Brown/Browne/Braun DNA Study: Marker Values for Groups No. 40 thru No. 49  
   
Click here for other Groups    
   
The members of each relationship group below (Groups No. 40 through No. 49) are likely as a rule to share common Brown ancestors with fellow group members inside a "genealogical" time frame, that is, approximately since the widespread introduction of surnames in western Europe during the 15th century.  
   
   
These groupings are strictly tentative, however, and they will necessarily be revised from time to time. What's more, the identification of specific common ancestors for any group will generally depend more upon conventional "paper" genealogy than upon additional DNA testing.    
   
   
To the extent that there are mistakes in the groupings, we have tried to err on the side of inclusiveness by using selection criteria broader than those employed by many other surname-tracing projects. In technical terms, we view a false negative as worse than a false positive, so we prefer to err toward the latter. One implication is that some of this project's Groups will almost surely lose members -- or even "break down" -- if all their members should eventually upgrade from 12 to 25 or more markers. Such outcomes are most probable for Groups equal or close to the so-called "Atlantic Modal Haplotype" (AMH), as for example Group Nos. 5, 15, 18, 20, 56, 59, 87, 88 and 89. For more information on the AMH issue, see the discussion under Group No. 20.    
   
   
 
 
       
Criteria for Determining Relationship Groups:        
   
For Haplogroup R1b and its subclades: Members must match 12/12 on the first 12 markers, at least 23/25 on the first 25 markers, or at least 33/37 on the first 37 markers.  
     
For all other Haplogroups: Members must match at least 11/12 on the first 12 markers, at least 22/25 on the first 25 markers, or at least 33/37 on the first 37 markers.  
   
   
     
Note on Modal Values within Groups: In cases where a specific marker's modal value is undefined, a value is substituted from among the modal values for all project members with the same haplogroup.    
   
     
   
Color coding for Haplogroups:    
   
Green = haplogroup proven by independent SNP test                                  
Red = haplogroup inferred from STR's with high confidence (no SNP test)        
Blue = haplogroup inferred from STR's with medium to low confidence (no SNP test)    
Black = haplogroup presented with unknown confidence (SNP status not known)

Note: These numbers are fully consistent with the notion that an ancestor of no. 57431 had a surname change from "Brown" to "Burns" at sometime during the last several hundred years. But apart from the DNA data, no other evidence has yet been found either to confirm or to refute this theory.

Note 1:  We have put these men together in Group No. 43 as if they have a match of 23/25, because recent research suggests that the differences between them on markers 23 and 25 (464b and 464d) may be due to only one mutation rather than two.   
 
The phenomenon involved here is "recombinational loss of heterozygosticity" (recLOH).  For info,   click here.      
         
Note 2: The Anonymous Browns in this group are three men tested by FTDNA who haven't yet joined the Brown DNA Study. They are also listed under Group No. 57 below since they match there as well on 12 of 12 markers.
