About us

2015.  Kit 383791. Stephen Tuttle writes: I have upgraded to Y-DNA37 and continue to match exactly with two members of the Stackhouse Project.  My most distant known male ancestor is Charles William Tuttle. He was a runaway, stating he disagreed with his family about the Civil War.  He was in the Church B. Tuttle household in 1860 in Barlow Station Ohio, but listed as Charles Stockbridge age 9.  We assume he took on the Tuttle name but it may not have been legally done. Looking for any information on a Stackhouse family living in Pennsylvania 1850-1860 time frame.  Maybe a Charles born in 1850 that disappeared.
Stephen has also give permission to publish his email address here.  sthetut at gmail.com (of course substitute @ for 'at'.

Jack line:

Paternal great grandfather: Charles William Stackhouse, was born in Molinnis, St. Austell, Cornwall July 25th 1870. He migrated to America in 1870 due to the decline of the china clay industry in St. Austell. He returned to St. Austell in 1896 and married Laura Lukes and returned to Chicago, Illinois, USA afterwards. Laura Lukes was born in St. Austelle, November 29, 1870. Her parents were William Lukes (born 1840 in Luxulyan, Cornwall) and Johanna Radford (born 1840 in Roche, Cornwall).

Charles Stackhouse’s father was John Wedlake Stackhouse, born in Luxulyan, Cornwall in 1841. He died in a mining accident in California, USA in the late 1870s. He left Cornwall due to the collapse of the tin mining industry there, as well as the attractive wages in the US mining industry.
 
John's father was James Stackhouse, born 1809 in West Stonehouse, Devon.

James' father was also named James Stackhouse (II). He was a Royal marine. He waas born in Pelsal, Staffordshire, England in 1777. James died at barracks in 1815 in Plymouth, England.

If you want more information about your direct male line, you must be male, or find a male in your family tree such as your brother or father to participate. For the male, the direct male line would be his father, his father's father, and so forth back in time. The male would order a Y DNA test.

Taking a Y DNA test is an opportunity to discover information on three levels:

- Genealogical
- Surname
- Anthropological

The primary use of Genetic Genealogy testing is to provide information which cannot be found in the paper records to help you with your genealogy research. The applications of DNA testing for genealogy are as diverse as the problems that can be encountered in your research. For example, perhaps you are trying to bridge the gap of destroyed records, or trying to sort out multiple families with the same surname in a location. Perhaps you have encountered a brick wall, or can not make a connection to the ancestral homeland.

Once you take a Y-DNA test, you will be able to determine which other family trees with your surname are related to you.

DNA testing for genealogy is a tremendous opportunity to uncover information not found in the paper records, to provide information to help you with your genealogy research, to contribute to the knowledge about your surname, and to learn about your distant origins.
