Description
Sreenan Shreenan Schreenan are the most common form of the name today, however, Screenan, Srenan, Screnan, Screanan, Shreeman, Srinen and O’Sreenan and other spelling variations have also been used. The Sreenan / Shreenan / Schreenan DNA Project is attempting to connect as many family charts or trees as possible by using DNA testing.
Only males have Y-chromosomes, so only males with the surname Sreenan or its variations, derived from their father, can participate. If you are female, you can have a male Sreenan relative submit a sample for your line.
To participate meaningfully, participants will are asked to share their direct male line ancestry back to their earliest known Sreenan ancestor in the form of a brief pedigree chart. We will provide assistance as we already have approx 100 Sreenan Shreenan & Schreenan charts or trees containing over 5000 names from Ireland, Scotland, England, the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand & Germany.
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.
