Just having received my first panel of 12 results, I was wondering if others here who are R1a1 have received a 15 in the 393 allele? (And I'm a newbie, so please excuse if I've posted this in the wrong place, or have my terminology slightly confused.)

A 15 is pretty rare.

Many thanks for your reply and the link. On this first round of results, I have only a couple of exact matches in England, and to three others with my surname in America. That's it. On the next level out (2-step mutations), I have very few matches either, with single matches in Scotland, the United Kingdom, England, Germany, Iceland, Kazahkstan and Poland.
I suppose I thought there might be more matches in the first results, but I think it's a somewhat rare haplogroup in the British Isles, where my ancestors came from.

One can also pretty nice toy around with http://www.yhrd.org too.
I checked where in Europe a DYS393=15 is most common.
Its England, Gotland (Swedish island), Blekinge (southern coast of Sweden) and the north of Austria.

Perhaps.....

Perhaps your Anglo-Norman ancestor descended from a Angle or maybe a Norman, both apparently had roots in Scandinavia....

Austria and the southern coats of Sweden are full of R1a types.
Well England... could be Vikings or Scythian mercenaries from the Romans....Last edited by Paul_Johnsen; 3 July 2009, 02:22 PM.

This is interesting about the 393=15 locations. I saw on one chart quite a number of the 15 values in England. Paul, are there other locations where such a value is common, and if so, does that say anything about my ancestory? Or is it just a genetic fluke that isn't territorial specific?
