About us

Established in September, 2009, this Geographic Project is focused primarily on the Davis surname but is open to all families with roots in Ulster County, New York, and surrounding area. The purpose of this project is to provide a place where Y Chromosome DNA test results from this geographical area can be shown side by side so that family connections, and non-connections, can be easily seen.


GOAL:
Our goal is to use Y-DNA testing to firmly establish the relationships of the various early Ulster County area families, including the well known and documented family of Christopher "Kit" Davis, one of the earliest European settlers of what is now Ulster County, New York. We encourage any males with early roots in Ulster County to join us. Females whose direct paternal line originates from this area can have a paternal side male relative test for this project. Y-DNA testing of paternal lines will help resolve dead ends and brick walls, as well as validate existing lines.


PRICING:

GENERAL FUND:
We've established a General Fund for our Ulster County Y-DNA Project so that those of us who benefit from DNA testing done by others can contribute to the project in a meaningful way.  Contributions to this fund will be used to help buy kits for those who want to join us but who can't afford it, or for those whose DNA might be of value to the project but aren't interested enough in genealogy to want to pay to be tested.  Contributions to this fund can be made by clicking the link below.  Thanks to all those who help.
