About us
Project Goals ...
The goal of the Speight Family DNA Project is to combine the traditional paper trail with DNA to help break through those brick walls and ultimately trace our Speight(s) genetic lineages back to their origins in England. Not only do we use Y-DNA & mtDNA test results to help us achieve these goals, but we also include triangulated Autosomal DNA (Family Finder) results which has been proven to be a very useful tool in helping to solve many family lines. Our hope is to also be able to isolate and identify specific Autosomal DNA chromosome segments that our members inherited from their Speight(s) ancestors. If you have taken the Y-DNA, mtDNA, or Autosomal DNA (atDNA - Family Finder or other 3rd party) tests and descend from a Speight(s) ancestor or variously spelled surnames then we invite you to join our project. Our project is open to both male and female Speight family descendants.
Please be sure that you are logged into your FTDNA account when clicking on the "Join" link on our site and sending your join request. If you've taken your DNA test through a 3rd party and do not yet have a FTDNA account, but would still like to participate in the project, please email our project administrator with your request at alabamafeverdna@gmail.com.
