William Smith b.1678 and haplogroup R-M269-106(Post ID 3573 )
July 22, 2024 Times Viewed:(1870)

This William Smith is somehow listed on the R-M269-106 Haplogroup along with James Smith and Alexander Smith, and their various descendants, several of which have submitted their YDNA to this website. https://www.smithsworldwide.org/tng/gbookd.php?id=2743&tree=tree1

The branch for William Smith appears to originate from kit N144**(R-Z198 England).

I don't know enough about the process to decipher why he might be on the R-M269-106 branch. Can someone please explain? Or, tell me if this inclusion is an error, in which case his data should be removed.

Thank you,
Tim Smith

Looking for male Smith desc of William Smith b 1678 Northumberland Co VA (Post ID 2784 )
October 20, 2022 Times Viewed:(348)

The Smith DNA Project has a couple of people in the project who have not done any type of DNA but have a tree. We would like to see if there is a male Smith with a strong line to Willliam Smith who would consider doing a YDNA test in order to see if there is a match on YDNa. Lines were also in Orange Co VA and Madison Co VA October 20, 2022
