Project Goals
Surname Y-DNA testing is the newest tool available to genealogists. These tests help genealogists verify their paternal ancestry (father's father) in a quick and easy way. It saves time, prevents mistakes, and provides invaluable data that can be obtained in no other way.
Project objectives:
Primarily a y-DNA project.
Help tested members understand y-dna and how it applies to their ancestry.
Provide free, private google forums, owned by Lineage Coordinators, for YDNA reporting by the project administrators and for discussions by tested and related researchers.
With member participation, actively seek new tests that benefit existing or known key lineages.
Attempt to "cross the pond" by recruiting Phelps whose lines have never been in America.
Provide financial assistance for FTDNA tests where lineages benefit existing members.
