John Hayward (Y-DNA)
Contents
Status summary
Completed as of October 1, 2020:
- Recruiting additional direct male-line John Hayward descendants for further SNP testing - anyone interested in submitting their DNA for testing should contact MayflowerDNA1620@gmail.com
- Y-SNP predicted to fall under R1b-P312>>U152>Z56>Z145
Still to do as of October 1, 2020
- NGS/WGS test multiple descendants of John Hayward to firmly place family clade as well as test descendants to discover any subclades unique to descendants lines

DNA results R1b-BY76408
Previous Y-DNA testing
The Howard (etc.) Y-DNA Project subgroup: R1b - Lineage 05 has one individual who claims George Hayward was their Most Distant Known Paternal Ancestor (MDKPA) and a second individual claiming William Hayward b. 1405 d 1450. No one in this subgroup has undertaken any SNP testing, and FTDNA predicts this group falls under R1b-M269. Two of the individuals in this subgroup have done 111 Y-STR testing. Plugging in these STR values into the Nevgen Haplogroup Predictor gives a 100% probability of it falling under R1b-P312>ZZ11>U152>Z56>BY3548>Z43>Z145.
NGS/WGS testing
Two individuals in the above project have recently taken the Big Y-700 test at Family Tree DNA. These two individuals have been assigned the following haplogroup: R>Z145>BY1823>BY28794>PF6582>PF6577>BY3953>FGC36897>FGC36903>BY3965>BY3957>BY142294>BY144706>BY76408
Further needed testing
We need additional direct male-line descendants of John Hayward to WGS/NGS test to delineate descendant clades.
