For researchers of
Worden, Warden, Werden, Werding, Wharton
and similar surnames
Welcome to the Worden DNA Project!
DNA testing has become a new standard for genealogical proof. Whether you have spent many years researching your family or you are a newcomer to genealogy, DNA testing can help you determine your family origins. While it does not work in a vacuum and is most useful when combined with a traditional paper trail, DNA testing can provide scientific evidence that you do or do not share a common ancestor with another. Read on to learn more about how this new tool can help you with your own genealogy.
NEWS! The FTDNA Fund for the Worden DNA Project has a balance of only $50. Contributions to this fund are always welcome from anyone who is interested in advancing the genealogy of the Worden families and are used to fund carefully selected tests for candidates who are unable or unwilling to pay for them, but are willing and able to provide the required DNA sample. For example, the Project has an opportunity to obtain the presumed genetic signature of Mary, wife of Peter Worden II. To date, her name is unknown, but a DNA test could lead to her identification, a long sought goal of the Worden Family Association and her many descendants. We have learned of a living descendant in the maternal line -- the only person known to have a direct maternal line to Mary, but funding is needed to pay for the required test. Won't you help? Please go to the Worden General Fund to contribute.
NEWS! For those who have already tested with certain other companies...
February 1, 2012: Family Tree DNA now offers the ability to transfer results from 23andMe and other companies, thus giving us the opportunity to compare test results with them. For details seehttp://genealem-geneticgenealogy.blogspot.com/ or http://www.yourgeneticgenealogist.com/.
Family Tree DNA has always welcomed customers from the National Geographic/Genographic Projecti without charge because FTDNA does all the testing for it and already has the actual samples. Recently, Family Tree DNA acquired DNA Heritage and invites its customers to join FTDNA and any appropriate projects at no cost. It has now announced a new program whereby anyone who has tested with Ancestry, GeneTree or Sorenson’s SMGF may transfer his or her results for the nominal fee of $19.
Why would you want to do that?
· Family Tree DNA has the largest database of DNA test results in the world and the largest number of projects for surnames, geographical origins and haplogroups.
· It focuses on genealogical DNA testing and adds new and better tools all the time to improve the value of testing for genealogy.
· You may order:
o Y-DNA tests from FTDNA in increments from 12 to 25, 37, 67, and 111 to continually enhance your matches to others.
o Three mtDNAi tests – HVR1, HVR2 and FGS which covers the entire mitochondria for maternal matches.
o The Family Finder (or autosomal) test which covers all the rest of your chromosomes for both men and women to find cousins to the 5th degree, thus expanding your opportunities to add to your genealogical knowledge.
o A wide array of tests that refine your haplogroup assignment, determine your placement on the tree of mankind, called the Haplotree, and offer you the opportunity to participate in finding new SNPs on that tree. If you have an assigned haplogroup, see http://www.isogg.org/tree/ to find your current placement and to see what subgroups may already have been found for your haplogroup.
The following is a quote from the FTDNA announcement to project administrators:
This $19 fee will be credited to customers who order upgrades or add-ons. For an additional $39, customers who transfer their third party results will also have additional markers tested so that they can receive matches to Family Tree DNA's 25 or 37-marker level, ancestral origins, and other features of the personal pagei.
What do you get when you transfer third party results?
The $19 fee will provide the customer with a Family Tree DNA personal page which will allow them to join Family Tree DNA projects freely. This means results will be available to the administrator and included on the project's public page for comparison with other project members.
The $58 fee ($19 transfer fee + $39 for the added markers to Family Tree DNA's 25 or 37-marker level) will include the same features provided to Family Tree DNA customers in their personal pages.
For any additional questions related to Third Party transfer, please refer to our FAQ section for help.
If you ordered a DNA test from Relative Geneticsi, Oxford Ancestors, or Genebase, FTDNA continues to offer reduced pricing to those who join an existing project at FTDNA. To take advantage of this special offer, please be sure to contact the project administrator to obtain a special order form: Worden Project Administrator.
NEWS! The new Grant Program is now available from the Worden Family Association. Scroll to the bottom of the page to the section titled "Worden Family Association Bill and Pat Worden DNA Fund" for details.
Why DNA testing?
Surname DNA testing is the newest tool available to genealogists. These tests help genealogists verify their paternal ancestry (father's father's father, etc.) in a quick and easy way. It saves time, prevents mistakes, and provides invaluable data that can be obtained in no other way. The only cost is for the testing itself. We project administrators are volunteers who hope to gain knowledge about our own heritage. We receive no compensation or incentives from Family Tree DNA or any other entity. Note that only a male with any of the subject surnames may participate but, if you have Worden, Warden or similar ancestry, you can be represented by even a distant cousin whose name is Worden, Warden, etc. Note that only a male with any of the subject surnames may participate but, if you have Worden ancestry, you can be represented by even a distant cousin.
Why should you become involved?
Reading the news, watching specials on Public Television, seeing the many articles popping up in all the major news magazines … Doesn’t it make you wonder how modern science, and DNA testing in particular, can help solve some of your genealogical puzzles? After spending years rummaging through courthouses, libraries, family papers, cemeteries and the internet, aren’t you ready to use the latest tool to find your roots, once and for all?
How does it work? Scientists mapping the human genome in 2000 found it consisted of about 3 billion pairs of DNA chemicals or "letters," and that those letters were 99.9 percent similar from one person to the next. It's within that 0.1 percent difference that the science of genetic genealogy was born. Just like notations in an old Bible or census records, family history is recorded in our genes. A father's Y chromosome DNA is passed down virtually unchanged to his sons while mothers pass down their mitochondrial DNA to their sons and daughters. While MtDNA can help us find our earliest roots, long before surnames came into existence, it is the Y-DNA that only males carry that holds the secret for genealogical purposes. And Ladies, don’t feel left out. Just find a male cousin – even a distant one – and he can represent your line.
As a Worden descendant who has done my share of “rummaging,” I decided to make science work for me and all the other Worden researchers out there who have “holes” in their paper trail or want to extend their research to:
* Eliminate or confirm relationships.
* Focus research towards related families.
* Direct research into a geographical area.
* Direct research into a specific timeframe.
* Establish country or region of origin.
* Confirm variant surnames are the same family.
* Learn about our family's pre-surname migration.
* Strengthen weak paper trails.
* Avoid pursuing false connections.
Few of us are entirely comfortable with the research we and others before us have done. Virtually all our findings have words like “probably,” “could,” “may,” “perhaps,” and “assuming” liberally scattered throughout. Let’s get to the bottom line. We’ve exhausted all the traditional research tools. It’s time to let a simple, painless DNA test provide the answers. The cost is a few tanksful of gas or probably no more than a research trip to a nearby town. Think about gas, tolls, parking fees, copying costs, meals, possibly an overnight stay – all sometimes yielding little or no new information. Instead, you could simply swab the inside of your cheek a few times in the comfort of your home. Then sit back and wait about six weeks. You will receive a handsome certificate displaying your genetic profile, a series of numbers that are meaningless by themselves. But they hold the key to your paternal ancestry and, when matched against the profiles of others, can yield information that can be obtained in no other way. Those numbers will be compared against the ever-growing database at Family Tree DNA and at other universal databases and you will likely find other testees whose results match yours, if not immediately then in future years. You will be notified as new matches occur.
As you can see on the Results page at this website, we have so far identified two Worden/Warden lines. For some, the results are not surprising because the traditional genealogies have pointed to them all along, but now the proof is indisputable. For others, the results suggest some clear research avenues to pursue. For still others, there may be a nonpaternal event in some distant generation, such as an unknown adoption, and there may be an opportunity to find a heretofore unsuspected genealogy. Or no clear match emerges, in which case the testee can expect a future match as more men are tested.
This Family Project is intended to:
1. Help researchers on common or related families work together to find their common heritage (see the Pedigrees section below).
2. Identify the DNA of the ancestor families and compile them and their lost branches into distinct genetic lineages through DNA matches.

DNA Testing Policy
Recognizing that DNA testing has become an essential tool for confirming a genealogical paper trail, determining a common ancestor and extending one’s genealogy when the paper trail ends, the Worden Family Association Board has adopted the following set of guidelines.
Every Worden male, or at least the oldest male in a family, is encouraged to have at least the basic 12-marker Y-DNA test. The results of this test will prove, with 99 percent certainty, that he descends from Dr. Samuel Worden b. 1646 or from his ancestor. If his results do not match the DNA signature that has been established for Dr. Samuel Worden and his Worden ancestors, then he either descends from an unrelated Worden ancestor or a nonpaternal event such as an adoption has occurred at some point in his lineage. Further testing beyond 12 markers should eventually determine where line breaks have occurred. For example, for many Worden descendants the paper trail ends in the 1700s or even later. By determining via DNA testing which son of Dr. Samuel they descend from, they would then be able to narrow their research to that particular line.
To further this goal, a special fund has been established. Of course it is expected that those who have an interest in a particular individual’s DNA test results – whether that is the person to be tested, a relative or the family genealogist – will normally pay for the testing itself. Grants will be considered only for those who cannot afford to pay. The Bill and Pat Worden Fund will help pay for these tests through grants (see Grant Application below), as follows:
* Any Worden male who wishes to be tested and can provide some evidence of research into his own Worden genealogy but cannot afford to pay for his own test may apply to the Association for a grant.
* Any Worden male whose initial test results and paper genealogy suggest that further testing will be of benefit to the Association may have such further testing paid for by the Association if he or another interested party is unwilling or unable to pay.
Given that the Association has a clear and strong interest in the results of DNA testing as they pertain to Worden family genealogy, everyone who has tested or will test in the future will be asked to agree to the following:
Because the science of DNA testing is in its infancy and new tests are likely to be made available in the future, I authorize the Worden Family Association to order additional testing of the DNA sample that is currently held by Family Tree DNA (FTDNA). Upgrades may be paid for by myself, my relatives, the Association or individual Association members. The DNA sample itself will be held by FTDNA according to its own policy. This approval can be rescinded at any time by me by notifying the Association in writing and reimbursing the Association for this grant.
Bill and Pat Worden DNA Fund Grant Application
This application, as well as the actual order with Family Tree DNA (FTDNA), may be completed by either the prospective testee or his sponsor/nominee. I/we cannot pay for part or all of DNA testing and hereby request a grant to be applied to a DNA test with Family Tree DNA. Additional information appears below under “Reason for grant request.” Evidence of my genealogical research is attached.

Worden Project Pedigrees
The pedigree is an essential part of genetic genealogy. We invite all researchers of the Worden and similar surnames to submit their proven pedigrees for posting on the Patriarch page. Please follow the format of the pedigrees posted on this page. Be sure to include a Line Leader (researcher) as your first entry.
Note that the pedigrees posted to this site are not guaranteed for accuracy by the Worden DNA Project, but are the submissions of the individual DNA participants. Any data provided should always be independently proven. Because the Worden Family Association has proven some part of these lineages, we have arbitrarily chosen to replace the first three generations (Peter I, Peter II, Dr. Samuel) with the accepted (proven) data as provided by the WFA.
Click here to send your Pedigree information for the Patriarch Page
The pedigrees that follow are organized by the earliest known Worden ancestor and are based upon the traditional genealogy, or paper trail, in an effort to make comparisons easier. Your comments are always welcome.
