The SURRENCY DNA Surname Project in conjunction with the
extensive genealogical research resources of the Huxford Genealogical
Society and the Robert B. Noles genealogical database will help determine
(and prove) if the SURRENCY families in the U.S. have a SURRENCY
ancestor (Surrency is a rare surname, probably with origins in France).
Surname genetic testing is the newest tool available to
genealogists. The genetic genealogy tests verify a man’s direct paternal
ancestry in a quick and easy way. These tests save time, prevent mistakes and
provide invaluable data for genealogists that can not be otherwise obtained.
The SURRENCY Surname DNA Project is open to all
persons with the SURRENCY surname (all spellings) world-wide. This project
is also open to anyone who believes they are (or could be) a direct male
descendant of one of the SURRENCY families, even if their surname is not
SURRENCY. This project is primarily
a Y-Chromosome study (direct paternal line); however, those (men or women)
interested the in mitochondrial DNA testing (direct maternal line) may join this
project as well.
Membership in the Huxford Genealogical Society
is not required
(but highly recommended)
to join the SURRENCY Surname Project.
Many surnames were changed during the 18th, 19th and
early 20th centuries due to adoptions, out-of-wedlock births, family
disagreements, etc. Under these circumstances, the Y-DNA for many
descendants may not match other descendants with the same surname. Therefore,
this project will assist SURRENCY
researchers on common or related families to work together to find their correct
common ancestors, when that hasn’t been possible via the examination of the
traditional paperwork trail.
You are hereby cordially invited to participate in
this historic project. SURRENCY family members requesting participation are requested to supply
Robert B. Noles with their known genealogy.
