I got the first 25 markers of my uncle's yDNA results, also early (expected on June 2).
Despite his Polish descent, his haplogroup is G2 (Ysearch ID 3VPV7). Could he descend from the Alans (a branch of the Sarmatians) who ruled southern Poland in the 5th century?

That's an intriguing hypothesis Igmayka:

What did you turn out to be?
Geographically, the Netherlands aren't that far from Sweden/Finland, etc.
I don't really know what to make of this.

maybe you should start from here:

Being I1a, as I am, you can very easily place your ancestry in what is now north-western Germany, Denmark, Netherlands, etc. In my communications with Ken Nordtvedt, he says mine looks like the Saxon version of I1a. He has also identified a version that is centered more up in Norway/Sweden.
Have you uploaded your results to Y-Search. I'd be interested in comparing your results to mine... Q3RY5

Well, that makes sense then. I just saw all these Finland / Iceland matches and started to wonder if Scandinavian meant limited to that, or the general area. The story was that my Sheets were Dutch, so maybe it is true then?
Here's my ID on ysearch: TKQJ3
I think my haplotype more matches the Nordic one, but I don't have all my markers yet, and there was one in particular marker I can't remember now that would help determin which version of I1a.
Thanks.
Paul
Edit: I found the marker, it was DYS462, which I don't have yet. I meant Norse version, not Nordic.Last edited by Paul_Sheats; 26 May 2006, 01:27 PM.

You must have patience [Stevo]. I sent my sample in back last September...still waiting.

I'll be damned! Good thing you told me that, or I'd really be waiting for a long time for DYS462 to come in!Actually, I did the free SMGF thing back in March, but I'm not holding my breath on that.
Could my haplogroup get more refined when the rest of my markers come in?
Or doesn't it work that way?
