Subject. An unusual Libey family DNA signature.
I would appreciate it if someone could put me in touch with Gary Libey. He has taken an
Ancestral Y-DNA test and posted his results in FTDNA's online Myers Surname project.
There may possibly be a Myers - Libey family connection.
Gary has an uncommon and in fact almost unique DNA 17-14-10 marker combination result
that survives today in Wales and south England. If my research holds up, it is the genetic
footprint of early Celtic Britons who were present before the Roman army entered the
isles.
Today, there are over 40 surnames on my list, one of which is Libey. This particular
surname is very interesting because of its possible origins and it is under-represented on
my list.
So far, this is the largest genetic clade in Wales and south England today however the
surnames themselves are not limited to the British Isles and Ireland but occur across west
Europe.
I would like to see more Libey family surnames included and I would certainly like to
get in touch with Gary.
