About us

The largest group of men who are genetic matches with the Looney DNA Project are shown by their genealogies to be descendants of Robert Looney (c1692-1770), who settled in the Philadelphia area of Pennsylvania in the early 1720s.  These men variously descend from five of the seven known sons of Robert (1) Looney who themselves had male descendants.

By correlating test results and paternal pedigrees, project members can identify their genetic heritage and related families.  The pedigrees posted to this website are not guaranteed for accuracy by the Looney DNA Project, but are the submissions of the individual DNA participants.
