Description
Updated 14 September 2024
The Big Y 700 is our test of choice for males.
To help find family connections for the MEDLOCKs of all spelling and variations. By joining the group you agree to provide the project with 3 things.
1) The surname of the person being tested.
2) The name, date and place of birth of the oldest researched male ancestor of your male patrilineal line and the oldest researched female ancestor of your matrilineal line.
3) Permission to publish the DNA results and the names, dates and places of birth of the oldest known patrilineal or matrilineal ancestor.
This is the page to link colonial *Medlocks/Matlocks/Matlack* and their descendants. Maybe dna will help to clarify lines. As an example, in SC we have Luke Absolam, Charles, Samuel, John, George, Silas, and my James, Nathaniel, William, Thomas, Reuben, Littleberry from 1790 to 1830.
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.
