Someone pointed me to this
Ysearch profile, who could be a descendant of
Martin Luther. The haplogroup isn't mentioned but it looks like I2a.
I checked the
Luther Surname DNA Project and this haplotype is listed as an unknown Luther line from Germany.
About half of all the Luthers in the project belong to I2a.
According to his
genealogy, Martin Luther descends from Wiegand von Luder (c.1396 - c.1456) from Thuringia.
yes he was
he is a descendnet in the direct paternal line of this man
