Haplogroup E

Home
E (n = 3 / 2) I1 (n = 4 / 4) I2 (n = 2 / 1) J2 (n = 1 + 7 / 1) R1a (n = 1 / 1) R1b (n = 26 / 11)
E is the third most common haplogroup in Europe, after R1b and I1.  It is an ancient group that probably originated in the Middle East and is presently universal around the Mediterranean becoming widespread across northern and eastern Africa and southern Europe.  Some of the oldest populations in Britain (e.g., some Welsh towns) have concentrations of E as high as 40%. 

So far, three project members (plus a matching non-member) are Haplogroup E, plus an individual who is not a project member (n in parentheses).  Haplogroup E is finely divided by SNP mutations, so your project admin recommends being deep SNP tested.  I also recommend joining the E-M35 project, which you can do from your member page.  M78 is downstream of M35.

#106928 has a rare haplotype, with no matches at any level in the FTDNA database.  His nearest matches in the SMGF (Sorenson Molecular Genealogy Foundation [link died]) database are in the order of 7/7 and 20/26.  In other words, he has no significant match there, either.  Update:  Ancestry.com purchased SMGF and has taken the database offline, a considerable loss to family researchers.
Our subject has been given a gratis backbone SNP test by FTDNA, with the result that he is M35.1+.

These two individuals are a close genetic match (65/67) strongly supporting that they have a near common ancestor.  #81822, but not #81996, is showing up as a distant (61/67) match with a BECHTOLD who is not a member of the project.  If this BECHTOLD is reading this, I would like to urge him to contact me and join the project.  I would then like to urge him to upgrade to 111 markers, to see whether this latter match is merely coincidental or whether it indicates a common ancestor in genealogical time (I'm betting it does).  I would also urge #81996 to upgrade to 111 markers.

What constitutes a match?
Matches in other surnames are usually mere coincidence, so please ignore them — I'll let you know when you shouldn't!
For 12 markers:  9 or less is a non-relative; 10-12, please see this table compiled by FTDNA.
For 25 markers:  21 or less is a non-relative; 22-25, please see this table compiled by FTDNA.
For 37 markers:  31 or less is a non-relative; 32-37, please see this table compiled by FTDNA.
For 67 markers:  57 or less is a non-relative; 58-67, please see this table compiled by FTDNA.
For 111 markers:  100 or less is a non-relative; 101-111, please see this table compiled by FTDNA.
For any test:  0 matching markers, please contact NASA.
