In England is found frequently in areas that were under the Danelaw.   The distribution of Haplotypes on May surname is as follows: I personally tested my DNA, with Family tree DNA ...and the results are from them. However, I also tested with Oxford Ancestors and Sorenson Genealogical Genetics.  There I found a few more May surnamed DNA that I included. http://www.smgf.org/pages/ydatabase.jspx Besides the fact that some of the DNA markers are different There is no way to comunicate with them, however, if you visit smgf website, their results are linked to thei

16 MAY surnamed families with R1b DNA Through DNA we have identified 40+ May surnamed Families.    Of these, 20 are Haplogroup R1b.   (there is a chart in previous blog post) The index cards, for this May families 16 are listed in here and 4 in the previous blog post Just to give a perspective.    R1b haplogroup, is quite common on the Atlantic area of Europe.  It was found from what today is Spain, France, up to the British Isles.    And from there, to the center of the continent...up to Germany and Switzerland.       In areas as the West of Ireland and West of England and Scotland, is up to 98% of todays population.      Now days, the test is able to identify more branches and R1b is sort of a  general group who are the descendants of a very distant Ancestor. The Family number All May surnamed participants on the MAY DNA project are assigned a number, as they joined.    I am following that number.      When you look for the results of your DNA, they will have information
