Hello Carpenter Cousins!
Thanks to John Chandler, the Carpenter Cousins Y-DNA Project web page and its lineage page
has just been updated. See links below.
Since September of 2018 the following updates have been made.
a.. 2018 Dec 31 - Results this month for 156067, 233371. Groups affected: 3, 99.
b.. 2018 Nov 30 - Results this month for 263139, 599908. Groups affected: 5, 7.
c.. 2018 Oct 31 - Results this month for 867831, 873520. Groups affected: 3, 99.
d.. 2018 Sep 30 - Results this month for 74166, 862529, 866116, 867364. Groups affected:
2A, 3, 98.
Please be aware that some kits are pending review or are still in the process. One kit
YSEQ 16660 in Group 3 just made it to the update. But it is not listed on the Project News
because it was submitted after 1 Jan 2019.
We now have 431 FTDNA members and about 36 members from other DNA testing companies. This
is approximately 467 members in total who have submitted Y-DNA.
Based on a few suggestions our Carpenter Cousins project main web page was slightly
reorganized and a Carpenter Cousins Coat of Arms image was added. For those interested,
this image was made by Terry Lee Carpenter in his 1997 Carpenter Coat of Arms article. He
graciously has allowed us to colorize and use it several years ago.
The main genealogy data base now has over 201,000 Carpenter Cousins and related name.
The addition of a Carpenter One Name Study via the Guild of One Name Studies has
officially brought the Carpenter Project to an international level. This also allowed us
to add a new Carpenter-1-Name project for all types of DNA tests done at FTDNA. Sadly, at
FTDNA only for now.
A Zimmerman line is being processed and may add several thousand names. FYI – For those
unaware some Zimmermans that came to North America Anglicized their Germanic names into
Carpenter. Yes, the old German for carpenter is Zimmerman. They are our Carpenter Cousins
also!
If and when you talk or communicate to other Carpenter Cousins (Carpenter, Carpentier,
Charpentier, Zimmer, Zimmerman(n) and related spelled surnames) please tell them about the
Carpenter Cousins project. We are happy to answer genealogical and genetic queries.
Please remember that we have no paid advertising and you are our best sales people!
For the statisticians out there, the Carpenter Cousins Project has 9.16 Gigabytes of data
in 9,459 Files and 304 Folders. I will spare the rest of you the break down like I did
last year!
I wish you all well for 2019!
Why do we do this? For the Carpenter Cousins Family of course!
