1. Where was his dna originally performed and how can I look at it to compare to it? 2. Who are the cousins that it says the haplogroup was chosen by? What are their names and relationship to this person?
These are things that should be made clear so as to show where you are getting this information. A gedcom or family tree is not the same as dna. And is not considered proof of anything. It is a tool but not proof.
Please and thank you
