About us

Join Our Malin DNA Project We invite you to participate in our Malin DNA project, which is open to: • Men who are Y-DNA descendants of a Malin family. • Individuals who are mtDNA descendants of Randal Malin's two wives, Elizabeth (surname unknown) and Mary Hollingsworth. If you are unable to trace your Malin lineage to a specific ancestor or lack sufficient evidence to support your paternal line, we encourage you to join our project and compare your results with ours. If you have already completed a DNA test with AncestryDNA™, 23andMe©, or MyHeritage™, you can download your results and upload them to Family Tree DNA (FTDNA) for free. For detailed instructions on this process, please visit the FTDNA website: Autosomal DNA Transfers Guide (https://help.familytreedna.com/hc/en-us/articles/4402392808463-Autosomal-DNA-Transfers-Guide). Once you have uploaded your results, you can choose to purchase one of two tests: Y-DNA STR markers or the Big Y-700 test. We look forward to your participation!
