A large percentage have also done the BigY700 or SNP (mutation) testing to identify their exact branch under L26. Several of the tested participants descend from the 4th Earl. mtDNA Haplogroup H (16111T, 16357C, 263G, 315.1C): According to the Stewart Stuart DNA Project, the House of Stuart, who ruled Scotland from 1371, then also England and Ireland from 1603 until 1707, belongs to R1b-L21 > DF13 > Z39589 > DF41/S524 > Z43690 > S775 > L746 > S781.
