"

based on your Y-Chromozone is completely false

You need to write in place:

" At least one of my ancestors, among the total of about 1000xxx
that I have ......other than some other Mc Callisters, are in
Central Asia, the Middle East and Eastern Europe and tend to be
Kahane or Muslims."

What kind of 'global' migration of your ancestors could be indicated
by this I ignore :) (-> maybe if 1 mil. people in the same region
has the same Y-Chromozone this for sure can indicate something...but
to applicate this to a single persons means nothing...)
