DNA

Y-Chromosome Haplogroup I-L338 All male line descendants of this person will be the same haplogroup.[citation needed]

For an explanation of Y chromosome testing for genealogy purposes see Wikipedia at Wikipedia:Genealogical_DNA_test#Y_chromosome_.28Y-DNA.29_testing

Note STR patterns can be used to predict a haplogroup wheresas specific SNP testing accurately defines a haplogroup. The current approved haplotree can be found here and the current haplogroup designations against specific SNPs can be found here

Research Notes

  • "On 10 June 1503 James, 2nd Lord Hamilton, granted precept of sasine to his bailies William Hamilton of Cander and John Hamilton his son and heir-apparent for infefting James Hamilton in Raploch and Isabel Weir his spouse in the granter's lands of Raploch. They were infeft in the lands 26 June following." and observes that this is the reference that places the descent of this branch of the family on firm ground.[1]
  • James Hamilton of Raploch, who had a charter from George, Lord St John, Preceptor of Torfichen, of the Temple lands, called the Wairds, near Hamilton, dated 10th February 1517.[2]

Y-DNA I-L338 for all of his male line? Possibly. (my early Great-grandfather, on my grandMother's side) Y-DNA is possibly I-Y6635 per Descendent of Walter Hamilton of Darngaber, (potentially one of my FTDNA matches).

BOTH I-L338 (also known as I1a2a1a1a) and related I-Y6635 (also known as I1a3a1a1a1, Parent Branch: I-Y6624) are of Haplogroup I-M253 also known as I1 (a Y chromosome haplogroup). I-L338 is a well-known Haplogroup of the Douglases.

Walter Hamilton of Darngaber BIRTH 1392 • Cadzow, Lanarkshire, Scotland, DEATH 20 MAY 1441 • Trabzon, Trabzon, Turkey and his descendants were descended from the Douglases and not the Hamiltons.
