My father's Haplogroup is H, mother's V. After we came out of Africa; Dad's gang headed up into central and northern Europe and messed around with Neanderthals (3% Neander DNA). Mom's hung around the northeast corner of the Mediterranean and at the end of the Ice Age moved out toward what is now Germany. After a few centuries, some of both went to the British Isles and Ireland.

Much later some got the itch to try the Western Hemisphere and here I am - white Yank.
