Hello List,
Has any Carswell taken part in a genealogical DNA TEST ? I am interested in
any findings as I am considering taking a test. My ancestors are from Neilston Parish
Renfrewshire.
Regards,
John Carswell NSW Australia.
PS.I understand the benifits of taking a test are :-
Determine if two people are related
Find out if others with your surname are related
Determine if two people descended from the same ancestor
Provide an approximate time frame for the common ancestor
Confirm your family tree
Find others to whom you are related
Determine a possible point of origin for your surname
Prove or disprove a research theory
Determine if other surnames are variants of your surname
For surnames with multiple points of origin, determine the possible points
Provide clues or solve brick walls
Identify a location for further research
Verify ancestors migration
Verify Native American or Cohanim ancestry
Provide clues about ethnic origin . JC
