The following Surnames are currently included in this project:
Nanney, Yance, Yancey, Yancie, Yancy, Yanney, Yonce
The yancey DNA Project is open to all yancey families, of all spelling variations, and from all locations.
(If your surname is not included please contact the Project Administrator.)
Please take a moment to consider a contribution so that others who can not afford the DNA test can participate. Even if it is just $1.00, every little bit helps. Make sure that you list the Yancey Family DNA Project as to where you want your contribution to go. Thank you so much for your consideration.
Surname DNA testing is the newest tool available to genealogists. These tests help genealogists verify their paternal ancestry (father's father) in a quick and easy way. It saves time, prevents mistakes, and provides invaluable data that can be obtained in no other way.
This Family Project is started to:
- Confirm whether or not the Yancey and Nanney families are connected, as family traditions on both sides seem to imply, as well as to determine exactly through whom these two families are connected, if such a connection exists. Therefore, family members from both families are encouraged to participate in this project
- Help researchers on common or related families work together to find their common heritage (See the Patriarch Page)
- Identify the DNA of the ancestor families and compile them and their lost branches into distinct genetic lineages through DNA matches
