About us
This Y-DNA project was established to assist and include all interested persons whose ancestors bear one of the variations of the Bodiford surname.
Early U.S. Bodifords in existing records are as follows:
1763 Bladen County, North Carolina, Tax List
Green Obodyford
1790 U.S. Census
James Bodiford, Robeson County, North Carolina
1800 U.S. Census
William Bodiford, Robeson County, North Carolina
Alexr Bodyford, Marlboro District, South Carolina
1810 U.S. Census
Robert Bodford, Shelby County, Kentucky
Nathan Boddiford, Greene County, New York
Alex Bodiford, Marlboro District, South Carolina
Isham Bodiford, Barnwell County, South Carolina
Silas Boddiford, Colleton District, South Carolina
John Bodford, Charles City County, Virginia
It is not clear if these Bodiford individuals are related.
I am interested in documenting the genetic heritage of persons of the Bodiford surname in all of its spellings. The project may show that some of the spelling variations are distinct lineages which would be useful knowledge for all.
The purpose may change as participants offer their ideas about the project purpose.
