About us

We are 23 months into this project. We have 22 kits ordered and 19 kits have been returned. I feel that is a great beginning. The more people who participate, the richer the results will be. I am interested in direct male descendants of all Brownlow's regardless of nationality. This is a world wide project.

LINEAGES:
Lineages of Participants
Lineages will begin with ancestors born on or before 1905 to reserve the privacy of the participants.
