Results from my genetic sample submitted to the Sorenson Molecular Genealogy Foundation Project have been added to the public yDNA database. http://www.smgf.org I am a direct male descendant of James HILL (b. 1763 in Pennsylvania d. 1862 in Hardin County, Ohio). He married Sarah TIDD, daughter of Martin TIDD. More marker results are available at the HILL DNA Project website, http://www.hilldna.com. My sample has been recently upgraded to include 37 markers from the original 25, although the website has not been updated yet to reflect this. The results are in Group 27. http://www.hilldna.com/results.html http://www.hilldna.com/Group27.htm James HILL may be a descendant of or at least related to Luke Hill who was born in 1613 in England. The link for the Luke HILL line DNA record is below: http://www.ysearch.org/search_view.asp?uid=FNEJQ&viewuid=2FJJJ&p=0 My Sorenson results match with the marker values at the HILL DNA Project. Unfortunately only 17 markers have been tested thus far, although DYS 462 is included. The marker result of 12 indicates the James HILL line is Anglo-Saxon in origin, likely emigrating to England from northern Germany. The results are number 2 (17/17) using the following link: http://www.smgf.org/ychromosome/search_results.jspx?markerOrder=smgf&labStandard=FamilyTreeDNA_v1&searchType=surname&surname=HILL&surnameType=approximate&showCountries=on&showMissingData=on&showAllSurnames=on&DYS385_a=13&DYS385_b=14&DYS426=11&DYS447=23&DYS461=13&DYS388=14&DYS437=16&DYS448=23&DYS462=12&DYS389I=12&DYS438=10&DYS449=27&DYS463=21&DYS389B=15&DYS439=12&DYS452=31&DYS464_a=12&DYS464_b=14&DYS390=23&DYS441=16&DYS454=11&DYS464_c=15&DYS464_d=15&DYS391=10&DYS442=12&DYS455=8&GGAAT1B07=11&DYS392=11&DYS444=12&DYS456=14&YCAII_a=19&YCAII_b=21&DYS393=13&DYS445=11&DYS458=16&YGATAA10=12&DYS394=15&DYS446=13&DYS459_a=8&DYS459_b=9&YGATAC4=22&DYS460=10&YGATAH4=11
