Results on Genetic Testing Descendants of James HILL (b. 1763 in Pennsylvania, d. 1862 in Hardin County, Ohio) My original test was with Family Tree DNA as part of the HILL DNA Project, http://www.hilldna.com. FTDNA has predicted my haplogroup as I with strong indications of the subclade I1a. According to Relative Genetics my haplogroup is likely I1a. Most with the HILL surname are in haplogroup R, primarily R1b. Based on research and information provided by Ken Nordtvedt at his website, http://www.northwestanalysis.net/, my HILL line is Anglo-Saxon in origin, specifically within a transitional subclade whose ancestors eventually populated Scandinavia, becoming the majority of what is known as the Norse groups of haplogroup I. Using the map with percentages posted by Ken at http://www.northwestanalysis.net/Iweb5.jpg, the James HILL (1763-1862) paternal line is I1a-T (Transitional). This transitional group developed from the Anglo-Saxon lines which became the Norse lines. Currently I have not done any mtDNA testing.
