Description
The goal of this project is to connect the various ORRICK branches around the US. The project also welcomes ORICK ARRICK and ARICK surnames because traditional research shows some of those are also connected. ORROCK is certainly welcome in order to confirm connections back to Scotland. Variations such as ARIC, ARK, OROUCK and others are also welcome.

If the cost of the test (~$200) is stopping you from joining, please let me know.

Requirements
A Surname Project traces members of a family that share a common surname. They are of the most interest in cultures where surnames are passed on from father to son like the Y-Chromosome. This project is for males taking a Y-Chromosome DNA (Y-DNA) test. Thus, the individual who tests must be a male who wants to check his direct paternal line (father's father's father's...) with a Y-DNA12, Y-DNA37, Y-DNA67, or Y-DNA111 test and who has one of the surnames listed for the project. Females do not carry their father's Y-DNA. Females who would like to check their father's direct paternal line can have a male relative with his surname order a Y-DNA test. Females can also order an mtDNA test for themselves such as the mtDNAPlus test or the mtFullSequence test and participate in an mtDNA project. Both men and women may take our autosomal Family Finder test to discover recent relationships across all family lines.
