Haplogroup Q is believed to have originated in central Asia, then spread eastward across Asia into the Americas, which is the reason it's normally thought of an an Amerindian haplogroup.  However, it crops up in Scandinavian populations, probably through pre-Viking contact with western Siberian populations where it is known there was cultural diffusion, then was carried further historically with the Vikings.  I recommend the mention of Haplogroup Q on this page of the Shetland Islands Project, the discussion of Haplogroup Q [link died] at the Elliott DNA Project web site, and the Haplogroup Q entry at Wikipedia, for an introduction to the topic.

Our subject has a few 12/12 matches in the FTDNA database and at Ysearch, but no full or significant near matches at 25 or 37 markers, so his 37-marker haplotype remains unique.  It also places him in Northwest European Group 1 of the Haplogroup Q Project at FTDNA.
This individual has been deep SNP tested at FTDNA, with these results:
M346+ M3- M19- M199- M323-
The positive result for M346 proves he is Q1a3.  The negative result for M3 proves he is not Q1a3a.  The negative results for M19 and M199 redundantly prove he is not Q1a3a or any of its subclades.  The negative result for M323 proves he is not Q1a3b.
  *Compiled 13 Jun 2010 by DGM from the Haplogroup Q Project at FTDNA.
What constitutes a match?
Matches in other surnames are usually mere coincidence, so please ignore them — I'll let you know when you shouldn't!
For 12 markers:  9 or less is a non-relative; 10-12, please see this Chart compiled by FTDNA.
For 25 markers:  21 or less is a non-relative; 22-25, please see this Chart compiled by FTDNA.
For 37 markers:  31 or less is a non-relative; 32-37, please see this Chart compiled by FTDNA.
For 67 markers:  55 or less is a non-relative; 56-67, please see this Chart compiled by FTDNA.
For any test:  0 matching markers, please contact NASA.
