The American CARRICOs have still not had a Y-DNA match "across the pond," so we
still do not know the origin of Peter CARRICO, 1674 immigrant to Maryland:

With regard to autosomal-DNA testing, unless you have triangulated on every segment and
found its origin, you cannot be certain where each percentage of your ethnicity came from.
I recommend joining the AUTOSOMAL-DNA mailing list for help in doing this:

And I recommend joining the Carrico Family Project being run by Linda Boorom:

While I'm running the Y-DNA project, Linda is running the autosomal-DNA project.
There are branches of the family that have long believed the American CARRICOs are French
or Portuguese or Italian - all without concrete evidence. The bottom line still remains:
origin unknown.
