Previous Y-DNA testing

Previous Y-STR testing through the Mayflower DNA Project and the Rogers/Rodgers DNA Project[1] has identified a Y-STR haplotype for the Mayflower Rogers lineage and has determined that the lineage belongs to the R1b-M269 Y-DNA haplogroup,[2] which is quite common in Western Europe.

NGS/WGS testing

One member of the My Rogers Family Tree DNA Project[3] has stated they are a Y-DNA descendant of Pilgrim Thomas Rogers. They also agreed to have a FGC Y-Elite test completed.[4] In addition, A Y-STR match to this kit[5] Has presumably taken a FTDNA Big Y test. The results of these tests documents where the Rogers family falls under: R1b-P312>Z290>L21>DF13>Z253>FGC3268>ZZ6_1>BY43439>FGC59524>FGC59535>FGC59523>FT260099.
