CF01 Y-DNA mutation rates

Hi Guys,

I created this some months ago and then forgot about it. It lists several
of our Y lineages to the tester, the number of generations each is removed
from John, and an "index."

Surprisingly, Aaron Cooley's descendant has the smallest mutation rate
(considering that he's eight generations in descent).

I don't know that it's statistically sound, but I simply subtracted the
number of mutations from the number of generations to get the index. It
seems to work. Of course, this is no indication of "Cooley purity," if you
will. :) Apart from it being interesting, I'm not sure that it serves any
purpose. But that could be said of my entire life. :)
