DNA results R1b-BY20420
Previous Y-DNA testing
At the present time (Jan 2022), the FTDNA Rider Rydar Ryder DNA Project does not list the most distant known patrilineal ancestor (MDKPA), but a conversation with the Project administrator has revealed where all members of the project descend from Samuel Ryder (I).
NGS/WGS testing
To date, four members of the Rider-Ryder DNA Project have taken a Big Y test. All four are descended from Samuel Rider and Anne Gimlett. Two of the individuals fall under R1b-U106>>Z381>>Z9>>Z326>Z8168>A5011>PH2647>FGC52801>BY20420 and the other two fall under a subclade of BY20420>FTB10997.
Further needed testing
We need additional direct male-line descendants of Samuel Rider (and preferably of his son Samuel [II]) to WGS/NGS test to discover the haplogroup/clade for the family.
