A COOPER Surname DNA Project exists for anyone looking for a way to find related COOPER-lines. It does require a male with the COOPER surname. The purpose is to find people with the COOPER surname who share a common ancestor, as well as identifying the different lines and possible points of origin. I have personally used DNA analysis to substantiate research, further my research efforts, give me direction in my research, and to prove or disprove research I have completed. I have found it to be an invaluable research tool. By no means does it supplant traditional genealogy research, but it does supplement and give an added tool in genealogical research. If any one on is interested in becoming a part of this Project, please contact me at the following email address. H. Ben Cooper Group Administrator Cooper Surname DNA Project [email protected]
