Recruitment Update 2022

The last 12 months has been a great year for the project - the best yet in fact. We have had the most new recruits (63) and the highest number of Big Y tests (17).

Total membership stands at 273 members with 136 who have done the Y-DNA test. Of these, 50 participants have done the Big Y test.

The Big Y test is proving particularly useful for the Finding Grace project and is helping us to define the more downstream branches (i.e. nearer to the present day) among Group 3a members.

If you wish to contribute to the Finding Grace project, please make a donation to the General Fund. All donations are welcome (no matter how small) and you can do so by clicking on the blue Donate button below.
Thank you!
