Hi Liz,
No it goes much deeper than that, the study I found was exclusively on R1b
and as I am of that haplogroup, so must be Francis Richard and also John
David.
It was saying that there are about at least nine sub divisions of this
Haplogroup. Nothing to do with R1a or any other derivation, just R1b which
accounts for 75% of the population of far Western mainland Europe and the
UK.
They have seemingly been able to calculate out from these nine sub divisions
into nine tribes of R1b who populated various parts of the UK.
If this is right, it would be interesting to know which of us tested belong
to which sub div of R1b?

Hi All,
I can tell you that those with R1b are from W Europe. R1a Eastern Europe.
I Nordic. J2 Semitic. E3b Semitic and Q3 Native American.
Basically the Lincs Catley's are Nordic. Tim your lot are Western Europe.
The Cambridge lot are Nordics.
Hope this helps a bit.
Liz
