Morrison DNA Project |
|
Welcome |
|
Clan Morrison Society of North America (CMSNA) is sponsoring a DNA project to allow interested parties to use Y-chromosome DNA testing as a tool in their family history research. Participation in the project is welcome from anyone of Morrison or associated surname descent. Membership in CMSNA is not required for participation in this project. Surnames commonly associated with Morrison include Gilmore, Judge and Brieve, however spelled. Since Y-chromosomes are only passed from father to son, the donor of the DNA for testing must be a male of Morrison descent in the paternal line. This means that the donor’s father, his father’s father, etc., as far as the line can be traced were named Morrison (or other associated surname). Females and males of Morrison descent through maternal lines may participate in the project by having a male relative of Morrison descent in the strictly paternal line supply the DNA sample for testing. Further information on DNA testing can be found at http://www.familytreedna.com To participate in this project, please follow the link: “How to Participate” Please also see webpage on the Sponsors program that we have started to support and fund testing of key Morrisons who would not otherwise be tested.
