    Hi, Nathan, I'm trying to find people to participate in a McKinstry Y DNA project I'm about to start at Family Tree DNA.  I'm awaiting results on my brother in law's father; he's a male line descendant of William McKinstry of Sturbridge, Massachusetts.   

     

    Are you by any chance descended from John McKinstry and Charity Gard, NOT through their daughter Catherine?   Her son is believed to be illegitimate.   A descendant of his had his Y DNA tested, but it probably is not McKinstry.

    Thanks for your replay, Nate.   

     

    Mahershal's haplotype is at SMGF.org. I figured it out- that's a process of deduction as they don't just give you the markers - and I think it was the great central European Celtic clade of R1b1b2.   And not its Germanic subclade to the north.      

     

    Yours,

    Dora
