FTDNA Y-700 results show Lazarus Stewart descended from Sir John Stewart (1350 – 1441), Sheriff of Bute, Arran, and Cumbrae, the son of Robert II, King of Scots. As documented in the FTDNA “Stewart-Bute” and “Stewart-Royal” projects, this line is distinguishable through the following SNPs below the R-L746 branch: FTT46, Y14197, and Y14198.
Specifically, to Lazarus, FTDNA kits 14486, 993678, 977797, B886018, and 971822 show that descendants of Lazarus carry the [R-FT74278] SNP. This determination was acquired through testing descendants of David Stewart 1722-1798 and James Stewart 1723-1817.
As of the date of this posting, this SNP (R-FT74278) has been propagated by two Geni profiles; however, there are other SNP’s that have been propagated which are not related to this line. How do we go about cleaning up these SNP’s that have been propagated?
In addition, with the above-stated findings, the lineage currently shown for Lazarus is incorrect. There’s more to discuss but I wanted to start the engagement with the Y-DNA findings.
