'D' Surname DNA Studies and Projects

• DAGLISH DNA Project 
  The main known branches of the Daglish family originate from County Durham and Northumberland in the United Kingdom, and most living Daglishes can trace their ancestors back to these English counties. Through the DNA project we hope to look at these different branches and compare for common ancestors.The surname directories show Daglish as a variant of Scottish names Dalglish or Dalgliesh - but so far it has been difficult to confirm this through standard family history research; we hope the DNA project might help to provide the answer.The DNA test works on the Y-chromosome which is passed down through the male line (in much the same way as surnames). The Y-chromosone is likely to remain unchanged for many generations, but occasionally the code will 'mutate' creating small differences, and this is also useful for family history. For testing we therefore need living male members of the Daglish family. There is another DNA test which follows the maternal line - but this is not directly relevant for our study.

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.

  Surnames: MacALPIN, MacKILLIP, MacKILLOP, MacPHILLIP, McALPIN, McALPINE, McAULIFFE, McCALEB, McCALIP, McCLEAF , McGILLIVRAY, McKILLIP, McKILLOP. The McCaleb/McCalip DNA project will allow various families to determine which branch of this group that they belong to and how far back they have a common ancestor. After its completion it will act as a springboard for further research. The earliest McCaleb/McCalip imigration to America was in about the 1740’s from Scotland via Ireland to the Carolinas. It is said that three brothers with their families came to America at that time. Over time one group moved to Florida and Mississippi. Another group migrated West.. A third group moved to Maryland. Later in history a second group arrived from Ireland and settled in the northern states. It is these branches that we will study to find a common ancestor for all branches on the family tree. Solid evidence exits in deeds and other documents that show changes in spelling in early American history between the two variants of this surname. There may be other similar spellings. All groups have either a Scottish or Scotch-Irish background. Scottish groups are those that left Scotland and immediately sailed from Ireland to America. Scotch-Irish groups are those who lived for a period of time in Ireland before migrating on to America. This study is open to all that share these surnames or similar spellings in the USA, Canada, Ireland, Scotland, Great Britain or other areas they may have migrated. We encourage your participation. The site administrator has studied this surname for the past 15 years and this DNA study will tie up loose ends of his research that has already been completed. He has traveled extensively from the East to West coasts visiting homesteads, plantations, farms-ranches, battlefield sites, and mills of early family members. He has discovered a rich and colorful family history. He plans to finish off this study with a published family history book that will be available to all participants. In order to complete these plans he needs your help and participation. If you share this surname or similar.

  Our project goal - To establish a growing database of WELLS DNA supported lineages to aid in genealogical research for family generations to come. It is our hope that many WELLS families will participate in this project allowing us to develop a scientifically proven DNA database of WELLS lineages and specific family groups. Please, contact as many WELLS researchers and male WELLS family members as you can to encourage their participation in our Project to help to ensure its success.

• WOODRUFF DNA Project 
  The purpose of this project is to use the new tools of genetic genealogy and DNA testing to enhance and augment traditional genealogical research into Woodruff family lineages from the U.S., U.K., Canada, Australia, and anywhere else in the world Woodruff families are found.
• WORDEN DNA Project 
  A DNA project for surnames: WORDEN, WARDEN, WERDEN, WORDING, WOODEN, WOODIN, WOODING, etc. Worldwide participation is encouraged.

• WRIGHT DNA Project 
  The WRIGHT Surname Project uses DNA testing to determine relationships and connect the many descendants of our WRIGHT forefathers. The goals of the project are: to match individuals and families who share a common male WRIGHT ancestor, to chart the Y-Chromosome of each DNA sample submitted, to eliminate and/or confirm the relationships between WRIGHT families throughout the world, and to strengthen weak paper trails.
• WYATT, WIATT and WIET Surname Y Chromosome DNA Study 
  A Y chromosome DNA study of the WYATT, WIATT and WYET families worldwide with ancestry from the United Kingdom and Eire.
