Project Background: The Adams Project started in 2002 and has a steady growth since.
The main Adams web site is here:
http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~jswdna/adamsresults.html
It has more men than this site.
See the detailed data by clicking on Y Results above.
The FTDNA one is here
http://www.familytreedna.com/public/adams/
This site has the 38-67 marker panel that is not reported on the main site. | Family Tree DNA - Genealogy by Genetics, Ltd.

2) Determine the haplotype of the Presidential Adams family.
3) Determine if the oral histories of families being related to the Presidential Adams family are true. | Family Tree DNA - Genealogy by Genetics, Ltd.

Project Background, Goals, Results and News are copyright of the specific Surname Project Project Results: The presidential Adams family haplotype has been deduced.
About half the men tested have found no matches/connections within the project.
Within this group there are over 15 families that have an oral history of being related to the US Presidents John and John Q Adams. We also have a result from three men with a documented relationship to the Presidential family (See Presidential Adams below.) The test results show ten families with the oral history do not have a common ancestor within genealogical time. Thus one must conclude that the family stories are refuted by the Y-DNA results or that the documented history for the Presidential Adams family is in error. With the data at this time I would believe the documented history over the oral histories. | Family Tree DNA - Genealogy by Genetics, Ltd.
