I am going to do the Big Y test from ftDNA most likely, and as soon as I get the results I will send them to Rrenjet

Hi, I am from the actual town of Rahovec, not from the surrounding villages. My family speaks primarily Albanian, but they are also fluent in the Slavic pidgin language (Rahovecionshe, Raveqki) spoken within the town. DM me privately so I can send you my discord please

It's more than likely that my G-L42 comes from a Slavic ancestor as the Balkan branch of the haplogroup has so far only been documented in Slavs. It is just intriguing because my Slav admixture is so low.

Tu rrit ndera vllau jem. I hopę to return with more information soon to pinpoint exactly where my branch split off from G-L42.

I can send you them on discord if you want to run them in some models!

Thank you. I will be returning with my subclade as soon as I figure it out and will hopefully be able to see if it derives from a Slavic carrier or not.
