ZD1 Somerset Line

This line consists of only two members who are known cousins descended form an ancestor in Somerset, England.  One with a Y37 test and the other with BigY. As there is only one tester the terminal SNP I-BY3748 is very old and estimated to have arisen in 1100CE. The test results show that this tester has 15 private variants that could easily split up to a more recent result with a second BigY result in this line. Six of the neighbouring blocks belong to the Lewis family and the last to a Duncan family.
