• Abernethy/Abernathy DNA Project

  Objective: to establish relationships of families of Abernethy/Abernathy (and all variations) anywhere in the world using Y-DNA analysis in conjunction with traditional genealogy research methods.

• ABNEY Y-DNA Project (FamilyTreeDNA)

  This project hopes to eventually ferret out which Abney (and variant names) are related and how. This project emphasizes Y-Chromosome testing of males surnamed Abney at 37, 67 or 111 STR markers.

• ACREE Surname DNA Project

  DNA testing project to determine the extent to which males having the surname Acree (and its close variations) relate to one another.

• AINSWORTH DNA Project (FamilyTreeDNA)

• AINSWORTH-Y-DNA

  Y-DNA markers for AINSWORTH's and other names with near matches. i.e. BARLOW, MIDDLETON,HOLLINGSWORTH,CROOKS,WOODS, and others.

• ALDRICH Y-DNA Project

  A Y-DNA project for the Aldrich and any variant surname for the help in tracing the paper genealogy.

• ALLISON/ELLISON Family DNA Project

  ALLISON/ELLISON DNA PROJECT. It has been discovered that two groups of ALLISONS/ELLISONS with distinctly different DNA scores both have their origins in Lanarkshire, Scotland. One group of ALLISONS/ELLISONS with matching DNA scores traces its ancestry back to Long Island, New York in the 1600s and early 1700s and to Orange and Rockland counties, New York in the 1700s. Other participants have unique DNA scores and each man is waiting for another participant with a matching DNA score to join the DNA project. The webpage shows the paternal ancestry charts of the participants.

• ANDERSON-DNA Mailing List (Archived on RootsWeb)

• Andrews/Douglass DNA Project

  This ANDREWS DNA Project gives the results for Andrews62, searching for matching Y-dna.

• ANGLIN-ANGLEN Surname Y-DNA Project

• ARTERBURN DNA Project (FamilyTreeDNA)

  Background about genealogical research into origin of ARTERBURN family/surname, with results of current DNA testing to help find an Old World ancestor.

• AUTRY DNA Project (FamilyTreeDNA)

  The Autry DNA Project is Genetic Genealogy. The objectives include:1. Identify others who are related2. Prove or disprove theories regarding ancestors3. Break down brick walls in our research created when a 'paper trail' ends. It includes surnames: Autrey, Awtry, Awtrey, Autery, Aughtery, Aughtrey, Aughtry, D'Autry, D'Autrey, Daltry, Daughtry, D'Aughtry, MacAutrey, MacAutry, McAutrey, McAutry, Ortray, and Oughtrey, many other variations. (See website)The Autry DNA Project will begin with the 12-marker Y-chromosome test. 12 markers are sufficient to determine whether or not two people are genetically related.

• Auty DNA Project (FTDNA)

  Researching surnames: AUTY, AWTY, AUTEY, AWTEY, AUTIE and variants including OTTY, OTTEY, AUGHTY amongst others.

• Family Tree DNA - ARMSTRONG

  All ARMSTRONG male FTDNA testees are welcome to join the project, plus transfers from Sorenson-based labs. Only males have Y-chromosomes, so only male ARMSTRONGs can participate.

• Family Tree DNA - Y-DNA Surname Projects - Letter

• Family Tree DNA - Y-DNA Surname Projects - Letter A

• My FamilyTreeDNA Project Website Title (FamilyTreeDNA)

  The ALCORN Surname Project was established to utilize new scientific discoveries and methodologies to assist us in our Genealogy Research. This new field of utilizing testing for genealogy research is called Genetic Genealogy. Any variation of the Alcorn name is welcome: Allcorn, Alchorne, Alchehorne, Aldcorne, Auldcorne, etc. We all should be related somewhere in the past.
