GATEWAY
TO
THE
DNA Project

As AMASON, AMERSON and EMERSON descendants and researchers,
we now have the opportunity to take our genealogy research to a new level!
A project has been established with World Families Network to host our EMERSON * AMERSON * AMASON DNA project.
Webpages for reporting statistical results only (names of participants are not provided) will be located within World Families Network.
The project has also been registered with the Family Tree DNA project, which provides the kits and testing for project participants.
By registering as a family project, the cost of the kit is reduced for participants in the project.
Our goals for this project:
1. To establish if there is a common ancestor, and if AMASON, AMERSON, EMERSON or EMMERSON are branches of the same family tree.
2. To establish if AMASON, AMERSON, EMERSON or EMMERSON families, often living in the same locations, in the Southern U.S., are branches of the same family.
3. To determine early geographical origin of the AMASON AMERSON EMERSON and EMMERSON family.
4. To determine if there is Native American ancestry in one or more branches of the AMASON AMERSON EMERSON or EMMERSON family.
NOTE: To reach a comparable result, the participant in a Y-chromosome study, should be male with the surname of
AMASON, AMERSON, AMISON, EMERSON or EMMERSON.
Please read the information at the following link to determine
if you are a good candidate for this project

or contact one of the project administrators.
To reach the goals for the DNA Project,
the more extensive Y-DNA67 marker test is recommended
for anyone who participates in the project.
Cost of the Y-DNA 67 marker kit is $269 + $2 shipping = $271,
the discounted cost
if ordered through the World Families Network
