Hi all, I am in no way knowledgeable about haplogroups and genetics so I need a little education right now.
LivingDNA have given me my haplogroup as E-V13 and my terminal SNPs as "L142.1, L542/PF2220, Page102, PF2211/V13, PF2210/V36" which on the ISOGG tree equates to E1b1b1a1b1a.
On SNP Tracker this gives my V13 location in the Albania region.
However, I also have CTS5856 (I have no other SNPs I can see below this) which ISOGG puts me as E1b1b1a1b1 and so, I presume, 'earlier' than E1b1b1a1b1a, but this SNP appears as a subclade of V13 on the phylo tree? Also, SNP Tracker places CTS5856 further along the migration path in the Slovenia region.
This seems a little confusing to me - which is the correct interpretation of where 'I' originate?
Finally, I can trace my male line back to my 8th great-grandfather and his marriage in 1673 in Derbyshire, England and each subsequent birth (except mine) within 20 miles radius, so pretty settled. My surname is post-Norman conquest patronymic and likely Germanic in origin. LivingDNA says I'm 97% English (primarily Central England ie Derbyshire) and 3% South Germanic.....
.... so a couple of questions,
would I be right in thinking my ancestors route to England could be from CTS5856 appearing in Slovenia, maybe up to Austria, through Germany, to France/Belgium finally crossing the Channel around 1000 years or so ago?
And, a general haplogroup question - why do I have no further downstream variants? What causes the variations to stop happening?
Many thanks for any help you can give, it will be much appreciated.
