I have also done both my ydna and mtdna through familytreedna (funnily enough they never responded one of my emails).<br />I am haplogroup A (most likely A2 according to james licks mtdna website) due to mutations. It was been amazing to find some of my origins and my identity. I have also ordered the D9S919 Alfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17601683048782969030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8641680.post-47964593777761264622013-01-16T13:33:50.890-05:002013-01-16T13:33:50.890-05:00Yes, the kindness of strangers!
