Patriarch Page
(Note: browser variations may affect this display. If you aren't satisfied with this display, please try another browser)

 

On this page, we will list all family lines by Earliest Known Ancestor ("EKA"), along with contact information for the submitter or Line Leader.  We hope eventually that all families will be listed on this page and that at least one descendant from each line will participate in the DNA project.  Note, however, that participation in the DNA project is not required for a listing on this page.  Family lines which do have a participant in the DNA project are indicated by a L-# inserted after the ancestor through whom they descend.

If you desire your earliest known ancestor to be listed on this page, please follow the link below.  Please read and follow the instructions at the beginning of the linked page.  Especially note that this is not the place for a lot of detail, particularly about spouses, or a lot of generations should you choose the descendants option in lieu of the pedigree option.  We are only trying to provide enough information to identify your line.  If you wish, we can link your EKA to another website for additional information.  Please do not post any information about living individuals.

If you dispute the accuracy of a listed family line, please try to resolve your differences with the Line Leader.  If differences still remain, your Co-Administrators will determine, on a case by case basis, how these differences should be presented.
 
Listed below are the Patriarchs who have been submitted, organized first by the spelling variation of the surname and then alphabetically by the first name of the Patriarch.  Patriarchs whose names appear in olive are linked to websites which provide more information.
