Description
The CALVERT (and variant spellings) Surname Y-DNA Study's
central theme and progress is found via the auspices of the FT/DNA Surname project. See detail and description for more information at the Family Tree DNA page for the Calvert Surname project.
The Project Home Page at FT/DNA is located here:
Our FT/DNA Home Page
The Y-DNA testing for the Calvert surname, as well as its variants, will aid researchers to establish links between the numerous unconnected Calvert lineages which have reached a brick wall in tracing their ancestry.
Males with the surname Calvert, or one of its variants, are all cordially invited to become test participants. We also have begun an associated MT/DNA project. Please review the information from FamilyTreeDNA for information on mitochondrial DNA.
We encourage those interested to assist in finding Calverts of male descent, even with dis-similar surnames to become a participant in the project. (For those with dis-similar surnames: if your family history indicates that Calvert ancestry is in the genetic ancestry). See individual Surname projects first. If DNA does not match them, see the varied spellings that "Calvert" has demonstrated in public records that match other surname spellings.
Current participants' pedigrees can be viewed on our website. This is an ongoing project and growing by leaps and bounds.
Test participants, and anyone else interested in the Calvert Surname Y-DNA Study, may join our project's mailing list at Yahoo Groups. You must be a registered yahoo user to access the group. this was done in order to prevent spam and unsolicited email. When you click on the link below, you will be taken to Yahoo Groups.

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.
