Model refinements (error modification)-border migration influencing the Argyll community.

I-M253 Gaelic Speakers, and Vikings. Names Moore, Thompson, and Turner, with I-M253, and Johnston(e).

Johnston(e), is a locality surname from Johnston(e) which I have not been able to find of old County Annandale of Scotland, now it is felt to be of Dumfries, County. The name Johnson the son of John, with English migration proceeded the name Johnston to America. Like Johnston Co., NC. A lot of Johnston of Ulster dropped the “t” to the main adopted spelling of Johnson. If your family is spelled Johnstone, then you likely came to NC from Argyll.

There is a Thompson, UK of East Anglia,
Thompson; https://www.google.com/maps/place/Thompson,+Thetford+IP24+1PW,+UK/@52.4068429,0.7847112,9.85z/

Thompsson form in Sweden, and Tompsen; some in Germany more in Denmark and more in Norway.

The Thompson, now consider themselves as a sept of Clan Armstrong, which says they stem from Fairbairn, north of border on east side, carrying I-M253.

Armstrong Fairbairn I-M253 Y-DNA

likely the original Fairbairn carried I-M253.

Armstrong are self lead, and there do not have a chief, but Clan Elliot(t) does have a Chief Margaret Eliott of Redhuegh-Stobs.

Clan Elliot had septs in past and one of those was Nixon, which the Glendennings, Hunters, and Thompson rode with.

I-M253 is more Viking than my I-U106, and Viking migration

Unraveling Our Genetic History | Garrett Hellenthal | TEDxGoodenoughCollege explains some of this.

There was basically a split where the Scots from the borders migrated to, and it is felt they were more comfortable being. My line, migrated like many Johnston, and Thompson, from one border to another, in Fermanagh, and Armagh, on Hamilton leases, of the earliest migrations of borderers to Ulster, and arrived in the American Colony as a Cromwellian indenture to English Puritans.
Others migrated to Scotland likely later to Antrim-Down-Derry-Donegal

All on has to do is put names; Johnston, Thompson, Ellot (without “i” Scottish spelling), Graham, Armstrong into search c1630 muster to see this;
Not so much for Armstrong and Elliott mainly including Neil Armstrong from Fermanagh, from one border to another, but shows up more with Johnston, Thompson, Moore, and Turner, guess they are the Vikings.

The language of the Border Scots, is now Ulster Scots, of these Northern Counties of Ireland in which the Border Scots settled.

To get the DNA to correlate well, one has to go back first to the Gaelic Speaking Scotti, of Agyll-Antrim, in order to get it to correlate and make it useful with the genealogy, the “Mc/Mac”, “Neil”, “the O’ people”, “Campbell” and variants thereof.
Border people may have been suppress, but do not feel bad all you have to do is look to the Gaelic, to understand what suppression may be in Ulster Ireland.
