    1. Re: [R-M222] Summary of a distracting series

They are given the designation of their terminal SNP - the last one they are positive for. I was one of the early testers of the Deep Clade test, and M222 was available then. Some other companies had SNP tests available prior to this, FTDNA was not the first to offer SNP tests. I don't think that is correct but I'd have to check with FTDNA. This is how SNP results are normally reported: M126-, M153-, M160-, M173+, M18-, M207+, M222+, M269+, M343+, M37-, M65-, M73-, P25+, P66-, SRY2627- Every SNP tested is listed and given a plus or minus. Lately, I've seen a lot of stand alone M222 tests. You can order them that way and not test for M269, L21 or P25. Even those without SNP tests are listed as M269 which is downstream from P25. So this little group of P25 results does not make any sense to me. John
