Mitochondrial DNA Haplogroup K

Hi Everyone,

I am a K1a10a - also part of Bill Hurst's group. Have done all the mtDNA testing that I can at present, but at the FGS Conference in Birmingham last week I decided to do Family Finder. Then if I can only get my brothers to test their YDNA - maybe Christmas presents this year for one of them will be a testing kit.

I tested my mtDNA because I am stuck on my mother's mother's mother's mother - my mother was Lillan Foote Hanlon, my grandmother was Mary Alice Sullivan Foote, my great grandmother was Leona Pence Sullivan and my great-great grandmother was either Elizabeth or Eathelbert or both...I have no last name and have been working on it for years. Leona was born in TN (all my mother's line is from the south) but I have not a clue about Elizabeth.  That is my major brick wall.

I was wondering if anyone has ties to either North or South Carolina?  That is last known place of my maternal gr grandmother and I am looking for clues.  Thanks.

Hi, i'm new to genealogy, and i am K2A I am adopted and don't know anything about my family so I am using  DNA to help me find some sort of closure as to the mystery of where the heck i came from!

Hi, I'm K1c2 and interested in that history.

I'm in the K2a group.  I have German ancestry on the maternal side of my family.  My Minnesota Grandmother's surname is Knutzen.  Her father, born in 1852, is from Bergenhusen, Schlewswig-Holstein, Germany.  GGM Knutzen, also from Bergenhusen, was a Gosch (lots of different spellings here) and her mother was a Schömer.

Hi,  I am  also a member of the subclade K1a4a1. I just had a full mtDNA sequence done at Family Tree DNA. So far, I have traced my maternal side back to Virginia in 1742. I still have a lot of studying and reading to do before I understand most of this.

I am K2a, just got my results. Since I'm Ashkenazi Jewish, it seems like I am most likely K2a2a. I have surnames Greenholtz and Tillim on my maternal line from Poland, Russia.

I am a K1C2...which I guess is rare for the K group. Any other K1C2's here?
