About us
Both major Bates family organizations, namely:
1. The Bates Association (Founded in 1907): http://www.BatesAssociation.org
2. The Bates Family of Old Virginia (Founded in 1972 but no longer in operation)
originally sponsored the Bates Family DNA Project.
The project is generally limited to men who have Y-chromosome DNA test from a line of male Bates.
