1. The purpose of this project is to determine possible relationships between different ENYART-ENYEART, etc. family lines (worldwide).

2. It is desired via this project to connect DNA families descended from a common ancestor.

2. It is desired via this project to gather research information via a paper trail that will help in identifying individuals of various lineages.

4. With the use of Y-DNA tests we hope to discover which ENYARTs, ENYEARTs, etc. have a common ancestor with one of the ancestors possibly being a Carel (Charles) Enjart who resided in early Dutch New Amsterdam. This includes, but is not limited to the many varied surnames of Carel's descendants and other unrelated lines having the same surname.

The success of our Project will depend on the number of male participants who join our testing group, as well the documentation of the research connected with each line regarding dates and locations of birth, death, marriage, etc. Please, contact and encourage males of the above surnames to participate in our Project to help ensure its success.

The testing will be for the male Y-chromosome that is passed, only from father to son through the generations. Therefore, the testing requires a male with one of the above mentioned surnames or possible other variant. If you are a female with one of the surnames (etc.) or a female researcher, you may have a husband, uncle, brother, male cousin, etc. willing to volunteer in your place.

We have chosen Family Tree DNA of Houston, TX as our testing company. The testing laboratory will be analyzing either the 12, 25, 37 or 67 markers on the Y-chromosome. If the markers of two or more male individuals match, it will indicate they descend from a common male or variant surnamed ancestor. It will not identify the specific ancestor, but through the sharing of family information with other participants, that ancestor could be found. It is our opinion that the 25 or 37 or 67 marker test are much better at reporting the kind of data that we need to determine that we are related, as the 12 marker test can find many matches that are not close in generations to most research. You can upgrade from the 12 marker to the 25 marker, 37 marker, or 67 marker test at a later date, if desired.
