This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Atwell, Attwell Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/4YB.2ACEB/420 Message Board Post: Hi all, I've had myself tested and see that there is no immediate match. The results can be viewed at www.ysearch.org/ and then plug in the Atwell surname. The results "predict" that I am in the K haplogroup, which is a bit unusual. My line goes back to about 1830-present day southwestern Virginia and southern West Virginia. Prior to that they are found in 1800-1820 Person County, North Carolina. And earlier still they are in Prince Edward and Amelia Counties, Virginia, in the last half of the 1700s. Would sure like to find a match with somebody out there... Ray
