The Geer Family encourages researchers to find their common heritage through sharing of information and DNA testing in the GEER DNA Project. All variant spellings of the Geer surname are welcome to participate. If your surname is missing, we'll be glad to add it. Please visit our website and add your family leneage to the Patriarch Page.
Requirements
A Surname Project traces members of a family that share a common surname. Since surnames are passed down from father to son like the Y-chromosome, this test is for males taking a Y-DNA test. Females do not carry their father's Y-DNA and acquire a new surname by way of marriage, so the tested individual must be a male that wants to check his direct paternal line (father's father's father's...) with a Y-DNA12, Y-DNA37, or Y-DNA67 marker test. Females who would like to check their direct paternal line can have a male relative with this surname order a Y-DNA test. Females can also order an mtDNA test for themselves such as the mtDNA or the mtDNAPlus test and participate in an mtDNA project.
