Welcome to the Hance Family DNA Project! Hance family members can be found throughout the world. The objective of the Hance family project is to help Hance family members analyze their DNA and to further understand their genealogy as well as organizing the analysis of DNA testing to help us understand more about the origins of the Hance surname. If you possess the last name “Hance” or are a direct biological descendant of a member of the Hance family then please join this project! If you are considering whether DNA testing can help you in researching your Hance lineage, please feel free to look around our webpage. We strongly recommend direct-to-consumer personal genome testing for everyone! We suggest using the tests and technology offered by FamilyTreeDNA (owned by Gene by Gene, Ltd.) because their DNA tests are most easily integrated into the Hance family project's database. There are other companies which offer Y-DNA testing as well, and we welcome those results, however we need to integrate those results manually. If you have results that you'd like us to integrate manually, or if you would need additional help or have any questions, please contact our group project administrator. You can contact the group project administrator via e-mail at: joshuahance@protonmail.com Thank you for reading! Sincerely, Joshua Hance Group Project Administrator
