I got my partial results today (12 marker) with the rest de in march 9th I think. No great surprises from what I can see. My patriarch line is F3. My twelve markers match perfectly with both the other lines posted - another Bryan Fannin and a Chestnut Creek John Fanning. It also said that I had a perfect match with Albert Vernon Fannon, with a 70.69% chance of common ancestor at 8 generations.... Bryan of Amelia county is my 8th generation ancestor.   The results for 13-25 are still pending, but it did give me 26-37. They also matched with Patriarch F-1 Bryan except two:
#33 570 - 16
#35 CDY b  - 40

I do not know the significance of this. but maybe someone will explain.

This may help a little bit:

The page needs to be reworked to give more information, but it should still provide a decent overview.

If you haven't already done so, I recommend posting your family tree on our pedigree forum.  All pedigrees posted on that page will be transfered to the official surname project website, so that other researchers may find you and contact you:
http://www.wfnforum.net/index.php?topic=6067.0

If you want to see the pedigrees and results of other researchers, please go to the project website.  You may find other researchers already working on the same family lines that you are:
