Why do I have a Y?

Thank you for your help. As I wait for the results of the 37 marker test to come back I'm debating on upgrading to the 111 marker test, but you mentioned the Geno 2.0 test. Does the Geno 2.0 test everything the 111 marker tests. I guess my question is, is it best to take just one over the other or...

The results of my backbone test are in and they list my Y-DNA Haplogroup as R-M269. When I look at the SNP map, they have the group listed as R1b1a2 - M269, so is R1b1a2 the base group and I need to take additional SNP testing to get a more refined group?

So...I have so many thoughts...

Okay, for some reason, after the first edit, I'm no longer able to edit my previous post, but I found it.



So which value would I use for MitoSearch? Would I have to see test other immediate family members in the Maternial line to see if they have the mutation in that ...

My results for my HVR1 Differences from RSRS my first position is listed as T16093Y! So instead of Thymine, I have what?

Am I a mutant?
Have I evolved past Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine, and Guanine?
How do I enter my results into mitoSearch if there's no Y to choose?...

Thank you so much! This has been extreamly helpful! I do have one other question, and it's one that pretty much led me to the fourm. Am I missing something or not quite grasping something when I assume that my haplogroup should be more African located rather than European?
I've been doing the...

Thank you! Because of my matches FTDNA was not able to predict my Haplogroup with a 100% confidence so a "backbone SNP test" was ordered. Once that comes in I guess I'll know a lot more.

The odd things is, at Whit Athely's Haplogroup predictior, it predicted my Haplog group...

Here's my situation, I purchased the Y-DNA12 test and I received two exact matches for Ancestral Origins; country of Origin for those two matches were Denmark and United Kingdom. Well, I'm bi-racial and my father is of African descent. I was expecting more African based locations. Even my matches...
