Thank you for the information.Haha. It’s what many Europeans have. They had an ancestor that carried the R1 haplogroup, and it eventually mutated and became R1b, and they in turn had more mutations, etc. A mutation occurs every few generations to one. R1b is a very basal haplogroup, and so is R1a. This is about R1b:
Major Subclades
- R1b-M269: The dominant European branch responsible for most Western European lineages.
- R1b-U106: Highly prevalent in Central and Northern Europe, strongly tied to Germanic ancestry.
- R1b-P312: Widely dispersed in Western Europe, splitting into regional branches like L21 (Atlantic Celtic/Britain and Ireland), U152 (Alpine/Italy and France), and DF27 (Iberian).
Now I can give an answer.
