I just posted this statement but have been eyeing that thread..on the Balkans etc..
Maybe I should start an Ireland and Tribes thread?Someone needs to help me out on it..like Tom or anybody else with R1b1c and other BIG haplogroup experience..
AND
My maternal grandfather is I1b1b and I have since the first of the year been employing an Irish researcher who definitely groups my family in Ireland in 3 Norman built villages since 1275.My greatgrandfather comes to this country as a child in 1869 from Fethard Tipperary a Norman walled town.
Additionally my sister and I both test strongly autosomally for Estonian and Polish.
The reason I have been doing the Irish stuff has to do with these matches..I wanted to make sure we did not skip in and out of Ireland fairly recently..we did not
My ancestry is primarily Irish.. 2/3 to 3/4 if not more...my paternal line,Carrow are from Antrim and Lochcarron Scotland c. 1643 when they come to Eastern Shore MD/VA/DE.
My mtDNA J2 is Margaret Lynch of Cork in 1840.
I do have an unknown grandfather but I ( And my sister)HEAVILY match other populations..including Salish NA which both Lucas at DNA Tribes and I have now discounted..
