Y-DNA Haplogroups of U.S. Presidents

Intriguing every which way.
Some questions:
any explanations for LBJ and Nixon’s apparent African y-DNA ancestry
Why is Obama’s and Biden’s y-DNA not available?
I assume Madison’s is not available inasmuch as he had no offspring.
All for now,
Rollo
LBJ and Nixon's Haplogroups are not African. Well, ultimately sure, since Paleolithic or maybe Mesolithic times at the latest, but E-V13 has been in Europe since Neolithic times. Haplogroups often have more complicated histories. "E" is a massively distributed and extremely old lineage spanning multiple continents. This is true for many haplogroups dating back 10000+ years.
 
Lyndon Baines Johnson haplogroup, most specific:

There are many Johnsons tested by now, with the current TMRCA being 1618 AD. I'm not aware of an actual English tester, most seem to be American.

His branch split from an(other) English lineage 473 BC and from a big Jewish proselyte lineage around 363 BC.
 
Wow!
I guess Thomas Jefferson also has more recent Jewish ancestry than we thought, and he is being ‘claimed’ now by said ethnic group, along with Alexander Hamilton.



No,
His branch looks british
T-FT78438


P.s
None of the usa leaders was jewish
Or partly jewish
In the mean time the usa had a leader
Who is half black obama (likely e1b1a-m2)
Jews are not that strong as the propaganda like to claim

Those more rare haplogroups exist in England already and any actual Jewish lineage looks different, like the proselyte one which is not directly related to Lyndon B. Johnson but which has a common ancestor in the Iron Age. They experience, typically, founder events between about 600-1000 AD, with at least a couple of Jewish testers. Those subclades which don't have that, are not Jewish in the vast majority of instances.

Jeffersons haplogroup doesn't have that, even on the contrary, its all Western European since 900 BC. To me it looks Franko-Iberian since the very late Bronze to Iron Age at first glance. Jeffersons direct branch has two British with a TMRCA of about 600-500 BC.
 
Obama paternal line

Only 9 male samples here:
But they are
: 66% e1b1a-m2
22% B
11% A

Some argue that Alexander Hamilton had Black ancestry due to his mother, of Huguenot French descent, being born in the Caribbean. Additionally, rumors about Hamilton's possible Jewish heritage stem from his mother marrying a Jewish man, despite him not being Hamilton's biological father. However, it's safe to assume that Alexander Hamilton was neither partially Black nor Jewish.
 
Thanks Riverman, for the info.
I like your ‘founder’ event reference. My matrilineal ancestry traces back through a founder colony, Quebec, Canada. 7 million living French Canadians and 13 MILLION Americans (partially or totally) trace their ancestry to the 2000 original new world French settlers, Les Habitants.
I'm aware of the Quebecois and see that in my ancestry as well, since my family shares some segments with them. Lots of Franko-Canadians on one spot of the genome, so nearly the same pattern as with Ashkenazi Jews. AJ are not the only endogamous founder population in the world.
 
Trump won
Nrken19 from twitter say
He is r1b-u106 looks logic
His Direct paternal line goes to southwest germany
How he will get along with our r1a-z93 netanyahu will see 🤔

@Maciamo where are your sources for Calvin Coolidge's haplogroup of I1? I found one Coolidge project on FTDNA but there are presently no Coolidges in it.
