2017-2021
Wendy Dillenschneider and Greg Liverman assumed the administration of the Everett Y-DNA Project effective December 2017. Members test results have been grouped by haplogroup and the project pages have been updated with new information.

Wendy is a descendant of Richard Everitt of England (1613-1668) on her mother's (Bette Everett) side. Bette grew up in Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania. Her Everitt/Everett immigrants settled in Springfield, Massachusetts, and migrated through Long Island, new York, before finally settling in Pennsylvania about 1736. Wendy has an extensive tree of Everett relatives, some of whom have taken DNA tests.

Greg Liverman is Wendy's husband. He is a descendant of Simon Everett (1766). He has been actively researching his family lines since 2008. Both Wendy and Greg earned their PhD degrees in Chemistry at Rice University in Houston. Naturally they gravitated to genetic genealogy as a fun and interesting tool in the genealogy research basket. They operate a genealogical consulting business in Colorado, Pinewood Genealogy. Besides consulting with private clients, they lecture extensively, primarily on genetic genealogy topics, through put Colorado and across the United States.

After attending the Family Tree DNA International Genetic Genealogy Conference in November 2017, Greg discovered Craig A. Everett, long time genealogist, genetic genealogy pioneer, creator of the Everett Y-DNA project and creator of the Everett Generations website, has passed away suddenly in July 2017. Greg immediately volunteered to administer the Everett Y-DNA Project and collaborated with the Everett Generations website co-admin, Gale Everett Goodall, to transition responsibilities for the Y-DNA project. They quickly agreed to a division of labor:

• Greg and Wendy will administer the Everett Y-DNA Project on Family Tree DNA
• Gale Goodall will administer the Everett Generations website

Craig Everett was an early pioneer of Y-DNA testing and genetic genealogy. He leaves behind a substantial legacy of genealogical work that will serve Everett family researchers for many, many years.

At this time we plan to freeze the legacy DNA pages on Everett Generations as they were last updated by Craig Everett as reference material. Portions of those pages may be moved over to the new Y-DNA project web pages on the Family Tree DNA servers.

In the short term we plan to:

• clean up website links and text DONE
  

• sort and organize all the Y-DNA test results in the project to facilitate comparisons between test results DONE
  

• send emails to project members informing them of the change in project administration and requesting them to update their profile information with oldest ancestor, add surnames to the surname list on their accounts, add pedigree charts to MyFamilyTree on their accounts and encourage them to upgrade to more detailed Y-DNA tests: Y-37/67/111, recommended SNP packs or Big-Y
