The name started out as Friedt, then the T was dropped and it became Fried, and then finally it was spelled Freed.
The Freed families research group has concluded that this Johannes belongs to Group C.
GROUP C. (Updated 1/17/09). The one individual in GROUP C is descended from another Johannes Friedt, born ca 1737, and died in 1791 in Bucks County, PA. He married (1) Henrica? and (2), Hannah?. The descent from the 1737 Johannes is through his son Henry (born ca 1767, married Magdalena Weisel), his grandson Henry W. (born 1801, died 1862, married Sophia Fluck.), and his great grandson Henry F. (born 1829, died 1898, married Sarah Ann Ziegenfuss). With his haplogroup being R1a1, there is no relationship within historic times between the individual in Group C to any individuals in either Groups A, B or D (all Haplogroup R1b1b2).

Haplogroup Determination for Group C: "R1a is a Y-chromosome haplogroup found at high frequency (more than 40%) from the Czech Republic across to the Altai Mountains in Siberia and south throughout Central Asia. R1a arose 15,000 years ago in the vicinity of Ukraine, expanding from either the Ukrainian LGM refuge following the end of the last ice age, or from the Pontic-Caspian steppe as a result of the Kurgan migrations. The expansion of R1a has been associated with the spread of the Indo-European languages." This quote is from the R1a section of Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (3/08).
