DNA results R1b-M269

Previous Y-DNA testing

Family Tree DNA currently does not have a Taber or Tabor surname DNA Project, but lists 63 Taber tests and 100 Tabor tests. Through a private conversation with a Taber researcher who has collected twelve Y-DNA descendants of Philip Taber who have taken the Y37 STR DNA test. They fall under the R1b-M269 Haplogroup. The NevGen Haplogroup Predictor tool is unable to further refine this prediction.

Further needed testing

We would need more Y-DNA descendants of Thomas Taber to take NGS/WGS tests to pin down the haplogroup, as well as possibly define subclades for various branches of the family.
