Sorry for the duplication, I intended for this message to be a response to the Haplogroup I thread. -----Original Message----- From: corvettenutz@bellsouth.net [mailto:corvettenutz@bellsouth.net] Sent: Wednesday, March 29, 2006 7:45 PM To: SCOT-DNA-L@rootsweb.com Subject: RE: [SCOT-DNA] Re: R1a study The I Haplogroup indicates a Norwegian, Danish or Scandinavian heritage, there are several subdivisions of the I group. I1a is the most common. I am an I1a of either the Norse or Ultra Norse group. My Haplogroup is not the same as the other members in my surname project, which indicates either an adoption or out of wedlock birth. If you will google Ken Norveldt's website, there is a very good explanation of the I group and it's subdivisions.

My ancestors came from West Norway to Orkney (possibly via Caithness) and then to Shetland. I would like to know whether other R1a groups came via Norway or are there several sections of R1as?
