DNA Results R1b-FTA18300
Previous testing
The Mayflower DNA Project lists two patrilineal (all male line) descendants of John Billington. Neither of these individuals currently have any Y-SNP results. One individual has tested 111 Y-STRs. FTDNA has only predicted where the family falls under the R-M269 Haplogroup. Plugging in the 111 Y-STRs in the Nevgen Y-DNA Haplogroup Predictor gives a prediction falling somewhere below R1b-U106>>Z381>>L48>>Z8>>Z12>Z8175>CTS10742.
Next Generation Sequence/Whole Genome Sequence testing
As of June 25, 2022 two Big Y-700 test results have been posted to the Mayflower DNA web site. This result came back with a subclade of CTS10742, BY14508>BY145737>FTA18300. Further testing of Billington patrilineal descendants would possibly define subclade branches of the Billington family.
