The HP Families 590=6 Y-DNA Project is a mixed surname project seeking to find the connection between the various families included in the project. Each of the surnames included in this project have had a least one member who have taken at least a 67 Y-DNA marker test which reported DYS590=6 as the 42nd marker tested. Those who have taken the 37 Y-DNA marker test or less are also eligible to join if they are a match to a member with any of the surnames who tested DYS590=6. In addition all of these surnames have been tested or are projected to be members of Haplogroup R-M269 or a subclade thereof including R-L48, R-U152, R-Z192, or PF6653.
