Haplogroup R1b is the main y-chromosomal haplogroup in Spain, Portugal, France, Ireland, the UK and the Low Countries. It is associated mainly with the earliest (Old Stone Age) inhabitants of Europe. The R1b* strain is extremely rare; so it is likely that User #JKSHS was not tested for subclade identification. Others who exactly match this user have tested as Hg R1b1b2a1a. This subclade is defined by the presence of the marker U106; it is found in its greatest concentration in the Netherlands, but is also very common in Austria, Germany and England.

The name Shattuck was distributed in 1891 primarily in Gloucestershire, Worcestershire and London. It is said to be derived from the name Chadwick, after placenames in Lancashire, Warwickshire and, most likely in the Shattuck case, Worcestershire. These were all areas that the Britons retreated to from the earliest Anglo-Saxon-Jutish invaders. The name itself is of Anglo-Saxon derivation (meaning "The dairy farm of Ceadel"; though the name "Caedel" itself is of British/ Welsh origin (meaning "battle").

The family's paternal DNA does not point to Anglo-Saxon-Jutish origin; but it does suggest the Frisians, who probably formed a large part of the Saxon contingent invading SE England in the late 5th Century CE, or the Belgae who ruled the same area just before the Roman conquest. Both peoples came from an area of fairly high R1b1b2a1a frequency, and later moved to W and SW England with the establishment of the Kingdom of Wessex.
