DNA Results R1b-FGC48713

Previous testing

FTDNA's Chandler DNA Project[1] subgrouping: Group 013 has a number of folks who claim Edmund Chandler as their Most Distant Known Patrilineal Ancestor (MDKPA) and are also close Y-STR matches. Two of these individuals have SNP tested to: R1b-U106>>U198>DF93>DF94>FGC48723>FGC48713

NGS/WGS testing

NGS/WGS testing is needed to confirm the prediction (above) as well as potentially further refine the haplogroup.
