The Holbert Family Project encourages researchers to find their common heritage through sharing of information and DNA testing. All spelling variations are welcome. If your Surname is missing and should be included, we'll be glad to add it. Surnames include: Halbert, Hilbert, Hillebert, Hilpert, Holber, Holbert, Halberd Big Y-700 is the preferred test. It is probably the most important test you can take. It is a Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) test that discovers new SNPs by scanning over 14.5 million locations on the Y chromosome. A tremendous benefit is you will discover SNPs for just your paternal lineage as well as identify ancient SNPs that you may share with many, many other people. Big Y has the ability to discover SNPs that are pertinent to the genealogical timeframe, the last couple of hundred years.
