11 haplotype "I" May families

MAY surnamed DNA families
Haplotype "I"
This blog post has 23 pages

The second largest Haplotype group in our MAY DNA project, is "I"

This Haplotype, as the MAY "R1b" is also quite common in Europe.    Specially on the Scandinavian and German areas.      And in the east coast of both the Irish and British islands.  Likely to the invasions from that side of Europe.

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.

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 their family trees, if you are familiar with your family and the information matches, you may look into it (they will be posted later).


Here some of the charts I made.    In the beginning DNA tests had only 10 Markers, then it went to 12, up to 25, then up to 37...up again to 67 and today is 111.

This charts I made with 12, are interesting, however, it will make you match so many people in the Databases.    People with Haplotype "I" are related to all the descendants of the first "I"

We suggest, if you are contemplating joining us in our project to go for at least 32 marker test.



Here you can see how close or far is each family.   family 21, has 5 tests....or family 76 only one.    Or how close 56 is to 68 and 36.


In this chart, you can see in the right bottom corner several at a distance of 450 years.

Notice, test 1A and 68 are far from the center group
below details of the center area of the chart. 

 This is a chart of the DNA markers used for the comparison.
 Next is an estimate of how long ago, two different individuals, may have had a common ancestor.   As a rule, they mentioned about a mutation (a number change, up or down) every 150 years.    Between, my distant cousin and I (7 generations apart) we have one mutation on 37.    Our common ancestor lived from 1755 to 1815.
 This chart is another way at looking at the results

Let's start

About MAY families and DNA . For several years, I have been involved in what became a pretty large project.    Myself and other MAY started a Genealogical DNA project.        http://www.richmark.com/q/maytree/May-Reconstruction.html Toda y, as I start this Blog, we have 264 with the last name MAY or a variant  MAYE, MAYS, MEY,  participating in our project.      I been aware, if you visit the website, it seems to have so much information and navigating though all numbers and descriptions of May families feels complicated. 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 p...

MAY DNA families 52-34-11-99-4A-44-19-63-66-3-88-87-97-18-28-8

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...
