About us
The project is looking for Hooks Hookes family members from England to join the test group. If you are interested please contact the project administrator. Some funding may be available to cover the testing cost.
10/11/2005 (first member is predicted to be R1b) Haplotype R1b, Anglo-Saxon/Continental (North Sea): Four sub-clades of R1b are derived from the repeats of DYS markers 390 and 391. The most common sub-clade is known as the Atlantic Modal Haplotype (AMH) with values of 24/11. The AMH is most common along the Atlantic coast from Spain to Scotland. The Anglo-Saxon sub-clade of R1b will have values of 23/11. If one's known ancestry is in the British Isles and one has R1b of this sub-clade, the odds are tilted against that being an "indigenous" R1b and toward being a NW European continental R1b brought to the British Isles by one of the historic invader/immigrant groups from Brussels, Holland, NW Germany, and Denmark. This tilt should be incorporated into all the other surname and related information you have about origins of your R1b. This represents Anglo/Saxon England populations after the Roman occupation ended in 410 AD but before the Norman/Viking populations in the early 1000's BC. This 23/11 Haplogroup is known as North Sea Baltic: DYS repeats of 24/10 are found throughout Europe and repeats of 23/10 are slightly higher in SE Germany and into Austria.
NOTICE: This is a YDNA Surname Project, our project is open to any FTDNA member as it does not require approval to join. As a result of this openness we are seeing a lot of testers who join but do not allow their results to be shared with either the project admin or other project members. Some who join may not be aware that project and admin permissions must be set to limited or advanced to be included in project research. All minimum settings will be removed as they do not benefit any project research goals. Once the settings are corrected to limited or advanced, members can join again.
