Please let us know when you have a new email address.

If your test results are posted to the results page, please be sure we have info on your oldest PARKER for the ancestors page. This helps others who have no male PARKER for testing, to find new linkages.

If you have something you want to highlight, such as genealogy breakthrough from your DNA test, or a web site that would be useful to others, send me an email.

Special Offers
  Descendents of Timothy PARKER, P15, want to find more of their family. They will pay for a DNA test for a documented descendent of Timothy.  Click on the name   Timothy PARKER    for more details and contact information.


Descendents of Thomas PARKER b 1814 New Jersey, will pay for a Y-DNA test of a PARKER surnamed male who descends from Samuel PARKER, b 1785 New Jersey, and his wife Barsheba CHEESMAN. Contact the project coordinator for more information.

If you have ancestors with the surname PARKER, we invite you to join us in this project. DNA analysis for genealogy research may help us discover information about our families that would not be possible using traditional genealogy research methods.

Paper records may be lost, but our DNA is a direct link to our ancestors who lived hundreds of years ago. We do not expect to find our ancestors who lived during biblical times, but going back to the period when surnames were adopted is a possibility.

262 PARKER Y-DNA tests have identified 112 different PARKER lines. We are a very diverse group genetically, and our surname was adopted many times by people in different locations.

Our project is seeking to:

1. Prove or disprove suspected relationships to other PARKER lines

2. Find new clues for those who have reached a dead end in their genealogy research.

3. Verify that your genealogy record is correct.

4. Develop a database that combines DNA results with traditional genealogy research.

In order to participate in this Y-chromosome DNA project, you must be a male with the PARKER surname, or have a male PARKER from your line who will submit a DNA sample.

If you would like to participate, or want more information, please contact the, Group coordinator.

Greg Parker, project co-administrator, also has a web page for PARKER DNA and genealogy, please visit his PARKER site.
