Once thought to be German origins, new evidence points to Ireland/Scotland

This family has been validated with two distant cousins descended from different brothers who were sons of George MAY.

Their results on a 37-marker test show one mutation. This is from six transmission events for one testee and seven transmission events for the other testee. 

This is HG 1. 

They are 34/37 and 35/37 to family 64 who are not thought to be of German origins. Enrique is testee 1 (FTDNA kit 1596) and Keith is testee 2 (FTDNA kit 3227).

This family is 12/12 to family 160 for Enrique and 11/12 for Keith. 

Also 103/111 to family180. 

Also 37/37 for Keith to family 196 and 36/37 for Enrique to family 196. 

Keith is 25/25 to family 246 and Enrique is 63/67 to family 246. 

Also testee 1 is 107/111 to family 297, and testee 2 is 109/111 to family 297.
