Hello List,
First results have returned for member #146407, a patrilineal descendant of John
W. CARRICO (1826/7->1880) of Prince William and Fauquier Cos., VA. Not only
have his results returned over a month early, all but the last six markers have
returned at once. I hope this keeps up!
Not surprisingly his results prove he's a descendant of Peter CARRICO I, 1674
immigrant to Maryland, though how he connects to him is unknown.
It is presumed, though not proven, that the CARRICOs of three adjacent counties
in northwestern Virginia (viz., Prince William, Fauquier, and Culpeper) --
counties near, if not adjacent, to Charles and Montgomery Cos. in MD -- are
descended from the oldest, earliest resident in Prince William County, namely,
William CARRICO (c1750s-c1810s).

As far as I know, no one has connected William to Peter I, nor has anyone
connected John W. to William, but based on geography, it's probable they do
connect.
In an earlier message today, I was complaining that no one has a GD (genetic
distance) of more than one from the family's modal haplotype. So, in the "ask
and you will receive" department, here we have our first family member with a GD
of two from the CARRICO family modal haplotype.
This descendant of John W. CARRICO carries the mutation from 37 to 36 at CDYb,
matching him to James T. CARRICO of Washington Co., KY, and Charles CARRICO of
Sullivan Co., IN, while at the same time having a value of 10 at DYS391, unlike
everyone else's value of 9 at that marker:

This is a connection I certainly did not expect:

CDYb is a volatile marker, so there's an outside chance it has happened more
than once in the family, but I doubt it. Eventually, with enough cousins
tested, we'll be able to tell for certain. Testing advanced markers also helps
because if they share this mutation, they should share most of their other
mutations, too.
