The percentage of DYS492=14 is over 50% in these areas. It has been found in one Italian whose roots, although in Sicily, are supposed to extend to Northern Italy in the Middle Ages. The rest of the Italian group is 12. All of the Swiss are 12 (4 have 67 markers) as are to date all of the French (N=1 with 67 markers). Of the many English and Scots tested only one has a value of 14 (and he with a very long Colonial USA pedigree).
