DNA is in the process of updating the mtDNA Haplotree. At the moment there are
16 subclades under H11 on the mtDNA Haplotree. H11 is separated into H11a with
12 subclades and H11b with 1 subclade. In Volume 3 Issue 1 I have tentatively
broken down H11 into H11 into 5 subclades, H11a into 40 subclades, and H11b
into six subclades. Not all of these divisions will necessarily become
established subclades. I may be actually seeing some personal mutations as
supporting a subclade because I can not necessarily tell if I have
siblings/first cousins testing and it is likely that they would share the exact
same mutations. Our numbers are still much too small to definitively declare a
particular group of mutations as a subclade. But the presence of more than one
member sharing particular sets of mutations is very interesting and, if the
person is not known to you, may provide information on your maternal line

FT DNA Project:
There
are now 342 members in our project. A total of 290 members have added their
maternal ancestors information. However, we still only have 49 gedcoms
uploaded.

Within the study group
we have members in every sub-haplogroup except H11a5. I will not do a breakdown
of the various groups in this newsletter. Generally I will do that in Issue 1
of each year.

Changes in how a project administrator
can view your results
FT
DNA has upgraded their access to accounts so that the default is Group Access
only. If you wish to have your results included in the project then you must
grant Limited Access to the Administrator. Minimum access means that I can not
see any earliest ancestor information that you may have added to your project.

H and HV Project
The
suggestion was made that I refer to the information found on the “mother” page
for our H11 project namely The Mitochondrial DNA Haplogroup H and HV Project. For
the last several years you must first join the H and HV Project before you can
join the H11 Project and so you should find this project in your “joined”
projects.
If
you go to “About” in the left-hand navigation panel of the main page of the H
and HV Project and then select “Goals” there is a lot of interesting
information about the International Society of Genetic Genealogy (I am a
member).
The
Wikipedia section has come a long way since I have looked at it and I will
update the H11 with all the discoveries that having so many of us in the
project has provided over the next couple of months.
There
is information on the Haplogroup H project and in the list below that you will
find the link to the H11 project that most of you will have used to join the
project. I have been the Administrator for quite a long time (I think 2008
perhaps).
An
interesting addition is the H Subclade Discovery Project and will will try to
learn more about this new initiative.
