Lassiter Family Pedigrees

[lassiterAdmin]

Welcome to the Pedigree Forum for the Lassiter Surname Project!
Project’s Website: http://www.worldfamilies.net/surnames/Lassiter/
[Navigate to all pages of the project's website using the links across the top of the page.]

Posting your pedigree allows it to be seen by interested researchers who may contact you to share information.  It’s a great way to further your research.

Each project website includes both a FAMILY PEDIGREE FORUM and a PROJECT’S PATRIARCH PAGE. 
Please Note:  Our Pedigree Policy was revised as of November 15, 2012, for WorldFamilies-administered Project Patriarch Pages

The FAMILY PEDIGREE FORUM (below) is open to anyone who has a family pedigree in this surname.
•   Researchers who are not a member of the Surname DNA Project, but wish to share a family pedigree.
•   Project Members who wish to post a more extended version of their pedigree to supplement the “stripped down” pedigree posted on the Patriarch Page. 

The PROJECT’S PATRIARCH PAGE http://www.worldfamilies.net/surnames/Lassiter/pats includes only the pedigrees of Project Members. 
•   The pedigree must be for a Member of the Surname DNA Project at Family Tree DNA.
•   You must provide a kit number to be posted with the pedigree.
•   You must submit your pedigree by email to carrie@worldfamilies.net
•   The email should include the following:
# Name of project
# Kit Number
# Name of person posting pedigree
# Email address to be posted with pedigree
# Name, birthdate, birthplace, spouse of Earliest Known Ancestor
# List each succeeding generation below, using only those four items of information (or substitute another item of information if missing an item)
