Updated 20 Nov 2022 This is a Surname project and not an ethnicity project. To help find family connections for the FRENCHs of all spellings and variations. By joining the group you agree to provide the project with 3 things. 1) The surname of the person being tested. 2) The name, date and place of birth of the oldest researched male ancestor of your male patrilineal line and the oldest researched female ancestor of your matrilineal line. 3) Permission to publish the DNA results and the names, dates and places of birth of the oldest known patrilineal or matrilineal ancestor. This is essentially a Y-DNA Project which means for males who carry the surname of FRENCH. Females who do not have Y-DNA may join, but are requested to get a male from their FRENCH line to get YDNA tested.
