The pedigree is an essential part of genetic genealogy. We invite all researchers of the Worden and similar surnames to submit their proven pedigrees for posting on the Patriarch page.  Please follow the format of the pedigrees posted on this page. Be sure to include a Line Leader (Researcher) as your first entry.

Note that the pedigrees posted to this site are not guaranteed for accuracy by the Worden DNA Project, but are the submissions of the individual DNA participants. Any data provided should always be independently proven. Because the Worden Family Association has proven some part of these lineages, we have arbitrarily chosen to replace the first three generations (Peter I, Peter II, Dr. Samuel) with the accepted (proven) data as provided by the WFA.

The pedigrees that follow are organized by MRCA (most recent common ancestor) and are based upon the traditional genealogy, or paper trail, in an effort to make comparisons easier. Your comments are always welcome.
