About us

The participants in the Horn/Horne Project have been placed in specific groups based on their Y-DNA results:

(NOTE: The earliest known ancestor for each group is noted below.)
 
Horn Group 1:  (38 members)  Richard Horn, born before 1716 and died 1779, Halifax County, NC. Other ancestors are Ephraim Horn, born in 1734, Sherrod Horn, born 1760, and William Horn, born 1768. This group includes 6 members with the surname of McEntire.
 
Horn Group 2:  (8 members)  Henry Horn, born 1716 and died 1798. Two men with the last name of Hunt are also members of this group. One may consider that the Horn and Hunt members in this group most likely shared a common ancestor sometime in the past. This leads to the following questions: Was this common ancestor named Horn or was he named Hunt? When did the Non Paternal Event occur?
