Here is a must read supplementary data spreadsheet, which lays out the percentages of R1b and particularly R-L21 M222+ per country and/or region: http://rspb.royalsocietypublishing.org/content/suppl/2011/08/18/rspb.2011.1044.DC1 Look at Tab "TableS1-HG frequencies" and then Column "T" I've extracted out the data on M222 and created images of it: 1. http://i56.tinypic.com/343jkuo.png - Summary of both studies results 2. http://i52.tinypic.com/2d8i1jb.png - Summary of each study separately Some interesting highlights on the frequency of M222+ are that: 1. EAST Ireland 20-25% of R1b is M222+ 2. West Scotland (14.29%) > North East Scotland (10.45%) > North West Scotland (6.25%) 3. France 6.24% 4. Germany 5.26% 5. Sweden 1.44% 6. Norway 1.45% Enjoy!

Paul, This is a hard read, so thanks for the summation which is very interesting and something that I would have missed since I only browsed the PDF doc this morning and gave up. Do you have any idea what mean by Ireland North and the rest? The French 6.24% is interesting to me because I match 61/67 with a man named Lafarlette whose family is French.
