Thanks guys, this is good info. Patrick, any comments on 389, is this a
marker tested in your Irish Clans project? Last year, you mentioned a high
number of "G's" were found in Northern Ireland, are most of these turning
out to be I1c's?
I recall you don't find much "I1c" in other areas of Ireland? Really
interesting how all this I1c is concentrated in Northern Ireland, but is not
Norse or Anglo-Saxon....Do we see much I1c among the Scots-Irish?
