Stamper DNA Project - Y-DNA Member Distribution Map Our direct
paternal ancestors have passed on their Y-Chromosome DNA (Y-DNA)
generation after generation. All lines began with our common
paternal ancestry in Africa. Over time, individual lines have
branched, and, thus, they mark the path from Africa to their
locations in historic times. Each line’s present geography shows
the path of this journey. Mapping the locations of our direct
paternal ancestors helps us see similarities and differences in
migration patterns. This page displays a map of the most
distantly known direct paternal ancestors for project members.
To display all members of the project, select All from the drop-
down menu. You may also select a specific subgroup from the
drop-down menu. In most cases, each participant is represented
by a pushpin. However, if two participants share exactly the
same map coordinates, they will also share a pushpin. Clicking
on a pushpin marker will display the Y-DNA branch (haplogroup)
