Wanted to share our families ydna results. It has been quite the journey to say the least far from over but scientifically we have come close.
Our families settled in the Ethiopian Bale area for generations but are originally from Northern Somalia. Not sure what took them there but from talks most assume wars spreading religion etc.
Out of the four men tested, two carry
E-M35 and E-BY202497 /E-Y163928

The other 2 carry J1or J-ZS8629
https://www.yfull.com/tree/J-ZS5383/
I will share the tmrca and more info as it becomes available.
P.S. No one is 100% any clan. Somalis mainly have similar roots although some assimilation did occur.
