I would urge all Bakers to get the Baker DNA Test. The cost is about $100 through the
Group. It's simple to do. They mail you a test kit. You swab the inside of your cheek,
put the swab inside the bottle, mail it back, and wait for the results. A male named
Baker must take the test.
A group of 300 Baker researchers are trying to find who connects to whom, thus allowing
the sharing of family information. We welcome any Baker's world wide to join us.
Please
join us at the Baker Ancestors group.
Surnames in Project: Baker, Bakker, Beaker, Boecher, Le Baker
Requirements:
Since a Surname Project in essence traces members of a family that share a common
surname, and females (a) don't carry their father's Y-DNA, and (b) acquire a new
surname by the way of marriage, in order to be relevant to the Surname Project, the
tested individual must be a male that wants to check his paternal line (father's
father's father's...). The test to be ordered is either the Y-DNA12, Y-DNA25 or
Y-DNA37, and females should look for a brother or cousin with that surname to be
tested. Females can also order a test for themselves, which will be the mtDNA or
mtDNAPlus, but the results of this test cannot be tied to the Surname Project.

Note: I have no financial interest in this project. I'm just a Baker who has taken
the
test and would like to see Bakers from all lines take it. My Test proved a connection
that I had been trying to prove with documents for over 40 years.
