Hi:
Here is an interesting project for Hispanics who think that they have male
connections to Mexico. Most DNA projects are for single surnames but since the
Hispanic naming technique is different from the Anglo? method - males with
different last names may find they have the same Y chromosome of males of other
names. Thus, they are starting an all-over project for males with Mexican
background - a clever idea.
Share this with your Hispanic friends - they might want to join.
Regards
Nan

RE: [DNA] Genealogy of Mexico Surname Project
The Genealogy of Mexico Surname Project is now online.
This project is open to those who's Y-dna (father's father's father's...)
line extends to Mexico. It is understood that it was the custom in Latin America to pass
along a surname that may have come from the maternal side. With this in mind, with DNA it
is possible to see relationships between people of different surnames which would extend
back to rather small gene pool some 500 years ago just after the Conquest. These ancestors
having the most descendants in Mexico.
