I was told the Hap 1 was not Viking - at least Norse - Danish perhaps??? Has that changed? I was also told that additional tests could be done by FTDNA less expensively to answer such questions because they already had the sample on file.

FamilyTreeDNA's Haplogroup page notes that "Haplogroup
I lineages ... would most likely have been common
within Viking populations." Oxford Ancestors offers a
Viking Ancestry Test

Do the results of my 25 marker Y-DNA test from
FamilyTreeDNA provide enough information to make as
good a determination of Viking ancestry as the Oxford
Ancestors' Viking Ancestry Test or would the Viking
Ancestry Test look at parts of my Y-DNA that have not
yet been examined?
