About Results Tables

Our Results Tables have been prepared using Dean McGee's Y-DNA Utility, which is a boon to genetic genealogy researchers everywhere. It has facilitated analysis and exposition of our results significantly, and we much appreciate it.

An Excel file of our raw data is available for researchers to download for manipulation and analysis, but trying to learn about our results by just looking at this file will make you go bug-eyed.

Reading Results Tables

In the results tables, participant IDs are in the leftmost column. IDs in bold type signify modal haplotypes. The first row of each Results Table shows marker names in FtDNA order and marker values are reported using FtDNA conventions. The row of marker values to the right of each participant ID is that participant's individual haplotype.

Participant Lineages and Group Relationship Diagrams for each of the groups (two diagrams in the case of Group 5) showing known conventional genealogical relationships among the participants can be reached from the links at the left of this page.

Researchers and others are welcome to use and discuss the data from this website, but it copyrighted and must not be published or posted elsewhere without explicit, written permission from the group administrator at DavidEwing93 at gmail dot com.

Any one who wishes to contact a project participant to discuss his lineage or otherwise should email the group administrator at DavidEwing93 at gmail dot com.

Highlighting

In each of the tables, participant haplotypes are compared to the modal haplotype in the second row of the table (below the row with marker names), and all differences are highlighted in different colors depending on how many steps of difference there may be at the highlighted marker. Except in Groups 6, 8 and 9, participant haplotypes are highlighted where they differ from the "Ewing modal haplotype." You can read about how modal haplotypes are constructed in
Modal Haplotypes and in Y-DNA Project Article 3 . The fact that we have used the shorthand label "Ewing" in the tables to identify the Ewing modal haplotype is in no way intended to imply that Ewing men who do not match it closely are somehow not genuine Ewings.

The Results Tables for Groups 6, 8 and 9 have different modal haplotypes that have been especially constructed for each of these groups. In these three tables, the second row has the Ewing modal haplotype, and both the Ewing modal and the participants' haplotypes are highlighted where they differ from the specific group modals. In Group 6, we have constructed a modal haplotype for just this group of men. In Group 8, we have used the Atlantic modal haplotype (the most common R1b haplotype) as characterized by John McEwan In Group 9, we have constructed a modal for just this group.

Additional Markers

Because of space constraints, the Results Tables show only 37-marker haplotypes, but some project participants have had additional markers tested. The rightmost three columns in the Results Tables show which participants have upgraded to 67-marker haplotypes, had DYF399X testing or had SNP testing, respectively. Clicking on any of the checkmarks in these columns will take you to a page where you can see the results on these tests.
