Hi everyone. I had a thread previously introducing myself, and my results were put online today. I did the 37 marker test. My surname is McCray, however it looks as though my paternal great grandfather's father may not have been a McCray, though I have no idea what his name was.
I am a member of the R1b1b2 haplogroup.
My allele results (in FTDNA order)...
13 24 14 11 11 14 12 12 11 13 13 29 17 8 9 11 11 25 15 19 29 13 13 15 17 11 11 19 23 14 15 18 18 37 37 12 12
......
I have a total of 706 12 marker matches, 96 25 marker matches, and 10 37 marker matches.
Of those, 19 of the 25 marker matches are exact. I don't have any exact on the 37 marker level, only one genetic distance of 2.
Is it common to have so many matches?
Anyway, I'll talk about my 25 marker exact matches.
I have NO McCrays or any variation of the name that are an exact 25 marker match. 3 of the 19 exact matches are Bryan/O'Brien, 3 are Butler.
There are lots of distance-1 McCraws/McGraws, but also lots of O'Briens/variants.
Also, my SMGF results show, of the top 10 matches (there are no exact on there), 8 are O'Briens/Bryan, etc.
I'm not sure where to go from here. Does anyone have any suggestions?
