Time-to-most-recent-common-ancestor (TMRCA) was estimated within Network from the rho-statistic, using a 35-year generation time,15 and a mean per-locus, per-generation mutation rate of 2 times 10-3.21, 22, 23

Results

As part of a survey of British Y-chromosome diversity, we recruited a set of 421 males, who described themselves as British, and whose paternal grandfathers were born in Britain. The Y chromosomes of these males were typed using a set of 11 binary markers,15 including M145 (defining superhaplogroup DE) and M89 (defining superhaplogroup F). All chromosomes carried the derived allele at one or other of these two markers, with a single exception, in male GB1757, which could in principle belong to hgA, B or C (see phylogeny in Figure 1). Further testing, including the markers M91 and M31, gave the surprising result that it belonged to hgA, within the sublineage A1.

Also, when the haplotypes of the other hgA1 chromosomes are used in similar searches, they find only self-matches in the populations from which they derive, underlining the scarcity and African-specificity of hgA1.

After the Revolution of 1905, the Czar had prudently prepared for further outbreaks by transferring some $400 million in cash to the New York banks, Chase, National City, Guaranty Trust, J.P.Morgan Co., and Hanover Trust. In 1914, these same banks bought the controlling number of shares in the newly organized Federal Reserve Bank of New York, paying for the stock with the Czar\'s sequestered funds. In November 1917,  Red Guards drove a truck to the Imperial Bank and removed the Romanoff gold and jewels. The gold was later shipped directly to Kuhn, Loeb Co. in New York.-- Curse of Canaan

I'd prefer part "Afro"... She's got to have it you know... you should get "tested" just for peace of mind...  :)
