Tunceli Merxo and Zarruk> Erzincan Ergan This Y-DNA (r-fta62902) came to Anatolia with Turkish migrations but later became Zaza. and then probably became Turkified recently. Its autosomal DNA is like Zaza. Its tribe and village are also Zaza. But the some family members  claims to be Turkish (grandfather and father and others).  (disputed. Some Gezik's claim to be Kurdish, but they belong to other branches of the family.  ) followed this path: Medieval Turkic>Anatolian Turkish>Zaza>Turkish Under this Y-DNA there are 2 Turks (but their autosomal is Zaza. From Deman and Ashuran tribes), 3 Kurds (Şadi, İzol and Canbeg) and a scientific sample (zaza-turkish mix). Y-DNAs that were different from the Zazas in the region were found from the Deman and Ashuran tribes. Also, 1 Zaza from the Deman tribe had an autosomal DNA result of Turkish-Zaza mixture. But there was no known mixture. In the similarity list, Turkic peoples were in the top 6. Also, in Mazgirt, a PH155’s similarity list had ‘Turkish Tunceli’ in the first place, with 3.7% East Eurasian. My Gedmatch:PB1787229 Maybe Deman and Ashuran tribes might have joined the Zazas later, but there is no written source.
