M222+ folks should join. R-M222 subclades include A18726, A223, A259, A260, A566, A725, BY198, DF104, DF105, FGC23742, FT45504, S566, S568, S658, S588, Z2959, so they should join. STR matches are also welcome. This includes people who match the Irish I/Northwest Irish modal haplotype. This project is consistent with the R1b Project System(tw).
*** Goals >>> 1) Connect to family, extended families, clans, origins and migrations, 2) Support family research with full genetic genealogy support, 3) Discovery of the Tree of Mankind’s paternal lineages.
*** Themes and Methods >>> A) Refined subgrouping to terminal (most youthful) haplogroups, B) Sorted by Tree of Mankind branching from the Haplotree, C) Long SNP ancestral paths to support Group Time Trees, D) Discussion groups/activity feeds for help and research, E) Public display of FTDNA project reports for haplogroups/haplotypes, surnames, EKPAs, F) Privacy protection for full contact names and info by compliance with FTDNA standards.

*** Key Steps to Take and Project Operations are on the About/Background page. For Q&A check the project Activity Feed or R1b.YDNA FB group or R-M222 groups.io >>> https://groups.io/g/r1b-m222haplogroupandsubclades
