About us

Your Group Administrator-George Valko has enjoyed more than 12 years gathering VELLER and FOELLER genealogy data and published 5 family history books including a VELLER family history of Volga Germans. See www.WolgaDeutsche.com Surnames Feller, Foeller, Foller, Vehler, Veller, Villers, Villier, Voeller, Voller and Weller are European and seem to be radiating out from Bern, Switzerland in a 500Km radius to the north, west and south in 17th and 18th centuries. The above names are found in northern Italy, France near the border with Germany and and central Germany. The most frequent occurrence, by anecdotal evidence, of these surnames seems to be the Swiss � Germany border areas.

Each participant gets their results from familytreeDNA.com with access codes to their data, a certificate, and positive and negative relationship results within the family surname group. 37 or 25 marker tests are the best entry to the group. A 12 marker test is cheaper and the minimum to determine any relationship results. The more markers tested reduces the time frame to any common ancestor. Test fees are determined by www.familytreeDNA.com Please visit the www.familytreeDNA.com site for helpful information regarding all DNA testing, pricing and privacy information.
