Description
We are looking for as many Tyner-Tiner males as possible who share in our desire to link up isolated clans that have common ancestory. While y-dna links males father-to-son back as far as it can be recorded, the ladies will find mt-dna offers you tracking possibilities though it is much more difficult. Even more, there are several specialized tests available to you that can show geographical origins, Native American ancestry as well as many others.
Are the Ohio, New York, Canadian, California, Texas, North Carolina, Georgia and Indiana Tyners related? Did your research hit the brick wall with Richard, David, Harris, Nicholas, Benjamin, William, Sarah, John or Dempsey? Y-DNA is a tool, one of many. It doesn't answer direct questions for everyone but it is a valuable adjunct to be used with your hard won paper trail. Join us and help your cousins take a brick out of the wall!

Tammy recently created a new Tyner-Tiner DNA website at:
http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~tynerdna/
You will see more variants of the name have been entered and if after testing these are found to be more appropriate to another surname, they may be transferred at their option. We have also updated the membership DNA list with known subgroups. We welcome you to the Tyner-Tiner Project! Tammy, Ken and Bill
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.
