Paul,
Thanks, for this - you are right, my mistake about the ID.
As I said, I guess you and I represent something approaching the
earliest R1b1c7 split, with our GD of 15. I don't think we can ascribe
anything special to the 442 and 444 counts. Indeed, I'm still not sure
whether our M222+ progenitor was located in Ireland or Gaul, ie, did my
Scots ancestors arrive via Ireland, or directly across the channel.
Hopefully, time will tell.
Regards
David
