DNA results R1a-M512

Previous Y-DNA testing

The Latham surname DNA Project Subgrouping: "R-M198" has one individual, who states his Most Distant Known Paternal Ancestor (MDKPA) was Robert Latham of Bridgewater. He has not done any Y-SNP testing, but only a Y-37 STR test. FTDNA has predicted he falls under R-M512 and the Nevgen Haplogroup Prediction tool is only able to assign this individual to Haplogroup R1a.

Further needed testing

We need additional direct male-line descendants of Robert Latham to WGS/NGS test to both to refine the haplogroup further and delineate descendant clades.
