Description
The Glisson DNA Project is open to all those genetically related to the surnames below. This list is not meant to be complete, and no one surname is more important than another. Just as DNA mutates over time, family surnames mutate as well, leading to an array of possible variations. This project aims to determine the various origins of those with the Glisson surname, to connect people who are genetically related to each other, and to confirm genealogical evidence with DNA data.
Included surnames:
Glasson, Glezen, Glisane, Glison, Glissen, Glisson, Glosson, Glyssane, Glysson, O Gliasáin, O'Glassane, Ó Glasáin, Ó Glesáin
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.
