BAYMAN  MALE Y-Chromosone DNA (Ramsbury, Wiltshire, England)

Results from Oxford Ancesters in February 2004 show that my "probable" origin is Celtic.
The Y-Chromosome Signature for paternal ancestry for the 10 marker test to determine which
"Tribe of Britain" I come from is as follows:

DYS 19       DYS 388       DYS 390      DYS 391     DYS 392    DYS  393    DYS 389i    DYS 389ii-i    DYS 425     DYS 426
14                  12                       25                   11             13                 13                   10                16                 12                 12
(Note: If using ysearch to compare DYS 389i = 10 becomes 389-1 = 13, and, 389ii-i = 16 becomes 389-2 = 29)


"The modern day members of the clan...are found predominantly, though not exclusively in
Northern and Western Europe. The distribution in the following countries and among the following
peoples is: the Basques (90%), Poland (75%), Punjab (60%), Greece (35%), Uzbekistan (30%), the
Maori (30%), the Greenland Inuit (25%), the Fali of Mali (25%), the Saami (20%), Iraq (17%), the Cheyenne
(15%), the Kazbegi of Georgia (10%), the Mixtecs of Central America (10%), Iran (5%), the Navajo (5%)
and the Cook Islanders (5%)....Britain was first settled after the last Ice Age, about 9,000 years ago, by
hunter gatherers moving up from southern Europe..." (Source: Oxford Ancesters)

My mother's mtDNA shows a similar origin....thus making me very pure indeed or as Oxford Ancesters
put it "the most widespread and successful of the Seven Daughters of Eve.

CORNWELL  FEMALE mtDNA (Fen Ditton, Cambridge, England)

Results from Oxford Ancesters in December 2003 show that my  mtDNA tests for maternal ancestry
puts me in the "Helena" clan that are from a female 20,000 years ago in central and western eurasia as follows:

ATTCTAATTT           AAACTATTCT          CTGTTCTTTC           ATGGGGAAGC       AGATTTGGGT        ACCACCCAAG
TATTGACTCA          CCCATCAACA         ACCGCTATGT          ATTTCGTACA         TTACTGCCAG       CCACCATGAA

"Helana was born about 20,000 years ago on the strip of land that joins France and Spain, near what is now
called Perpignan...Helena's clan arrived in Europe from the Middle East, pushing their way along the Mediterranean
...we know they reached England about 12,000 years ago because DNA discovered from a young male skeleton
found in Gough's Cave in Somerset shows that he too belonged the the clan of Helena..." (Source: Oxford Ancesters)
