<p>Hello and thanks for visiting the CORCA LAIDHE regional yDNA project. We appreciate the time you are taking to carefully read our materials. We welcome the participation of eligible and interested men.</p>
<p>Corca Laidhe is a REGIONAL STUDY of an archaeogenetic nature dealing with multiple surnames, multiple Y haplotypes and haplogroups. Findings might be presented at genealogical conferences and talks or published in places beyond FTDNA.</p>
<div style='text-align: center;'><img src="http://corcalaidhe.dnagen.org/images/CorcaLaidheRegion.png" style='border: .2em ridge green;' /></div>
<p>Project members are expected to have experience with FTDNA Y-DNA testing, some experience with genealogy research, and most of all be committed to the <a href="https://www.familytreedna.com/groups/corca-laidhe/about/goals" target="_new">goals</a> of the project and to filling out and sharing their account data. A FTDNA Y-DNA test of Y111 or Big Y (on order or completed) are required.</p>
<p><span style='font-size: larger; color: red; font-weight: bold;'>Your paternal line ancestry is presumably from somewhere within the British Isles. Knowledge of the exact location (townland, parish, county, shire) is NOT required. Known paternal line ancestry from the Corca Laidhe region is not required.</span></p>
<p><b>WHAT THIS PROJECT IS NOT.</b> This is NOT a project for a DNA novice. This is NOT a yDNA surname project or a single Y haplogroup / branch project. <b>Nor is it a single haplogroup branch project, autosomal or mitochondrial DNA project.</b> See our project <a href="https://www.familytreedna.com/groups/corca-laidhe/about/goals" target="_new">GOALS</a> for further details.</p>
<p><b>REQUIREMENTS.</b> The tester must carry a Corca Laidhe <a href="https://www.familytreedna.com/groups/corca-laidhe/surnames" target="_new">surname</a> as his direct paternal line name and have a FTDNA yDNA test of 111 markers or Big Y already completed or on order from FTDNA.</p>
<p>NO EXCEPTIONS on the surname for name changes, adoptions, etc and NO EXCEPTIONS on the testing or name requirements. It is not sufficient to have a Corca Laidhe surname elsewhere in your ancestry.</p>
<p><b>EXPECTATIONS.</b> Members are expected to bear an innate interest in Cork, Munster, and Ireland genetic history. Members must be willing share their family history and DNA results. <b>Known paternal ancestry from the Corca Laidhe region is not required.</b> Members should have <b>some</b> genealogy research experience, <b>some</b> experience interpreting their yDNA results, and <b>some</b> familiarity navigating their FTDNA accounts.</p>
<p>Read the <a href="https://www.familytreedna.com/groups/corca-laidhe/about/goals" target="_new">GOALS</a> and the <a href="https://www.familytreedna.com/groups/corca-laidhe/about/background" target="_new">BACKGROUND</a> pages to help you decide if you are interested.

<p>If you are looking for an Internet Cork genetics venue on which to participate with your Cork-based autosomal or mitochondrial DNA, or you want to see Cork-relevant Y surname projects, see the resources at <a href="https://www.familytreedna.com/groups/cork-ireland" target="_new">Cork Ireland</a>. Search FTDNA for haplogroup projects relevant to your Y haplogroup.</p>
<p>If you want genealogy research help, see our <a href="https://www.familytreedna.com/groups/corca-laidhe/links" target="_new">LINKs</a>. We do not provide assistance with your genealogy research via private email, though we may on occasion (time permitting) lend a hand to a project member.</p>
<p><span style='text-align: center; border-bottom: thin ridge blue;'>____________________________________________________</span></p>
<p>Historically, project growth and development have been slow. The project got a major overhaul in 2018, sharpening the project goals and consequently boosting and tightening up eligibility requirements. Testing requirements were tightened in 2024. <b>Expect work and updates to REMAIN VERY SLOW.</b></p>
