Lane way all dug out and we have a snowblower as well but some digging is needed, walks cleared and a run for the dog. We can now relax for the day and do our jigsaw puzzle. My it is cold out there but we are used to having this cold for a few weeks every winter. I just hibernate!
Just finished the H11 Newsletter. I am somewhat surprised that I am now into Volume 3 of this Newsletter. It was started on a whim and I have found, for the most part, something to put into it the last two years. I find it a good venue for any thoughts I have or any journal articles passed to me or that I have found.
It is an interesting subclade of H in that it is so small compared to the real giants in this subclade H1 and H2. However H is still 30% of the world's mitochondrial subclades which is a very large number perhaps as many as 2 billion people are H haplogroup or more. H11 is about 1% of that so 20 million people have that haplogroup. There are two major subclades for H11 - H11a and H11b and I have seen 70% H11a and 30% H11b so we are looking at 14 million H11a and 6 million H11b. I have not seen any actual further divisions percentage wise but I estimate there are at least 500,000 to 1,000,000 people who carry my particular subclade of H11a2a1.
After FT DNA published their new mitochondrial tree, I realized that as large as my study is I am looking at only about 20 to 25% of the results actually tested at FT DNA. Although I enjoy publishing what I find it does not really reflect a true picture of the subclades of H11 I rather suspect.

FT DNA Project:
There are now 294 members in our H11 project. Full
sequence results are completed on 254 members of the group. Interestingly 205
members of this group have also done Family Finder. Unfortunately it is not
possible to visually look at the Family Finder results as that would compromise
the privacy of individuals. However, you can look at your matches in Family Finder.

Denisovan Ancestry:
Recently I read an online blog
and discovered that this H11 individual also had a larger
percentage of Denisovan ancestry (2.2%). Testing my brother at National
Geographic 2.0 Project had yielded a result of 3.5% Denisovan. The average is
2.1%. H11 does appear to have “wintered” at the Ukraina Refuge during the Last
Glacial Maximum and many members of our group are from Eastern Europe. Is it
possible that other members of H11 also show a higher value for Denisovan?

3. Path ahead
1. FT DNA Project and Project Statistics:
There are now 254 members in our H11 project. Full sequence results are completed on 224 members of the group. Interestingly 174 members of this group have also done Family Finder. Thus far 217 members have provided maternal ancestor information. Eighteen members have not permitted access to their full results resulting in their being placed in a folder “results are private.” In some cases even when the results are listed as private members could have been assigned to their subclade if it is a terminal subgroup.
2. Value of doing mtDNA
Generally when speakers discuss DNA they tend to place mtDNA last in terms of value. Most tend to stress the value in doing yDNA and Family Finder. YDNA certainly if you are looking at your surname male line name especially if you are brickwalled. Family Finder is quite rapidly coming into its own as the most valuable of all the DNA testing. However, my own experience with mtDNA has been handy in my research. My great grandmother (maternal line i.e. my mother's mother's mother) is a relative unknown. Her name, Ellen Taylor, has been known to me since childhood. Her place of birth according to the census is Birmingham England. Her marriage has not yet been located and that would yield the forename of her father. Her husband as known to me was Edwin Denner Buller and indeed on all of the birth registrations of Edwin's and Ellen's children they are recorded as Edwin Buller and Ellen Buller formerly Taylor. But who was Ellen Taylor. Purchasing all of the relevant birth registrations for Ellen Taylor in Birmingham has yielded one likely candidate daughter of Thomas Taylor and Ellen Roberts. But is it she? Her death registration has her age as 37 years (my grandmother said her mother was 37 when she passed away from pneumonia (my grandmother was eleven years of age) in 1897). That was my starting point and I bought all birth registrations, as mentioned, within two years of that date.
When I first tested my DNA at National Genographic in 2006 I had discovered that I was H11. Transferring my results into FT DNA and further testing revealed first of all that I had almost no matches (2 only HVRI and HVRII) although that has grown through the years to 18 one step away (Full Genetic Scan) and one match (my brother). Another discovery back in 2007 was the Blood of the Isles Database which yielded two matches at the HVRI and HVRII level (this database does not have full genetic scan results). These two matches were located in Ayrshire, Scotland.
As autosomal testing developed (Family Finder at FT DNA, DNA relatives at 23 and Me, AncestryDNA), my countries of origin slowly developed over these three companies but especially with my testing at Living DNA. Emerging from all of this testing was Northern Irish/Southern Scottish ancestry. Hence my H11 result was pointing to an ancestry unknown to me and I do know all of my lines back to my 3x great grandparents (and further) except for my strictly maternal line.
Family lore also came to mind as I recalled my mother talking about a possible Irish ancestry or Scot. Scot would not be surprising as my Routledge lines are definitely Scot but Irish I do not (and still do not have) any proven lines there but my mtDNA is pointing the way and over time I may yet discover this line hidden to me. I am a great believer in doing your full genetic scan for your mitochondrial DNA.
3. Path Ahead
An in depth look at the results of the H11 haplogroup study will occur in either the first or the second issue of volume 2 of the H11 Newsletter. I have not yet heard any rumours of an update to the Phylo Tree but such an update would be most welcomed.

Branch: H11
Age: 10,800 +/- 7,300 Years Ago
Location of Origin: Europe
During the last glacial maximum members of this lineage took shelter in refugia within Europe. As the ice melted, these groups moved across Europe, resettling.
Today, this lineage is present most often in the Netherlands, where it is about 3% of maternal lineages. It comprises 2% of the population in Austria, Poland, and Denmark. Elsewhere in Europe, it is present in low frequencies around 1%. Note is also made that this branch is not accompanied by a major movement on their map and research on this branch is continuing.

An interesting way to look at the material in each project. Looking at the results it does perhaps give assistance to those still looking for the location from which their ancestor may have traveled in the case of people in the Western Hemisphere but nearly half of the members of our project live in Europe. I think the project will need to be much larger to really give any geographic location for particular subclades.

Background:
When I introduced the H11 Newsletter in February 2011
I was not sure whether I would try for twice a year or four times per year. I
have decided that visiting and reviewing the project four times a year is
probably better and I will attempt to stay with that schedule. Any items of
interest to members of the H11 haplogroup for submission in this newsletter
please submit to Elizabeth Kipp (kippeeb@rogers.com)
.
2.
FT DNA Project:
There are now 221 members in our H11 project. Full
sequence results are completed on 195 members of the group. There are some
members who have not taken any mtDNA tests but I have not removed them from the
project as eighteen of them have tested with the Genographic Project but not
yet at FT DNA. There are six kits recently purchased not yet returned.

Family Finder:
Family Finder Results within the Project may well
prove to be interesting but privacy concerns prevents me from sharing any of
these results with the group. However, you are able to go into your own
projects and see the Family Finder Results that you have.
5.
Upgrading of reporting by FT DNA:
FT DNA has now upgraded their assignment of
haplogroups to reflect the latest phylotree:
Within the study group we have members in every
sub-haplogroup except H11a5 (and it can be seen in the chart above that the
mutation C15040T marks this subgrouping). It is very helpful that FT DNA has
now started to assign members based on this version of the phylotree.

Recent publication – The Genetic History
of Northern Europe, Mittnik et al.
Thank you to one of the members of our study who sent
this link to me. With the Eupedia article the following mention of H11:
"H11 is found across most of northern,
central and eastern Europe, but also in Central Asia, where it might have been
propagated by the Indo-European migrations (see below). H11a was identified in
a Mesolithic hunter-gatherer from the Narva culture in Lithuania by Mittnik et
al."
7.
Blood of the Isles Database – Dr. Bryan
Sykes:
One of my first introductions to H11 was in the Blood
of the Isles Database back in 2007. This database actually had two members who
shared my mutations which prior to finding these entries I had only seen
several matches that I shared on FT DNA. I am in the process of testing at
Living DNA and knowing the locations for all of my lines back into the mid
1600s with the exception of my mtDNA line I am curious what I might discover.
The location for the two samples in the Blood of the Isles Database was
Argyllshire/Ayrshire, Scotland. Over the years I have found two other
individuals who trace back to this area and share my mutations. A number of
individuals who share these same mutations trace back to County Antrim,
Ireland. One of these individuals is descendant of the group of emigrants who
came with the Rev William Martin to the Carolinas in 1772 and have an ancestry
that goes back to Agryllshire/Ayrshire.

Haplogroup Analysis tool” and the website url dna.jameslick.com/mthap/ which
may interest readers of this newsletter. The explanation of the colours and
terminology, etc. :
You use
this particular tool in conjunction with your FASTA file. If you have completed
the complete genetic scan of the mitochondria then your FASTA file can be
downloaded from your mtDNA – Results page, scroll down to the bottom of this
page and on the lower right hand side “Download FASTA File.”
