E1a1, A Very Small Haplogroup, Revised

The purpose of this paper is to focus on the possibilities for the presence of E1a1 in the British

Isles. However, this does not mean that our Jewish cousins, both Ashkenazi and Sephardic, are

to be ignored. To the contrary! Since Jewish E1a1 has been found in the Isles (I saw evidence

of it there through Ancestry.com), there is likely a convergence of history that is important to all,

not just those who migrated from the Isles to the U. S.

To say that E1a1 is a minor haplogroup is an understatement. We are so minor that we are

hardly noticed statistically. However, as I tell my wife, this means we are special. While

specialness is obviously a matter of personal observation, we are unquestionably minute

compared to the rest of the population
