First see my text about the Y-DNA test of a member of the Tolkien family. And then...
When ten years ago I began to investigate the genealogy of the Tolkien family and my own genealogy no one was concious that both families, the Tolkiens and the Derdziński had West Baltic roots. Thanks to the genetic tests and thanks to my research I now suppose that I could have a common ancestor with Professor Tolkien living on the shores of the Baltic Sea between 1 AD and 500 AD, in the times of the ancient Æsti (descibed by Tacitus and by Wulfstan) and maybe in the times of the first Vikings who explored the Baltic shores from today's Estonia to Poland. In Poland the families belonging to the Z92-YP350+ clan have their beginnings in the class of the West Baltic aristocracy, the so called Witings.

The Tolkien family name comes from the Tolkeim place-name |
