List of haplogroups of historical and famous figures
This is a list of haplogroups of historical and famous figures. Haplogroups can be determined from the remains of historical figures, or derived from genealogical DNA tests of people who trace their direct maternal or paternal ancestry to a noted historical figure. Some contemporary notable figures have made their test results public in the course of news programs about this topic.
[edit] mtDNA
MtDNA results come from historical persons whose mitochondrial DNA has been tested; it identifies direct maternal ancestry, which is just one line out of many.
[edit] Ancient samples
These are results from ancient samples of the person or reputed remains of the person. Because mtDNA breaks down more slowly than nuclear DNA, it is often possible to obtain mtDNA results where other testing fails.
[edit] Luke the Evangelist
The remains attributed to Luke the Evangelist, which have been held in Padua, Italy, have been tested for mtDNA (mitochondrial DNA):
| Name | Location | Approximate lifetime | mitochondrial DNA sequence | Haplogroup |
| body attributed to Luke the Evangelist | Italy | 1,850 years ago | 16235G, 16291T | H2 |
[edit] King Sweyn II of Denmark
Sweyn II Estridsson Ulfsson, known in Denmark as Svend Estridsen, is often considered to be Denmark's last Viking king as well as the first medieval one. He died in 1074 and is entombed in Roskilde Cathedral with other Danish kings and queens.[1]
| Name | mitochondrial DNA sequence | Haplogroup |
| DNA attributed to Sweyn II of Denmark | 16093C, 16304C | H5 |
[edit] Marie Antoinette
DNA taken from a lock of Marie Antoinette's hair, cut from her as a child, matched DNA believed to be from her son, King Louis XVII. A detailed discussion on the DNA analysis of Marie Antoinette, the putative heart of Louis XVII, and Carl Wilhelm Naundorff is available.[2]
| Name | mitochondrial DNA sequence | Haplogroup |
| DNA attributed to Marie Antoinette | 16519C, 152C, 194T, 263G, 315.1C | H |
[edit] Empress Alexandra Fyodorovna of Russia
The remains of Tsar Nicholas II of Russia and Empress Alexandra Fyodorovna were DNA tested along with the other bodies in their mass grave. The tests concluded that five of the skeletons were members of one family, and four were unrelated. Three of the five were determined to be the children of two parents. The mother was linked to the British royal family, as was Alexandra known to be by historical documentation. The father was determined to have been related to several other Romanovs. Scientists said they were more than 99% sure that the remains were those of the Tsar, his wife and children, and their attendants. Remains of Alexei, the 13-year-old heir to the throne, and one of his sisters, either Maria or Anastasia, have not been found. For decades there were rumors internationally that Anastasia had survived the murders, but no survivors have been proven.
| Name | mitochondrial DNA sequence | Haplogroup |
| Empress Alexandra of Russia | 16111T, 16357C, 263G, 315.1C | H |
| Philip, Duke of Edinburgh | 16111T, 16357C, 263G, 315.1C | H |
*Tsar Nicholas has a heteroplasmy, an instance of multiple mitochondrial types together in one cell, a normal & mutational cell, at 16169Y. The results were the same for his brother, Grand Duke Georgij Romanovr.
[edit] Prince Philip of the UK, Duke of Edinburgh
| Name | mitochondrial DNA sequence | Haplogroup |
| Prince Philip | 16111T, 16357C, 263G, 315.1C | H |
[edit] James McGovern
The remains of fighter pilot James "Earthquake McGoon" McGovern Jr. were discovered in Vietnam in 2002 and identified in 2006. McGovern belonged to mtDNA haplogroup H1.[3]
| Name | mitochondrial DNA sequence | Haplogroup |
| James "Earthquake McGoon" McGovern | 16519C | H1 |
[edit] Petrarch
The remains of Francesco Petrarca were tested for DNA in 2003.
| Name | mitochondrial DNA sequence | Haplogroup |
| body attributed to Petrarch | 16126C, 16193T, 16311C | J2 |
[edit] Ötzi the Iceman
Analysis of the mtDNA of Ötzi the Iceman, the frozen mummy from 3300 BC found on the Austrian-Italian border, has shown that Ötzi belongs to the K1 subclade. His mtDNA cannot be categorized into any of the three modern branches of that subclade (K1a, K1b or K1c). The new subclade has preliminarily been named K1ö for Ötzi.[4]
[edit] Jesse James
In 1995 the body of Jesse James was exhumed and his DNA compared to that of two known living relatives; he was matched with each.
| Name | mitochondrial DNA sequence | Haplogroup |
| body attributed to Jesse James | 16126C, 16274A, 16294T, 16296T, 16304C | T2 |
[edit] The Cheddar Man
The skeleton excavated from the Cheddar Gorge is in haplogroup U5a. The Cheddar Man is the nickname for the ancient human remains found in Cheddar Gorge; his approximate date of death was 7150 BCE.
| Name | mitochondrial DNA sequence | Haplogroup |

[edit] Famous figures from popular culture
The following are contemporary individuals who have had mtDNA results publicized:
[edit] Christian Cardell Corbet
The Canadian portrait artist Christian Cardell Corbet belongs to mtDNA haplogroup H.[6][7]
| Name | mitochondrial DNA sequence | Haplogroup |

[edit] Katie Couric
During an interview with Dr. Spencer Wells of The National Geographic Genographic Project, the host Katie Couric was revealed to belong to haplogroup K.[8]
[edit] Stephen Colbert
Stephen Colbert was told by Dr Spencer Wells that he is a member of haplogroup K.[9].
[edit] David Patterson
David Paterson, the former governor of New York, belongs to mtDNA haplogroup L.[10]
[edit] Vanna Bonta
American novelist Vanna Bonta belongs to mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) Haplogroup H1. The paternal genome of her father's line is Haplogroup R1b (Y-DNA)[11][12].
[edit] Desmond Tutu
Desmond Tutu, South African activist and Christian cleric, according to a study on Southern African genetics belongs to mtDNA haplogroup L0d, a subgroup of Haplogroup L0 (mtDNA).[13]
[edit] Nelson Mandela
Nelson Mandela, former President of South Africa, belongs to mtDNA haplogroup L0d (previously known as L1d), a subgroup of Haplogroup L0 (mtDNA).[14][15][16][17]
[edit] Deduction by descendant testing
Because mtDNA is carried through the direct female line, some researchers have identified the haplotype of historic persons by testing descendants in their direct female line. In the case of males, their mother's direct female lineage descendants are tested.
[edit] Benjamin Franklin
Doras Folger, one of Benjamin Franklin's mother's six sisters, passed on her mtDNA to her 9th-great granddaughter, Charlene Chambers King, therefore showing Franklin to belong to haplogroup V.[18] Bono from the Rock band U2 is among the many who are classified as having the same haplotype. [19]
| Name | mitochondrial DNA sequence | Haplogroup |
| Benjamin Franklin | T16298C, 315.1C, 309.1C, A263G, and T72C. | V |
| Bono | ? | V |
[edit] Princess Alice of the UK
mtDNA Haplogroup H (16111T, 16357C, 263G, 315.1C) Since both Empress Alexandra and her grand-nephew Prince Philip have the same mtDNA: HVR1+HVR2. Their common maternal ancestor Princess Alice would have been of the same haplotype.
[edit] Y-DNA
The results for Y-DNA genealogical DNA tests are either from the men themselves, or from men who have inferred paternal descent from historical figures. Scientists make the inference as a hypothesis which could be disproved or improved by future research.
[edit] Napoleon
Napoleon Bonaparte belonged to haplogroup E1b1b1c1* (E-M34*). This haplogroup has its highest concentration in Ethiopia and in the Near East (Jordan). According to the authors of the study, "Probably Napoléon also knew his remote oriental patrilineal origins, because Francesco Buonaparte (the Giovanni son), who was a mercenary under the orders of the Genoa Republic in Ajaccio in 1490, was nicknamed “The Maur of Sarzane” ".[20]
[edit] Emperor Nicholas II
Nicholas II of Russia has been predicted as having an R1b haplotype.[21][22]

[edit] Ötzi the Iceman
Ötzi the Iceman, is leaked to be Y-DNA haplogroup G2a2b[23]. The actual term used was G2a4, but the presumed L91 mutation has since been given a new category, G2a2b.
[edit] King Louis XVI
King Louis XVI of France from a genetic test on blood in a cloth purported to have been collected at his beheading and maintained in an ornate gourd decorated with French Revolution themes. Confirmation of this genetic profile requires testing of a known relative. The sample was tested at two laboratories with the same results..[24] The sample is most consistent with G2a3b1a samples and contains unusually high, rare values for markers DYS385B and DYS458 in this haplogroup G subgroup.

[edit] John Adams and John Quincy Adams
United States presidents John Adams and his son John Quincy Adams belonged to Y-DNA haplogroup R1b.[29]
[edit] Niall of the Nine Hostages
A recent study conducted at Trinity College, Dublin,[30] found that a striking percentage of men in Ireland (and quite a few in Scotland) share the same Y chromosome. Results suggested that the 5th-century warlord known as "Niall of the Nine Hostages" (or a male ancestor) may be the ancestor of one in 12 Irishmen. Niall established a dynasty of powerful chieftains who dominated the island for six centuries. Niall belongs to Haplogroup R1b1c7 (M222). It should be noted that Dr. Moore's results examined some different parts of DNA (loci) from the result given here.

All these United States presidents belonged to Y-DNA haplogroup R1b1c.[10]
[edit] Thomas Jefferson
Direct male-line descendants of a cousin of United States president Thomas Jefferson were DNA tested to investigate historical assertions that Jefferson fathered children with his slave Sally Hemings.[32] An extended 17-marker haplotype was published in 2007,[33] and the company Family Tree DNA has also published results for other markers in its standard first 12-marker panel.[34] Combining these sources gives the consolidated 21-marker haplotype below. The Jeffersons belong to Haplogroup T (former K2).

[edit] Genghis Khan
DNA purported to be from Genghis Khan does not have the benefit of near and easily documented lineages. A distinct 'modal' result centers today on Mongolia.
According to Zerjal et al. (2003),[36] Genghis Khan is believed to have belonged to Haplogroup C-RPS4Y711(xC3c-M48).

[edit] Adolf Hitler
Adolf Hitler, Chancellor of Germany from 1933 to 1945, is believed to belong to Y-DNA haplogroup E1b1b. According to Ronny Decorte, genetics expert at Katholieke Universiteit Leuven who sampled Hitler's current living relatives, "the results of this study are surprising" and "Hitler would not have been happy".[40][41]
[edit] William Harvey
Famous English physician William Harvey, who was the first in the Western world to describe systemic circulation, belonged to Y-DNA haplogroup E1b1b1, more specifically to the subclade E1b1b1c1 (M34). Most ancient ancestor known was Humphrey Harvey (1459–1526, Kent, England). Ysearch: B2YWY. Look also Harvey Y-DNA Genetic Project
[edit] The Wright Brothers

Albert Einstein belonged to haplogroup E1b1b1*-m35*, with a sample taken from a paternal descendants of Naphtali Hirsch Einstein[43][44]
[edit] Rurik of Novgorod
Rurik, whose descendants founded Kievan Rus', and ultimately the Tsardom of Russia (Ivan the Terrible), belonged to the Y-DNA Haplogroup N (N1c1). And they belong to a very specific Swedish branch of N1c1.[45] Most living Princes of the Rurik Dynasty or Rurikids also belong to this haplogroup, specifically those descending from Vladimir II Monomakh. The remainder belong to Haplogroup R1a (Y-DNA) below, and so have been suggested to be of Slavic origin.

[edit] Gediminas
As it was thought that the Lithuanian family of Gediminas or the Gediminids might ultimately belong to the Rurikid line, the same Rurikid Dynasty DNA Project sought to discover the haplogroup of their famous founder Gediminas. It was surprisingly found that while this is not precisely the case, the Gediminids also belong to the Y-DNA Haplogroup N1c1, yet of a different subclade. In fact the Gediminids and Rurikids are actually very distant cousins, sharing a common ancestor circa 2500 years ago.[46]

[edit] Somerled
In 2003 Oxford University researchers traced the Y-chromosome signature of Somerled of Argyll, one of Scotland's greatest warriors, who is credited with driving out the Vikings. He was also paternal grandfather of the founder of Clan Donald. Through clan genealogies, the genetic relation was mapped out.[47] Somerled belongs to haplogroup R1a1.
In 2005 a study by Professor of Human Genetics Bryan Sykes of Oxford University led to the conclusion that Somerled has possibly 500,000 living descendants - making him the second most common historical ancestor after Genghis Khan.[48] Sykes deduced that despite Somerled's reputation for having driven out the Vikings from Scotland, Somerled's own Y-DNA most closely matched that of the Vikings he fought.
The Y-DNA sequence is as follows (12 markers):[49]

[edit] Wyatt Emory Cooper and Anderson Cooper
Wyatt Emory Cooper and Anderson Cooper belong to Y-DNA haplogroup R1a.[10]
[edit] All Russian emperors from at least Peter III to Alexis
Nicholas II of Russia has been predicted as having an R1b haplotype.[21][22]
It matched a member of another line of Nicholas I's descendants. So, all the Emperors from Nicholas I to Alexis (Heir) shared this YDNA. It can also be said that this result is German, so Paul I was most likely the real son of his official father Peter III, and not the son of a lover, as was speculated.
[edit] Colla Uais
Colla Uais had previously been deduced as belonging to Y-DNA haplogroup R1b, based on results from DNA projects, and as having the following haplotype:[10] This identification proved to be ill-founded and has since been revoked.[50]
