This new video is related to the research of my family history, but more importantly, genetic family history and the Y DNA that exists through my paternal lineage. So please forgive me, if this video is a little too in-depth, as genetic DNA is a difficult subject to follow, but an incredible tool to use for genealogy. I have been researching my family history for 25 years and during that time I have built a tree which consists of no less than 52,000 family members and the branches of my tree date back to the Middle Ages. The tree also includes branches that relate to legendary, mythological and biblical lineages, which is an area I am fascinated in due to my love of how people grew to understand the world around them and their understanding of where we came from. Which has intrigued human kind for thousands of years. This video is part of a new series called ‘ORIGINS’, created as a means to further my research with my ancestry, these videos in particular will become a part of my websites and blogs of which I have maintained and managed for several years. I have several videos planned, which I will explain further at the end of the video. Currently I am undergoing a project to identify as many surnames that share my paternal haplogroup which is R-YP417 This Haplogroup is relatively young in terms of DNA and broke away from its parents line around the time of Jesus, so we are looking 0CE. My haplogroup group parent line is L1029 and dates back at 1200 BCE, so is Bronze Age in origin, this haplogroup is the forefather of three separate subclasses (including my own) One being the Lechites, which was a Bronze Age Slavic tribe that lived in Poland and Ukraine, and consists of the haplogroups R-YP444 and R-YP263 And my own Haplogroup - R-YP417 which again is a Slavic DNA group and is shared by many men who are either Russian or Ukrainian - My DNA is dominated by Eastern Slavs and as mentioned before is aged about 2000 years.
