the Family DNA Y-DNA37 test says I am in J-M172. means my ancient roots come from the Middle East?
Hi! Family name is Skupien from Odrowaz in southern Poland (Podhale or Galacia area). Grandmother Karoline Tomasik came from Sadkowa, Jaslo.
Was recently tested and found my most probable DNA is J-M172. My grandfather Andrzej came to US in 1897 to Buffalo NY. My father and two siblings were also born there. Moved to Chicago and ended up in Wisconsin. Family ended up with 9 siblings. My father Michael A. (Scupien) moved to Oregon, where I am living now. I do not have any information about Andrzej; if he had brothers or sisters, or the names of his father and mother. Any information will be appreciated. - Thanks!
Just joined the group and my story has just gone out (found my brother is J-M172) but I want to comment on the names Moore and Miller. In the four months I have been on FTDNA the three most common names that I am matching as shown across the top of the page are: 1. Johnson 2.Smith 3. Miller. Miller has recently changed to Moore. Neither Miller or Moore are common names in my family trees. I checked the profiles of the men and none had J haplogroup but thought it was interesting if a coincidence.
This was my first post. I am reposting in case there is someone who recognizes the name. Comment by Evelyn Margarita Hutto on July 29, 2009 at 9:41am
My y-dna numbers are 13 23 16 11 15-17 11 15 13 12 11, 28,14,9-9,12,10,27,15,20,32,13-15-16-18,10,11,19-1917,14,17,15,34-37,12,10.
37 markers from ftdna and no matches. Nothing on Ancestry.
This is a tough old game. Autosomal dna with ancestry thousands of low hits. Family Finder 350 hits 2-4th cousin best. Y-dna no hits J-M172. Mtdna 21 hits, dont recognise anyone. Any ideas. Looked at Conn surname group and none are J-M172. Always had a doubt about it. I am from Scotland. Names on my mothers side are Park, Scott, Muir, Sampson, Mitchell, Hamilton, Begg.
I had my uncle and great uncle tested and both came back with J-M172. The surname is REDING. I can only get back as far as my great, great, grandfather, John REDING, born 1832 in Hesse Darmstadt. His parents names are unknown. I had them tested through FTDNA and have uploaded my uncles info onto GEDMatch and so far the only match that I can confirm is a known cousin. Has anyone else with M172 also put their info on GEDMatch?
Clara Joyce Schaeffer Miller,
I am also a member of the J2 Haplogroup, specifically J-M172 and also am tracking the Miller surname. What specific area of Germany have you found this Miller? Obviously a long shot in finding a match but I have no idea where else I can start at this point.
