The Kip/Kipp Family Y-DNA Project - Update

The Kip/Kipp Family Y-DNA Project

The newest result is most interesting as we now have three distinct Kipp founders - two
are R1b1b2 and one is I2a. However the two R1b1b2 Kipp families match each other only 10
out of 12 and 29 out of 37 markers, which means that they are not related. Reviewing the
information on the IGI (International Genealogical Index) reveals that there are Kipp families found in Germany (in Prussia and in Wurtemburg), in The Netherlands, in France, in Switzerland, and in England (these groups appear to be the largest with Germany having the greatest number of entries). The first Kipp (de Kype, Kip) emigrant to the present
day USA came in 1635 to New Amsterdam (now New York City). Three Kipp families emigrated
to the state of Pennsylvania, USA in the 1750s as mentioned on the Kipp FT DNA website

Encouraging more Kipp family members to test will help to clarify these founder families.
I am awaiting results of my upgrade to 67 markers and will have more to say when that is
received. Analyzing the results that have been obtained for the de Kype family that
emigrated to New Amsterdam (now New York City) in 1635, this family line has three significant values that may lead to more information on our deep ancestry

DYS426 = 13
DYS449 = 27
GATA H4 = 12

Comparing these results with 300 other R1b1b2g-U106+ results, this particular surname is
the only one that has these allele values at these particular DNA Y Segments (DYS). As
more results are obtained for this family line (a fourth result is available from a known descendant of the de Kype family of New Amsterdam but he has not yet joined the group - he has the same exact 12 initial markers) we may be able to differentiate between the three sons of the original emigrant since two members of the group have differences at CDYa/b (known to be a rapidly changing marker). The DYS426 and GATA H4 are known to be
very slow moving markers which lets us use them as "marker" alleles for the de Kype
family. DYS449 is rated as a fast moving marker.
