About us

The Shields Surname Project (including the many variant spellings) was organized in July 9, 2003. Having read many success stories in matches with DNA for genealogical purposes, the original administrator decided that it was time to try to advance Shields family research where frequently there are no written documents to help to prove one's ancestry. Since the FamilyTree DNA Company was dedicated to DNA for genealogy, it was chosen as the target company to begin this endeavor. 

Since its commencement many changes have taken place within the FamilyTree DNA Company to advance testing for genealogy with many, varied options available to the participant. The success of the Project will depend on the number of male participants who join the y-DNA testing group, as well the documentation of the research connected with each line regarding dates and locations of births, deaths marriages, etc. The original Shields Project Homepage and Charts created on Freepages is no longer available.
