This project is for male descendants of the Belcher line. We follow only Y-DNA results of Belcher men. Results of other tests (i.e., Family Finder or mtDNA) are not included in our results table. There is no advantage to joining the project if you are not planning to take a Y-DNA test. Project discounts have been discontinued by FTDNA. Occasionally men with surnames other than Belcher learn from their Y-DNA tests that they actually match Belcher Y-DNA participants much more closely than participants in their current surname project. They are welcome to join and their Y-DNA results will be included in our results table. There is also a Belcher Y-DNA website on RootsWeb: freepages.rootsweb.com/~belcherfamilydna/genealogy_html/DNA. However, due to changes in the administration of this project, updates to this RootsWeb site may be discontinued after April 2022.
