| Notes |
This example was taken from the Feist Family Tree DNA project. The Feist Families Family Tree DNA project shows nearly the same results. Several of the Feist's that have been tested for this project trace back to Baden, just as my family does. I chose to use Feist examples in this project for a few reasons. 1. Because it appears that my paternal line married into a Royal David Line, which included Levites and Cohanim. 2. Although unproven, there's a possibility that I do have Kohen on my paternal side of the family as well. 3. This family seems to be R1a1, which co-insides with the Horrowitz Family who are also R1a1, but seemingly from a sister branch, when they branched off of R1a1.
So the association of the Jewish Priestly Caste and Levites is potentially there. This is just to add a bit more emphasis on research and looking at the possibilities.
Feist's seem to have taken the path of (R1a1) R-M198- R-M417- R-Z283... |
