About us
The goals of this project are:
To bring together genealogical researchers of the McQuaid surname and it variants (McQuade, Quaid, Quade, possibly others),
To establish closely related McQuaid / McQuade / Quaid / Quade surname subgroups, and try to determine the ancestry and geographical roots of the various families,
To investigate our haplogroups by ordering SNP tests,
To try to determine if any of us could be descended from the Quadi tribe of Germany who migrated across the Pyrenees to Portugal.
