Steven Pinker is a Canadian experimental psychologist, cognitive scientist, linguist, and popular science author. Although J2b2 itself was formed 14,000 years ago, almost all European J2b2 members belong to the L283 branch and share a common patrilineal ancestor who lived 6,000 years ago. In the 17th century, the Barclay de Tolly, a branch of the Barclay of Towie from Banffshire, migrated to Mecklenburg, and later to what is now Latvia and Lithuania. They descend from Reynold Bush (1600-1686) who emigrated from England (Fering Parish, Essex) to the Massachusetts colony about 1640. They descend from Richard Stockton (1665-1709) from Princeton, NJ, whose lineage was determined to be G2a-L497 > Z1816 > FGC809 > Z39863 by the Stockton Surname DNA Project. tested the DNA of Birger Jarl and his son Eric Birgersson, and they were identified as members of haplogroup I1. It is likely that J2 men had settled over most of Anatolia, the South Caucasus and Iran by the end of the Last Glaciation 12,000 years ago. Two main subclades divide haplogroup J2: J2a (M410, L152, L212/PF4988, L559/PF4986) and J2b (M12, M102, M221, M314). Burt Bacharach (b. Both have been the subject of works by Walter Scott. In human genetics, Haplogroup J-M172 or J2 [Phylogenetics 1] is a Y-chromosome haplogroup which is a subclade (branch) of haplogroup J-M304. STR markers are used to specify. Clan Chattan is a confederaton of Highland Scottish clans. The Romans probably helped spread haplogroup J2 within their borders, judging from the distribution of J2 within Europe (frequency over 5%), which bears an uncanny resemblance to the borders of the Roman Empire (once concessions are made for the Germanic invasions that appear to have lowered the frequency of J2 between Belgium and Switzerland). Y21500 has a TMRCA of 3700 years and is also found in Russia, which suggests an Indo-Aryan origin - perhaps one of the J2a1 subclades assimilated by R1a invaders in Central Asia before conquering the Indian subcontinent. Predicted Y-DNA haplogroup G2a, based on ancient Y-STR profiles. The origins of the clan are unclear, but one hypothesis is that Donal Dubh, the first chief of Clan Cameron was descended either from the Macgillonies. They became the ancestors of a number of kuge (court aristocrat) families like the Ichij, Nij, Konoe, Kuj, Saionji and Takatsukasa, as well as of samurai clans, such as the Adachi, Ashikaga (Fujiwara), Azai, Date, Gam, Honda, Ii, It, Katakura, Kikkawa, Nabeshima, Niwa, Ryzji, Shni, Tsugaru, Uesugi and Utsunomiya, among many others. As such he must have belonged to R1b-U106 > Z381 > Z301 > L48 > L47 > Z159 > FGC15335 according to the Hemingway Y-DNA Project. Baldwin won two Primetime Emmy Awards, three Golden Globe Awards, and seven Screen Actors Guild Awards, making him the male performer with the most SAG Awards in history. [11] Their common maternal ancestor, Princess Alice of the United Kingdom, and her mother, Queen Victoria, must therefore have shared this haplotype. Lyndon B. Johnson (1908-1973), the 36th President of the United States, was identified as a member of haplogroup E1b1b1 through the Johnson/Johnston/Johnstone DNA Surname Project. The I2b-L415 & I2c-L596 Haplogroup Project was able to determine that the haplotype of the Georgian house of Tsitsishvili was I2c2b2. Cordell Hull (1871-1955) was an American politician from Tennessee and the longest-serving U.S. Secretary of State, holding the position for 11 years (19331944) in the administration of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt during most of World War II. 1 @ DYS 385b-385a 1 @ DYS 393 Modern Cretans have the highest percentage of G2a (11%), J1 (8.5%), J2a (32%), and L + T (2.5% together) in Greece (and the highest percentage of J1 and J2a in all Europe for that matter), the three haplogroups associated with the Kura-Araxes culture. A website published the modal haplotype of Minamoto no Yoritomo (1147-1199), the first shogun of the Kamakura shogunate. Their genetic analysis demonstrated that the two men were actually half brothers, sharing the same mother but different fathers. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Lowland Scottish Clan Montgomery, whose chiefs have held the title of Earl of Eglinton since 1508 and of Earl of Winton since 1859, belongs to haplogroup J2a1-L26 > Z6064 > Z6055 > Z6057 > Y7013 > Y7010 > Y13128 > Y14434 > Y14439 > Y16842 > Y22056 (aka Z40262) according to the results from the Montgomery DNA Project. [citation needed]. Hull received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1945 for his role in establishing the United Nations, and was referred to by President Roosevelt as the "Father of the United Nations". The American magazine publisher Henry Luce (1898-1967) belonged to haplogroup I2-M223-Isles-E L1193+, (a.k.a. Based on the observation of two HVR1 sequence differences, it was concluded that it is highly unlikely that the woman was the king's mother. The high incidence of J2a in Italy is owed in great part to the migration of the Etruscans from western Anatolia to central and northern Italy, and to the Greek colonisation of southern Italy.

According to this Japanese blog, patrilineal descendants of Emperor Higashiyama had their Y-DNA tested and all belonged to haplogroup D1b1a2 (IMS-JST055457/CTS107), formerly known as D2a1b. J2 seems to have been the dominant Haplogroup in ancient Greece indicating, perhaps, a migration from the East, especially when combined with autosomal DNA test results. Human Y chromosome haplogroup J1-M267 is a common male lineage in West Asia. He was accompanied by a woman with similar admixtures, and both possessed typical Pontic-Caspian Steppe mtDNA (I1a1 and W3a). The Curtin family belongs to the deep clade Y14698 (aka FGC9962), downstream of Z7706 and Y14699. The drawback of this hypothesis is that it doesn't explain why R1b lineages strongly outnumber J2b2 in Europe but not in South Asia. Giuseppe Garibaldi (1807-1882), the general, politician and nationalist who played a large role in the history of Italy, probably belonged to haplogroup E-V13 based on the Y-DNA results from another Garibaldi from the same province in his ancestral Liguria. Elvis's paternal grandfather was born out of wedlock and got his mother's surname. The House of Bernadotte, which has been the royal house of Sweden since in 1818, and also of Norway between 1818 and 1905 belongs to R1b-DF27 > Z195 > Z272 > S450 > Z295 > S25783 > CTS4065 > S16864 > A5000 > FGC39239 according to the testing of a cousin of King Gustaf V. The dynasty was founded by Jean Bernadotte, a former marshal of Napoleon, who was elected the heir-presumptive to the childless King Charles XIII of Sweden, and became King Charles XIV John. The M4 Sherman, the most widely used medium tank by the Allies in World War II, was named after General Sherman.

Danson has been nominated for 17 Primetime Emmy Awards, winning two; ten Golden Globe Awards nominations, winning three; one Screen Actors Guild Award; and one American Comedy Award and has been awarded a star on Hollywood's Walk of Fame. Because mtDNA breaks down more slowly than nuclear DNA, it is often possible to obtain mtDNA results where other testing fails. Edmund Randolph (1753-1813) was the seventh Governor of Virginia, the second Secretary of State, and the first United States Attorney General during George Washington's presidency. His son, Richard Taylor (1826-1879) was a Lieutenant General in the CSA and became army commander in the Trans-Mississippi Theater.

In 2005, geneticist Bryan Sykes asked for DNA samples from clan chiefs (Lord Godfrey Macdonald, Sir Ian Macdonald of Sleat, Ranald MacDonald of Clan Ranald, William McAlester of Loup and Ranald MacDonnell of Glengary) to complete the project, and all matched the presumed Somerled haplotype. The Phoenicians, Jews, Greeks and Romans all contributed to the presence of J2a in Iberia. The most famous member of the clan was probably the astronaut Neil Armstrong, who was the first person to walk on the Moon, and who took with him a piece of the Clan Armstrong tartan.
