That's a very big target to hit for someone who is thinking about testing. At one time, many of the Jordans believed they derived from one medieval Norman knight who fought in the crusades, and that there was one prime Jordan crest, but DNA testing has proven that not to be the case. I still believe the name originates with either the crusades or a religious (baptisim) event concerning the Jordan River. If you know a living male with the Jordan name, and are untested, it is almost imperative to get the DNA test done. It will most likely help you and perhaps hundreds of people in the future. We do have this opportunity now, where we were guessing a lot in the past. Sure has cut down some of the arguments we've seen over the past 6-7 years.
