This Surname DNA Project is primarily for all with the 2-syllable Sower/Sauer beginning to their surname. It's been asserted that in England 'Sowers' derives linguistically from an ancestral surname of 'Sowerby', but we hope to measure the correctness of that statement by seeing if the Y-DNA of men with each of those 2 surnames demonstrates derivation from a common ancestor. If your Surname spelling is missing, we'll be glad to add it.
