Family Tree DNA has confirmed that the haplogroups (a geographic group that shares the majority of Y-marker numbers) for the Speed family are I1a, I1c, & & R1b located primarily in central & northwestern Europe.
Some notes on haplogroup I & R are here.
Walt Athey's Haplogroup Predictor more specifically predicts the subclade or subdivisions for our haplogroups I & R.
