Huddle 'Up Norman French

       Hopefully, this post will become a pattern for those folks joined on the same team (cultural groups) that competed upon the football fields of life against my Celtic, to become Welsh, and ultimately to become my Jones surname ancestors. So here we go.


       Norman-French has been the name applied to their franchise but, it was neither Norman or French. It was Scandinavian! Can you believe it? My "Y-Chromosome Phylogenetic Tree" calls these players "haplogroup I". Their earliest training days, involving a peninsula of 1/3 water and, 1/3 mountains, would certainly be called "winter ball", since winter months were 1/2 the player's year! You would probably want to huddle around a warm fire most of the time awaiting the next quarterback's call!

        From here on, the comment section will focus a topic of discussion about this team. On and on it might go as the topics expand along this hallway of time and, the relationship to my Jones surname ancestors. Buckel 'up, and by the way huddle 'up.
