Description
The goals of the Craddock Family Surname Project are:
1) To identify and understand the early Craddock male lines in America, with special attention to Virginia, Kentucky, the Carolinas, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, and Texas;
2) To compare our genealogies and documents and, through DNA testing, work to identify the first Craddock ancestors in America;
3) To determine the places of origin of Craddock immigrants; and
4) To help Craddocks worldwide understand our shared family heritage.
The Craddock Family Project is open to all who are interested in working together to achieve these goals through the sharing of genealogical information and DNA testing. As this is a surname project, participants must be male with the last name Craddock. All surname variants are welcomed.
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.
