Is it a foregone conclusion that we should test positive for YP355 if we
are negative for CTS4179? So you're either/or, corralling us into this
Norse/English /Gael cluster. Or is it possible that we could still be some
"other" yet to be determined subclade?

Yes, I prefer the nomenclature R1a-L448 also Michael. And let me know
whenev=

them=
immediately. Hopefully a few other Cooley men will also. Likely we descenda=
nts of John Cooley of Stokes Co., NC, will all have the same results for
all=
Y-DNA SNPs, but of course multiple results are always better than a single
r=
esult.
