Subject: RE: [DNA] Jefferson haplotype
Date: Thu, 05 Feb 2004 21:31:44 -0800


It looks like it's possible that Thomas Jefferson may have belonged to Y
haplogroup O. The list below compares the haplotype of Jefferson to six
examples of haplogroup O given in Butler's 20 STR multiplex paper.
Jefferson's haplotype comes fairly close to a couple of them.


DYS: 019 388 389i 389ii 390 391 392 393

A recent study by Paracchini et al of more than 1000 Californians and
Hawaiians saw haplogroup O among only about 1% of the men (except for those
of Japanese descent). The results of that study are summarized here:

Butler's paper is available in the FTDNA library:

http://www.ftdna.com/pdf/Butler_et_al_2002.pdf

I have also added a page to my website that lists all the haplotypes in
Butler's paper:
