I have been trying to figure out where my cousins with G2a come from, so far the most likely clue is Tatars as the only one of my cousins with this maternal line whom has accepted my invite is a Tatar from Russia..
anyone have data on maternal G2a or just mtDNA G's in general?
here are my uncles cousins (i have also included some others whom might have similar origins, only using my uncle matches):

any help would be great as i am quite lost due to the lack of information on these mtDNA lines...
i did find a small community of Tatars living in Finland since the 1800's, but i am sceptical about that as it seems too soon?
I once tried thinking for an entire day, but I found it less valuable than one moment of study. I once tried standing up on my toes to see far out in the distance, but I found that I could see much farther by climbing to a high place.
no eastern Europeans, Iranians, Indians, Turks, Balkanise forum members who have cousins with mtDNA G2a?

Haplogroup R is the main subclade of N, the one that was to generate the 6 most common European haplogroups (H, V, J, T, U, K). At the time of writing R subclades were numbered from R0 (a.k.a. pre-HV) to R31. Most of them are found in South Asia (R5, R6, R7, R8, R30, R31), Southeast Asia (R9, R21, R22, R24), East Asia (R9/F, R11/B), and even among Papuans (R14) and Australian aborigenes (R12). R0a peaks in the southern Arabian peninsula is common among Arabs and Middle-Easterners. R1a (not to be confused with the homonymous Y-chromosome haplogroup) is found among the Adygei people from the North Caucasus (related to the Maykop culture => see R1b section), Brahmins from northern India, northwestern Russians and Poles - basically all people closely related with the Indo-European expansion. R2 is found from northwest India and Pakistan to Iran, Georgia and Turkey. It could be connected to the Indo-Iranians.
i guess mine are from the Caucasus then, makes sense..

Haplogroup U2 is found primarily in South Asia, but probably is of Indo-European origin as it is found at low frequencies throughout the Pontic-Caspian steppe and has been identified in a 30,000 year-old Cro-Magnon from the middle Don valley in Russia. It might have been the dominant haplogroup of the northern forest-steppe foragers who later became the Proto-Indo-Iranian speakers (see R1a above) and moved massively to Central and South Asia.

Haplogroup W (mtDNA)
Present at low frequencies in most of Europe, in Anatolia, around the Caspian Sea, and from the Indo-Pakistani border to Xinjiang, haplogroup W is one of the best maternal markers of Indo-European ancestry (mtDNA equivalent of R1a and R1b). Its highest frequency is in Ukraine, European Russia, Baltic countries and Finland (3 to 5% overall), as well as in northern Pakistan (15%), Punjab (9%) and Gujarat (12%). In Indian it is considerably more common among the upper castes and among Indo-European speakers (source).

one of my G2a's are over 34cm, too bad they have not filled out the ancestry finder questions

It is an East Asian haplogroup.[4] Today, haplogroup G is found at its highest frequency in northeastern Siberia (Itelmens,Koryaks etc.)[3] Haplogroup G is also found at lower frequency among some populations of East Asia, Central Asia, Bangladesh[citation needed] and Nepal. However, unlike other mitochondrial DNA haplogroups typical of populations of northeastern Asia, such as haplogroup A, haplogroup C, and haplogroup D, haplogroup G has not been found among indigenous peoples of the Americas.
i am starting to wonder whats going on here, i will investigate further..most of my sources seem to point towards an area between Kazan and the Caucasus mountains..
its very interesting though...
