Description
WANTED Megonnigil/McGonnigil/Mcgonigal/McGonagill/Mcgonigle/McGunnegle/
McGonagle/Mac, Mc, M', O'or any other way you spell it. This project was started due to the oh so many different ways of spelling the name, which seem to lead to that proverbial Brick Wall. So if you’re as frustrated as I am, join with me, and maybe together we can finally find that missing link. ATTENTION I have finally discovered and tested for a branch under M222 and am positive for the SNP S588 and a new Branch S7049. There are 18 additional SNP's under S7049 most of which seem to be related to the McG surname. They can be tested 1 by 1 or as a group at yseq. They are FGC10132, FGC10133, FGC10134, FGC10135, FGC10136, FGC10137, FGC10138, FGC10139, FGC10140, FGC10141, FGC10142, FGC10143, FGC10144, FGC10145, FGC10146, FGC10147, FGC10148 and FGC10149 ATTENTION. FTDNA no longer test one snp alone. However the Big Y700 will include all of these. You must be neg- for S7050 to be pos+ for any of these.
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.
