  Tracing the DNA of the FLOODS accross the world to establish their roots in Ireland or whereever.

• FLOWERS Surname Y-DNA Project (FamilyTreeDNA)

  Flowers/Flower and variant spellings.

• FLOYD / FLOID / FLOOD DNA Reconstruction Project

• Foad Surname DNA Project (FamilyTreeDNA)

  A project using standard genealogical DNA tests to connect scattered FOAD family lines and to explore their ancient origins.

• FOLGER Y-DNA Project (FamilyTreeDNA)

  This project entails Y-DNA testing for males with the Folger surname in order to establish genetic connections and expand genealogical research through genetics.

• FORTINEUX Surname DNA Study

  The FORTINEUX family lived in the Palatinate in the 17th century and descendants include persons living in North America today with the surnames FORTNEY, FORTNA, FURTNEY, and FORDNEY. In 1981, descendants of the FORTNEY and FORTNA families made contact and discovered their common heritage as descendants of Jonas Fortney (b Lambrecht, Germany, d 1702/09 probably Otterberg, Germany) and Sara Menton (d 1715 Otterberg, Germany). This initial contact between the families, the first in about 250 years, led to many international family reunions and the 1989 publication of The Fortineux-Fortinet Family (Fortney, Fortna, Fordney, Furtney) in America.Unfortunately, not all families with the FORTNEY, FORTNA, FURTNEY, FORDNEY or similar names can be traced to Jonas FORTINEUX. The goal of the FORTINEUX Surname DNA Study is two-fold: 1. To discover the ancestors of Jonas FORTINEUX, including their geographic movements 2. To help people who believe they may be descended from Jonas FORTINEUX to strengthen weak genealogy paper trails.

• FOSTER Surname DNA Project

  FOSTER / FORSTER / FORESTER / FORRESTER families wordwide using Y-chromosome DNA.

• FRAME DNA and One-Name Study

  The FRAME DNA PROJECT was established to: 1. Collect, document and extend FRAME pedigrees to find common ancestors. (See Patriarch page) 2. Help researchers on common or related families work together to find their common heritage (See the Results and Patriarch pages) 3. Identify the DNA of the ancestor families and compile them and their lost branches into distinct genetic lineages through DNA matches (See Results page) 4. Identify which variant surnames relate to a common Frame ancestor. Males of the FRAME surname or variant surnames from all around the world are welcome to join.

• Franklin Families Genetics Project - A Franklin Families Y-Chromosome Project

  This project hopes to eventually ferret out which Franklins/Franklyns are related to Benjamin Franklin, statesman, as well as to each other. Thus far over 150 Franklin men have been tested and they make up over 15 distinct family groups. I strongly recommend the 25-marker or 37-marker test for Franklins, because I have found a case for which 12 markers are not sufficient to distinguish two different Franklin families from each other and from other surnames.

• FULBRIGHT

  Using science to solve the mysteries of the Fulbright-Fullbright family. Our goal is to link various family lines through science - to find the links for which no other evidence exists.
