Keith wrote John, Hi!, I am getting more confused than ever, please explain the Theory behind the Project, whose DNA are you comparing???, surely not Brian Boru, Count Brienne, or any other Ancient?. or is it to ascertain if all in any Family are truly Descendants of the same Parents, or Grand Parents.??. and also, do we Really have to know?. Keith W. BRYANT. ============================================================= Below is the Bryant's I would like to compare my Y-DNA to. Who would you like to see if you are related to!!??? Josiah Briant b.abt 1754 had five sons we have never been able to find John Bryant born late 1700's I am looking for descants of these two John Bryant to be tested for YDNA at Y67 Our family has two matching samples that tie us together to 1750 S.C. Get tested and see if you are part of this family.

My Y-DNA is tested for 67 markers. Those markers will only differ by one, two, or three if I am related to other Bryant. It is like a bar code that goes father to son does not change much for 10 or 15 generations. Do any of your Bryants have Y-DNA on file so we can compare to see if we related?
