Adamthwaite DNA Project- Background

Background

Are you an Adamthwaite? Here is your opportunity to discover more about your early ancestry ... The Adamthwaite DNA Project welcomes all participants - descendants of the original Adamthwaite families from England and also descendants of Adamthwaites who migrated to the New World. The surnames in this DNA Project are researched as part of the Adamthwaite one-name study. You can learn more about this significant research, and the the associated family trees, by visiting our one-name study web site, the Adamthwaite Archive or contacting the Group Administrator The Y DNA test tells you about your direct male line, which would be your father, his father, and back in time. You must be male to take this test, and you should have the surname ADAMTHWAITE. If you believe there is a Adamthwaite or variant in your direct male line, although you have a different surname, you are also welcome to participate. If you are female, you will need to find a direct line male in your family tree to participate and represent your tree. We encourage males who order a Y DNA test to order 37 markers, if possible. If you order less markers, you can upgrade later, though this costs a little more. NEW!! We are also now welcoming anyone with ADAMTHWAITEs in their ancestral line who takes a FAMILY FINDER test.
