These projects involve the Y chromosome testing of males who share the same surname. By comparing your test results to others with your surname, you can determine if you are related. The results do not tell you exactly how you are related but will indicate if you share a common ancestor with another participant. This test is not associated with health matters or paternity. In addition to testing, we need information (e.g., pedigree chart) on line of descent from the oldest known male ancestor for each participant. This helps to identify the various unconnected links.

If you are interested in participating, please read the Frequently Asked Questions first and then submit a join request to the project with your surname variation.
