Background

This Y chromosome study was initiated in February, 2004. It is dedicated to Joyce Brownlow of Liverpool who passed away November 1999. She did an amazing amount of Brownlow family research. She hypothesized that all Brownlow's came from the Rivington, Lancashire area of England. She noted how over the centuries in which records about Brownlow's were found, various branches moved out from Rivington to other parts of the kingdom, and then, on to the colonies.
