This is the best info I've found so far on H1u1, a very rare mtDNA group in the world. I recommend it!

Hi Nancy Private User. Thanks for this. My earliest female ancester was Sharkey from Co Tyrone/Donegal in Ireland. I read the article but could only see to H1u. Was there something specifically for H1u1?
I am fascinated by your comment. I did not know H1u1 was very rare. I thought I was just a garden variety human LOL.
Cheers from Chrissy in Lockdowned (again) Melbourne Australia.
Hi, Chrissy --
I was going to edit my remark about H1u1 because, like you, I saw that the article only mentioned H1u, but haven't figured out how to do it yet. Lol. There is an H1u2, also. I'm including a chart with information about our "parent" H1u1 subclade and its "child" H1u2. I found it helpful because it mentions specific countries with our specific subclade. Tell me what you think.
My maternal grandmother's mother's maiden name was MAY and was from Tennessee, USA, migrating to Arkansas, USA.. Her grandmother was possibly a RISNER/RISENER (originally from Palantine, Germany) living in South Carolina & Arkansas, USA. Her mother apparently was a NULL, which is an Irish surname from County Donegal, Ireland. What do you know! Like your Sharkey, it seems. My maternal line is not well-researched. The men are known, but the women is another matter.
Most of my H1u1 matches on FTDNA are English, Irish, & French, some German with a lone Lithuanian. I see your name on my list of H1u1 matches, just 2 generations away.:)
