Unmerged lineages (kits):

The following two kits match rather closely with one another and also with a kit 84495 above. Kit 189276 and 191581 uniquely share a common value of 30 in DYS449... They also share a 37 in CDYa along with kit 84495 shown in the lineage above.

Kit 189276 This Phillips kit only matches well with 191581 and some with two other men of this line. He has a 13 at DYS393 which suggest he may be part of the line of "2. Nathaniel Phelps – b. 1626/27, Crewkerne, Somerset, England, d. 1702, Northampton, Hampshire, MA "

Descendant 191581 DYS393=13

These two kits , 200429 and 161814, match well with this William line. They share a mutation of 11 at DYS391 which is often an indicator/tracer of a family branch. I personally place more emphasis on this than the genetic distance shown in our reports. However, curiously kit 55020 also has a 11 at DYS391 but he has a 12 at DYS393 rather than a 13 that 200429 and 161814 have. This is a bit perplexing. and might be explained as coincidence in the lineage of 55020. Interestingly he also has two other unique mutations.

The below YDNA results table list all the men of this cluster. The first row of the first table shows the modal or most frequently observed value. and is often the value of the common ancestor. The calculated modal can be misleading with a small sample, but for now those values are most likely what may have been the y-dna of the common ancestor. The colors indicate the differences from the modal values. Tables were create using a tool found at this site which approximates the analysis at FTDNA.

FTDNA's comment: "It is obvious from our observation of 10's of 1000's of samples that some markers change or mutate at a faster rate than others. Therefore not all markers should be treated the same for evaluation purposes. The markers in red below have shown a faster mutation rate then the average, and therefore these markers are very helpful at splitting lineages into sub sets, or branches, within your family tree." FTDNA also says that when a red fast moving marker mutation alone implies a wrong branch, strong consideration or preference should be given to proven paper trails.
