About us
The Darby and Derbyshire Family Project is open to all who are interested in working together to find their common heritage through sharing of information and DNA testing. All variant spellings are welcome. If your surname is missing and should be included, we'll be glad to add it.
If you're a biological male with the surname Darby, Derbyshire, or a variant spelling then you're encouraged to upgrade to FamilyTreeDNA's Big Y-700 test to maximise our learnings about the history of these surnames and our ability to map them out over time. You can also help by encouraging your 111/67/37 matches to upgrade, and by encouraging your most distant known patrilineal cousins to take a Y-DNA test.
