These testers descend from the two sons of Myles who left descendants (Alexander & Josiah) and since they match each other, we are confident this is the Haplogroup of Myles Standish. In addition, other Standish's have done DNA testing, with some of them belonging to the R Haplogroup (so are not related to Myles Standish) while others document a close relationship to Myles Standish (falling into clades immediately above the Myles FT276288 clade). The Myles Standish family results fall under: I-M170>P215>CTS2257>L460>P214>S2525>S2519>S2497>L38>S2606>FGC29656>BY1183>Y18919>S4556>BY14000>FT277048>FT276288>FT276480 | |

+ | ===English Standish Family DNA results=== | ||
+ | The [https://www.familytreedna.com/public/Standish?iframe=ycolorized Standish DNA Project (Group 01)] includes two individuals who bear the Standish surname but do '''not''' descend from Myles Standish. One of these individuals claims ancestry going back to Ince, Wigan, Lancashire, England and can trace their line back to a Henry Standish, born 1743. The other individual claims ancestry going back to Glin Lodge, Ireland and can trace their line back to Rev. Richard Standish, born 1760. The Y-DNA clade of the English Standish line is I-FT276288, which is the parent clade of the Myles Standish clade of FT276480. The Y-DNA clade of the Irish Standish line is I-FT277048 which is the parent clade of FT276288. | ||
+ | |||
+ | On average a new SNP is discovered in Big Y-700 results roughly every 83 years (with a wide variation due to the random nature of SNP mutations). Myles Standish's I-FT276480 clade only consists of one SNP, so it's parent clade (FT276288) formed roughly 83 years before the Myles Standish clade. While it is possible Myles Standish may have been the first individual with the FT276480 mutation, it is more likely this mutation occurred one to four generations before him. This would roughly mean the parent clade of FT276288 formed roughly one to two centuries before Myles' estimated birth of c1587. | ||
+ | |||
+ | In a similar vein, the FT276288 clade is comprised of 4 SNPs, yet its parent clade FT277048 is also found in the Standish family. The fact the FT276288 clade contains four SNPs indicates FT277048 clade formed roughly two to four centuries before FT276288, yet the founder was likely a Standish as well. The Standish surname originated from the village of Standish in Lancashire, England.<ref>There is also a village of Standish in Gloucestershire, but since the Standish family is known to be from Lancashire, its origins certainly came from the Lancashire village.</ref> The first known reference to this village dates to 1178 and the first reference to an individual with the Standish surname was Ralph de Stanedis in 1206. | ||

Speculative Ancestry
See From Leiden to Plymouth Facebook group, especially Will of John Standish "the Son" In addition, https://www.familysearch.org/tree/pedigree/landscape/LYRF-1R1 documents a supposed ancestry for Myles Standish going back into antiquity.
Myles Standish had claimed in his will where he was heir to a Standish family from the Isle of Man but lost out on his inheritance through some means. He had made unsuccessful attempts to regain what he believed was his inheritance.
A Myles Standish (spelling varies) was a soldier in 1601 and was apparently being treated in a hospital in the Netherlands. Some have claimed he was the eldest son of John Standish "the son" (son of John Standish "the father") whose 1601 will was mis-filed under the year 1627. The will ordained "his children" (unnamed) as executors. The testator died 12 Dec 1601 and his property was transferred to his "only son" William in Mar 1601/2.
The Myles Standish (spelling varies) in the Netherlands has been said to have died 1 Nov 1601, but he also appears in later records at Leiden.
While this line is still unproven, it does explain how Myles claimed where he lost out on his rightful inheritance. He would have been the eldest son of John Standish "the son".

DNA Results I-FT276480
Previous Y-DNA testing
Previous Y-STR testing through the Mayflower Societyand the Standish surname DNA project has suggested that the Standish lineage belongs to Y-DNA haplogroup I (defined by the marker M170, among others); further, one Standish kit has been further classified as I-L38 based on Y-STR results.
NGS/WGS Results
Three patrilineal (all male) descendants of Myles Standish have taken the Big Y-700 test. These testers descend from the two sons of Myles who left descendants (Alexander & Josiah) and since they match each other, we are confident this is the Haplogroup of Myles Standish. In addition, other Standish's have done DNA testing, with some of them belonging to the R Haplogroup (so are not related to Myles Standish) while others document a close relationship to Myles Standish (falling into clades immediately above the Myles FT276288 clade). The Myles Standish family results fall under: I-M170>P215>CTS2257>L460>P214>S2525>S2519>S2497>L38>S2606>FGC29656>BY1183>Y18919>S4556>BY14000>FT277048>FT276288>FT276480
English Standish Family DNA results
The Standish DNA Project (Group 01) includes two individuals who bear the Standish surname but do not descend from Myles Standish. One of these individuals claims ancestry going back to Ince, Wigan, Lancashire, England and can trace their line back to a Henry Standish, born 1743. The other individual claims ancestry going back to Glin Lodge, Ireland and can trace their line back to Rev. Richard Standish, born 1760. The Y-DNA clade of the English Standish line is I-FT276288, which is the parent clade of the Myles Standish clade of FT276480. The Y-DNA clade of the Irish Standish line is I-FT277048 which is the parent clade of FT276288.
On average a new SNP is discovered in Big Y-700 results roughly every 83 years (with a wide variation due to the random nature of SNP mutations). Myles Standish's I-FT276480 clade only consists of one SNP, so it's parent clade (FT276288) formed roughly 83 years before the Myles Standish clade. While it is possible Myles Standish may have been the first individual with the FT276480 mutation, it is more likely this mutation occurred one to four generations before him. This would roughly mean the parent clade of FT276288 formed roughly one to two centuries before Myles' estimated birth of c1587.
In a similar vein, the FT276288 clade is comprised of 4 SNPs, yet its parent clade FT277048 is also found in the Standish family. The fact the FT276288 clade contains four SNPs indicates FT277048 clade formed roughly two to four centuries before FT276288, yet the founder was likely a Standish as well. The Standish surname originated from the village of Standish in Lancashire, England.[1] The first known reference to this village dates to 1178 and the first reference to an individual with the Standish surname was Ralph de Stanedis in 1206.

- ↑ There is also a village of Standish in Gloucestershire, but since the Standish family is known to be from Lancashire, its origins certainly came from the Lancashire village.
