Currently a Campbell BigY branch within the Langston Project. Need some Langston's for BigY! Will likely branch with more test.
Does anyone have Campbell/Langston marriages or close neighbors?

Hugh Campbell patents IOW/Nas several until he buys even more! click to enlarge

Haplogroup J2: A recent study by Semino et al is one of the best sources of information about haplogroup J. Of special interest are the maps that show the geographical distribution of several J subgroups. In general, the J's are more common in Europe as one looks farther south and east, with the maximum concentrations near the Mediterranean coast. Some examples from Semino's study: Greece 22% (of the total population), Italy 20-30%, Spain 3-9%, the Ukraine 7.3%, Dutch 0%.

According to Al-Zahery et al both J1 and J2 expanded out from the Fertile Crescent about 7000-9000 years ago. The J2's seem to have started in the northern part of the Fertile Crescent and expanded west towards Europe (perhaps by way of the Balkans). As a result, almost all European J's belong to J2. The presence of the J2 subgroups in India, Pakistan, and Nepal means that they must also have expanded towards the east. However, at present, little is understood about the timing or dynamics of that eastward J2 dispersal.

Al-Zahery et al thought the J1's originated in the southern part of the Fertile Crescent and spread in a migration that happened after (and may have been triggered by) the earlier migrations from the north. However the J1 migrations were in more southern directions - towards the Middle East, the Arabian Peninsula, and east and north Africa.
