Descendants of William Pugh (1773-1850)

 

 

The Pugh Surname DNA Project is providing us with incredible insight into connections previously unknown and long established connections that we now know are in error.  With only 60 participants, are already very close to completing the foundation for assembly of the Pugh DNA forest that grew out of Colonial America.  We are also learning important things about Pugh lines that came to America in more recent times.  We have a small group of participants who represent lines outside of America and hope to increase International participation in the Project to further connect the Pugh lines that have spread around the globe.

 

The information presented on these pages is, in some areas, speculative and is by no means complete.  We have relied heavily on Internet sources in compiling the data and have received much information from many genealogists and family historians.  We are most grateful to all of those who have done the research and shared it with the world so that we may continue to sort out this tangled collection of individuals.  To advance Pugh genealogy we hope to provide a setting where we can gain input from those who are knowledgeable, willing and able to offer advice and to help correct the information presented here.  Please view this information as fluid and subject to change.

 

The information contained in these pages is being published in good faith, and has been checked, whenever possible, for accuracy against sources available to us.  Please inform us of any discrepancies, so that we may correct the information and improve its accuracy.  We welcome your participation in the Pugh Surname DNA Project and/or your insight as to what the DNA results may be trying to tell us.
