May families 2,91,12,14 DNA R1b

DNA signatures of people with the MAY last name.       (18 pages in this post)   Family 2, Family 91, Family 12 and Family 14 This is Y-DNA test, and is passed from father to son   I started working on this, sort of Index cards, using the information on the DNA web site.  This in 2006, and it took about a couple of months.    You can check the source information at        http://www.richmark.com/q/maytree/May-Reconstruction.html   Mark May has been our webmaster.   I would like to mention, I am not a scientist expert on DNA.    My day job is as a Cartoonist.   I have worked in the Animation industry for many years.    In New York, Germany and Los Angeles.    And in Advertising agencies in Guatemala.      English is not my first language, so you may find some errors here and there.

Let's start

Below you will find a chart, based on the information provided, of the Origin of the earlier MAY ancestor of each DNA family. And a Phylogenetic tree of R1b (the largest May haplogroup) at 25 markers.    In 2006, I decided to organize all the information, and created a sort of Index cards for every MAY DNA family based on their unique DNA signatures, and group the participants into their corresponding DNA family.     Hoping it will make it more efficien
