GERMANY, GERMYN, GERMAYE, GERMAN, GERMANI, GERMAYNE, GARMANY, GARMIGNY, GERMIGNY, GERMAIN, JERMAIN, GERMANICUM, GERMINY, and any other spelling variation are welcome. Only males have Y-chromosomes, so only male GERMANYs can participate in the y-DNA Results. If you are female, you can have a male GERMANY relative submit a sample for your line. To participate meaningfully, testees will need to share their direct male line ancestry back to the earliest known GERMANY, in the form of a pedigree (excluding living persons).
