That's a very interesting chart summarizing your results. I particularly like
the use of the Henry numbering system for descendants. I may be leaping to
conclusions, but it seems like you can almost look at the Henry numbers for
people who show a single variation and deduce where it happened, e.g. #22 and
descendants are different than #21 and #27 and their descendants, so the
mutation must have occurred in #22 or #221. And you'd need more data to
decide which one. We genealogists ALWAYS want more data! How do you interpret
those results?
