Gediminas, descendant Y-DNA
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 2,500 years ago.
Rurik of Novgorod
His male-line descendants founded Kievan Rus', and ultimately the Tsardom of Russia, including Ivan the Terrible until 1598. They belong to the Uralo-Finnic Y-DNA Haplogroup N (N1c1). 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.

Removing the Eupedia Link
I don't think we should link to the Europedia Famous Haplogroup pages. They are basically a regurgitation of "scraped" information found on various websites without proper sources to back up the claims of the assigned DNA Haplogroups. I have spent a lot of my time researching a lot of the claims of Famous DNA and this website is part of the problem. TomHutchison (talk) 09:05, 23 November 2016 (EST)
- That's fine by me. We want to ensure that the ISOGG pages are an authoritative source and that all the claims can be independently verified.DebbieKennett (talk) 09:15, 23 November 2016 (EST)
- Ok, I will remove it. I wouldn't even add the Wikipedia article at this time either. It has been marked for a few years as not source properly. The scraping of content is really bad. One site publishes something and the exact same wording appears on 6 different sites. TomHutchison (talk) 11:34, 23 November 2016 (EST)
