This surname project is open to all families with the surnames Symes, Sims and other variant spellings. Jim Sims is the project administrator.Please join our DNA study, focused mainly on Y-DNA, if you have an interest in genetic genealogy. Most people turn to DNA testing in an attempt to find related families when the paper trail backward in time seems to come to an end.

Alex Buchanan spends most of his time administering other DNA projects these days when he is not exploring Australia and Tasmania, so try contacting Jim Sims first, if you have questions or need help.  He can be reached at: jimsims.mi@gmail.com
