Hi everyone. New to this DNA thing. According to FTDNA I am R1b1b2.
Might be needing some help figuring this whole thing out...lol

Hi,
I am a R1b1b2a1b5 aka L21. Earliest paternal ancestor: Alexander Matheson (abt. 1771-1845) who emigrated from Sutherlandshire, Scotland to Rupertsland (now Manitoba,Canada) in 1823.

My R1b line was in County Fermanagh, Ireland for most if not all of the 19th century. Counties Cavan, Leitrim, and Longford may also come into play, based on discussions with other researchers looking at the area regarding closely matching R1b Noble lines.

Ancestry likewise advised me that I am R1b but provided no details. Ancestry brags about having the latest technology, so why does Family Tree DNA offer some perspectives on my DNA that Ancestry doesn't? I see that FTDNA offers a special deal for Ancestry DNAers, but it isn't cheap enough after spending several hundred dollars on DNA research at Ancestry. It is rather frustrating. I'll just have to wait for Ancestry to bring itself up to standard. For now, I've posted my records at Y-Search to allow for some cross-pollination between DNA services.
