Background
This project was launched in January 2005, and now includes a number of participants from across the United States, several from different regions of the United Kingdom, one from Canada, and another from the European mainland. All participants have ancestral roots in England.
Since Benbow is an occupational surname, it was expected that we would identify at least several different genetic groups, and we currently have three different haplogroups in the study. And some of the men within certain haplogroups are not related to each other.
We are continuing to recruit more members from various family lines of the Benbow surname, particularly those with roots in Wales and Shropshire.
