R1b DNA Similar to Niall of the Nine Hostages?



Nadene Goldfoot
Niall Noigíallach, was a High King of Ireland, and the father of millions of descendants. He lived in the 5th century, and his estimated death date is 450/455 AD (Source). The Southern and Northern Uí Néill (meaning "descendants of Niall"; Uí pronounced 'Ee') dynasties produced the Irish High Kings for centuries and includes St. Columba, Niall's great-great grandson.  His Ydna was also R1b.  Our differences in red.



13   25   14   11   11   13   12   12   12   13   14   29  : 17   9   10   11   11   25   15 18 30 15 16 16 17
      23                         14                               13

So we seem to have a distance of 4 in the first 12 alleles, but it is interesting.  We have only tested the first 12 alleles.
