DNA results J2a1-PH3882
Previous Y-DNA testing
The Bass(e) surname DNA Project Group: Descendants of Deacon Samuel Bass of Massachusetts currently list two individuals who claims to be a patrilineal (all male line) descendant of Deacon Samuel Bass of Massachusetts (father of John). One of them has done Y-111 STR testing and FTDNA predicts they fall under Haplogroup J-M172. Plugging the 111 Y-STR results into the Nevgen Haplogroup predictor gives a result of: J2a1 Z387>L70>PH3882 with a 97.1% probability.
NGS/WGS testing
We need direct male-line descendants of John Bass to WGS/NGS test to both confirm the lineage as well as to refine the haplogroup further and delineate descendant clades.
Speculation
The J2a haplogroup is rarely found in England. While uncommon overall, it is mostly found in areas formerly part of the Roman Empire. It is known where the Roman Empire sent auxillary troops from various parts of its empire to Brittania (now England) during their occupation of the island. Some auxillary troops stayed in the area they were stationed after they retired from the service and raised families. As such, it is possible the patrilineal (Y-DNA) ancestor of this Bass family may have been one of these auxillary soldiers who served in what is now England.
