Re: Romero DNA

[Linda R Romero <romero89@...>]

Thank you Emily, Joseph, Arturo, Leticia, Angie, Mary, Irma, for all  
the help you sent.  Some of the information I knew but some was new  
to me and much appreciated.  I need all the help I can get.
I have just spent 3 hours copying the emails from the group to my  
word file -- while trying not to include all the repeated information  
at the bottom of the emails.  I can then read them while on the road  
to AZ.  All the information in these emails is great and I don't want  
to lose it.
Ed, Joseph:  I'm afraid I haven't figured out my haplogroup.  I do  
not have my fathers Y-DNA, that's why I need my brother's  
cooperation. He and I have the same parents. I only have my mtDNA and  
my mother is not Spanish.  I also have 3 half brothers, but since  
their mother's are not the same as mine, I haven't bothered to ask  
them.  My father's sister is dead so I have no mtDNA on my father's  
side.  A total shame.  All my cousins are from his brother, Rosendo.   
His sister adopted her only child.  We called her "Blondie" because  
of her obvious Anglo heritage.  I am shmit out of luck (as far as I  
can figure) for mtDNA for my Spanish side.
How does one figure out their haplogroup?  I am confused (as usual).   
I didn't get "assigned" a haplogroup when I got my results.  I only  
got my HVR-1 AND HVR-2 readouts with the mutations highlighted.
