Description
This site is an all-volunteer investigative project of private Roscoe/Rasco/Ruscoe researchers. Designed to help Y-DNA, mtDNA & atDNA testers compare Roscoe and related spellings of our surname. We aim to find our earliest detectable origins and prove or disprove relationships between and within these family lines. The umbrella surname Roscoe, as used on this website, typically includes related surnames such as Racicot, Rasco, Rascoe, Roscow, Ruscoe, Rouscoue, Rosko, and so on.
Requirements
A Surname Project traces members of a family that share a common surname. They are of the most interest in cultures where surnames are passed on from father to son like the Y-Chromosome. This project is for males taking a Y-Chromosome DNA (Y-DNA) test. Thus, the individual who tests must be a male who wants to check his direct paternal line (father's father's father's...) with a Y-DNA12, Y-DNA37, Y-DNA67, or Y-DNA111 test and who has one of the surnames listed for the project. Females do not carry their father's Y-DNA. Females who would like to check their father's direct paternal line can have a male relative with his surname order a Y-DNA test. Females can also order an mtDNA test for themselves such as the mtDNAPlus test or the mtFullSequence test and participate in an mtDNA project. Both men and women may take our autosomal Family Finder test to discover recent relationships across all family lines.
