My ancestors came from Ayrshire Scotland to County Derry in Ireland to Canada. A few other Dales from Canada, England and New Zealand who also trace their ancestry back to Derry and to Antrim tested and we were shown to have a likely common ancestor 6 to 8 generations back. We also matched with an American Dale whose ancestry traces back through South Carolina, to Maryland, to Derry and to Antrim. There is no match to the many English Dales who have had their Y-DNA testing done. Do you know where your ancestors came from? England, Ireland or Scotland? Scandinavia? Germany? Holland?

I had my son tested. As you all know, more results that way. I was amazed when the results came back as some from New Zealand. Had no clue. I am having a hard time tracing my Dale's. My paternal Grandfather was Jeptha Dale, born 1854 in Shelbyville, Kentucky. His first wife was Mary Frillingsdorff. (Kate) His second wife was my Grandmother Modesta Berkeley. His mother and father were William Dale and Margaret Underwood. He also had a brother. Do not know his name. I am really intrigued with the New Zealand idea. Any help would be appreciated.
