Theissen FamilyTree DNA Project Website

Project Goals

The goal is to find the "Adam & Eve" of the Theissen bloodline. The thesis is that sometime around 800-900 AD, an ancestor changed his name to Theissen.

Whether Theissen means "Son of Matthew", perhaps the Apostle Matthew, during the Christianization of the Germanic Tribes, or whether Theissen means "Son of The Mayor (SchulTheis)", we would like to find that ancestor - and his (and her) descendants.
