I was informed by fellow researcher Joanna of Mr. Barker&#8217;s results in early August 2022. Mr. Barker tested 111 STRs and was a perfect match to Joanna&#8217;s Frazer brother. That would put Mr. Barker squarely in the Frazer camp, but where?<\/p>\n<h2>Mr. Barker&#8217;s YDNA Results<\/h2>\n<p>Many Frazers have taken YDNA tests, so we have a fairly good baseline. The best test is the BigY Test. Here is the chart that I have for those Frazer who have taken the BigY Test:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jmhartley.com\/HBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/2023-03-30-08_26_00-Frazer-YDNA-SNP-Tree-Excel.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-21681\" src=\"http:\/\/www.jmhartley.com\/HBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/2023-03-30-08_26_00-Frazer-YDNA-SNP-Tree-Excel.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"554\" height=\"829\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.jmhartley.com\/HBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/2023-03-30-08_26_00-Frazer-YDNA-SNP-Tree-Excel.png 554w, http:\/\/www.jmhartley.com\/HBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/2023-03-30-08_26_00-Frazer-YDNA-SNP-Tree-Excel-200x300.png 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 554px) 100vw, 554px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>One more Frazier has tested, but his genealogy goes beyond what is currently known. In other words, the Frazer common ancestor could be as early as the 1400&#8217;s. I may have Dingman on the wrong side of the chart. New STR testing seems to suggest that Dingman could be on the &#8220;James Line&#8221; or right side of this chart. By STR testing, Mr. Barker has a GD of:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>0 to Jonathan<\/li>\n<li>1 to Rodney<\/li>\n<li>4 to Rick and Paul<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This tells me that Mr Barker descends from the James Line Branch or the right side of the tree above.<\/p>\n<h3>Frazer STRs<\/h3>\n<p>Even though Mr. Barker shows as a 0 or perfect match to Jonathan, this cannot be. The reason is that that Jonathan and Rodney are second cousins. If Mr. Barker were to be a perfect match to Jonathan, that would make him a first cousin to Jonathan. This cannot be based on autosomal DNA testing and known genealogy.<\/p>\n<p>Here is Barker&#8217;s STR results, now in the Fraser and Septs Project at FTDNA:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jmhartley.com\/HBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/2023-03-30-08_45_07-FamilyTreeDNA-FRASER-and-Septs.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-21684\" src=\"http:\/\/www.jmhartley.com\/HBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/2023-03-30-08_45_07-FamilyTreeDNA-FRASER-and-Septs.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"808\" height=\"188\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.jmhartley.com\/HBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/2023-03-30-08_45_07-FamilyTreeDNA-FRASER-and-Septs.png 808w, http:\/\/www.jmhartley.com\/HBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/2023-03-30-08_45_07-FamilyTreeDNA-FRASER-and-Septs-300x70.png 300w, http:\/\/www.jmhartley.com\/HBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/2023-03-30-08_45_07-FamilyTreeDNA-FRASER-and-Septs-768x179.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Barker is listed right below Rodney&#8217;s results.

On this chart, I have Barker above Rodney&#8217;s results. The places that they have different STR values than the Mode are at CDY, DYS710 and DYS552. It could be that Barker has parallel mutations with Rodney and Jonathan at these three locations. I would say for sure that DYS552 is a parallel mutation. That is because, Rodney appeared to have gotten it after the common ancestor that he he shares with Jonathan (Thomas Henry Frazer born 1840). As the connection between Rodney and Barker go back before that time, Mr. Barker&#8217;s mutation must have happened separately from the one that Rodney has.<\/p>\n<h2>Mr. Barker&#8217;s Autosomal Results<\/h2>\n<p>I have a list of Frazer desdendants who have uploaded their results to Gedmatch.

These trees are difficult to build. Here is what I had:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jmhartley.com\/HBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/2023-04-02-21_01_04-Window.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-21696\" src=\"http:\/\/www.jmhartley.com\/HBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/2023-04-02-21_01_04-Window.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"799\" height=\"548\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.jmhartley.com\/HBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/2023-04-02-21_01_04-Window.png 799w, http:\/\/www.jmhartley.com\/HBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/2023-04-02-21_01_04-Window-300x206.png 300w, http:\/\/www.jmhartley.com\/HBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/2023-04-02-21_01_04-Window-768x527.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Since that time, I have come to think that Dingman should be on the James Line side and not as shown above on the Archibald Line. We also have a tester named Gary whose genealogy is from the James Frazer side. Then there is Mr. Barker to add.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll take another shot using the new Modes as the Frazer Ancestor values.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jmhartley.com\/HBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/2023-04-02-21_33_25-Window.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-21698\" src=\"http:\/\/www.jmhartley.com\/HBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/2023-04-02-21_33_25-Window.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"978\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.jmhartley.com\/HBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/2023-04-02-21_33_25-Window.png 978w, http:\/\/www.jmhartley.com\/HBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/2023-04-02-21_33_25-Window-300x196.png 300w, http:\/\/www.jmhartley.com\/HBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/2023-04-02-21_33_25-Window-768x503.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>This tree appears to make more sense. Notice in the old tree, it required DIngman to have three mutations to be in the Archibald Line. Here, it takes him only two mutations to be in the James Frazer Line. There is a rule of parsimony in creating these trees. That rule states that the simpler solutions are usually the better ones. I had trouble fittling Barker in as he is believed to be a close match to Jonathan and Rodney, but the genealogy shows that their common ancestor must be before Thomas Henry Frazer. I mentioned above that DYS552 must be a parallel mutation, so the above tree reflects that.<\/p>\n<p>Dingman has taken the BigY test, but because his Haplogroup was the same as Archibald Frazer born in 1690, it was difficult to place him in either of the sons&#8217; lines. Now that we see that Dingman has a DYS570 value of 18 in common with Gary, that is a clue that he is likely in the James Frazer Line.<\/p>\n<h2>Summary and Conclusions<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Further DNA testing seems to be adding clarity to the Frazer genealogical tree<\/li>\n<li>Mr. Barker shows a perfect 111 STR match with Jonathan, which could indicate a closer relationship than Jonathan has with his second cousin Rodney. However, this cannot be due to known genealogy and autosomal DNA testing. That means that Mr. Barker must have at least one parallel mutation.<\/li>\n<li>Dingman shows an affinity with 111 STR tester Gary. Gary is known to be in the James Frazer Line. This strongly suggests that Dingman should be in the James Line and not in the Archibal Frazer Line as previously supposed.<\/li>\n<li>I drew up an improved STR tree for the North Roscommon Frazer descendants to reflect new testing<\/li>\n<li>I compared Mr. Barker&#8217;s autosomal DNA at Gedmatch with other known Frazer matches whose DNA has been uploaded to Gedmatch. Based on that information, it appears that Dingman could be under the Michael Frazer Line. However, Mr. Dingman has other DNA matches with Frazers from other Lines at AncestryDNA that have not yet been explained.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have not spent much time looking at Mr. Barker as his YDNA results have not been posted on a FTDNA YDNA Project until recently.
