    1. [MEREDITH-L] DNA Testing
    2. All, I have just started a surname project at familytreedna.com for the Meredith surname and all it's various spellings. The project is to encourage as many Meredith males as possible to have their Y DNA tested. Females do not carry Y DNA but may participate if they have a father, brother, uncle or male cousin with the Meredith surname that can be tested. In Brief, Y DNA is passed unchanged from father to son to grandson to great grandson, etc. Testing a group of Merediths will identify those who share or do not share a common paternal ancester. There is much information on DNA testing available at: http://www.familytreedna.com/ Those who order a test thru the surname project will receive a group rate of $99.00 for a 12 marker test which seems to be adequate to identify a match. The 12 marker test can be upgraded to 24 or 37 markers later if a match occurs and you desire to try to improve the estimate of how many generations in the past a common ancestory occurred. A group rate is also offered for the 24 & 37 marker tests. To order a test & join the project go to: http://www.familytreedna.com/surname_join.asp?code=M62154&special=True I have already had my DNA tested. I had 24 markers tested & paid full price. (ouch) After all that I failed to match 6 other Merediths who have been tested. Hoping to find a match someday to help climb my "Brick Wall". Ronald Merideth

Jerry ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~merideth/ http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~merideth/cowmarshbaptistchurch.htm CHURCH located in Kent County Delaware The Cow Marsh Baptist Church was built on a corner of the Meredith homestead. The land was first leased to the church for a token amount by Job Meredith d.1793. Later the land was sold, also for a token amount, to the church by his son Job Meredith jr. Following is a list of church members copied from the original records by Miss Bertha Frazier in 1947. The copy I have is typed but has been photocopied so many times that it is hard to read. Names which I am unsure of are in brackets. I don't know what happened to the original church records, but would certainly like to.

    2. Happy Saturday evening Jack.Meredith@mba.wfu.edu Thanks for this information...Truth be told I would like this DNA Lab etc info because I found my half brother (I think) He is 93 years old and I would like to determine if we have the same father...This DNA would work for us because we are both males *..(If true! would also have the same surname as my possible father: as my half brother and his father.) * both have a chance to have the same father.. I realize that my chances of matching your MEREDITH or Ron's MERIDETH link is very very unlikely. because the link(s) between Ron's MERIDETH direct link and my link is a sister of Ron's Grandfather. Hope you are looking for the return of warmer weather and no more ice or snow until next year. Good cheer to you, Jerry +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Jack.Meredith@mba.wfu.edu writes answer: Jerry-- Ron Merideth is considering starting a Meredith/Merideth DNA project so we can get discounted DNA testing, at about $150 for 25 markers instead of $250, at FamilyTreeDNA. We need a lot more merediths tested to figure out what the strands are, since they are a lot more complex than we thought. So far, I don't match with any other Merediths, and Ron doesn't either, nor do we match each other. Very confusing.

    1. [MEREDITH-L] Welsh Surnames in America ++++ Other information offered
    2. noreply@familyhistorynetwork.net Welsh Surnames in America By Nathan W. Murphy, AG Many Americans are not aware of the fact that they have Welsh blood running through their veins. Citizens from Wales have been migrating to America, along with their English neighbors, for nearly four centuries. The uniqueness of Welsh surnames may reveal whether or not you descend from this fascinating people. Wales, situated just west of England on the Irish Channel, has housed a culture and people distinct from the rest of Britain for more than 1,500 years. The Welsh descend from the pre-Roman inhabitants of Great Britain, the Celts, who were driven into the mountainous Welsh countryside by the Anglo-Saxons during the middle of the first millennium A. D. Remnants of this ancient society can still be found in Wales today. For example, many people still speak the Welsh language. Since the Act of Union with England in 1536, the Welsh language has gradually declined in usage, but the 1981 census revealed that approximately 500,000 people still spoke Welsh1. The Welsh are also widely known for their love of music. Music is an inextricably important part of Welsh life. As a matter of fact, the world-renowned Mormon Tabernacle Choir began as a group of Welsh converts who immigrated to Utah as members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Welsh men and women immigrated, together with the English, as some of the earliest colonists to America. The southern region of Wales, located just across the Bristol Channel from what was then England’s second largest port city, Bristol, supplied thousands of emigrants during the 17th and 18th centuries. David Peate, in his chapter entitled “Emigration,” in Welsh Family History: A Guide to Research, states that the first Welsh-financed colonization attempt in North America occurred in Cambriol, Newfoundland, in 1617. Peate also identifies the influx of immigrants to America beginning in the late 1600s, as a consequence of Welsh nonconformists wishing to escape the persecution imposed on them by the state church. Groups such as the Quakers and Baptists emigrated in congregations. The Welsh established a small colony known as Patagonia in Argentina in the latter half of the 19th century2. As in Scandinavia, Welsh surnames were not inherited through heredity amongst the masses until the 19th century. The most prevalent Welsh surnames derive from the former patronymic system. Sons took a surname based on the given name of their father, which changed each succeeding generation. For example, Lewis, the son of Evan Jones, would not inherit his father’s surname “Jones,” but rather “Evans.” The terminal “s” in “Evans” served as the truncated form of the English “son,” in other words “Evan’s son.” At other times, the son of Evan Jones might receive the surname “Bevan,” a contraction of the Welsh “ap [or ab] Evan,” which translates “the son of Evan.” According to John Rowlands, in Second Stages in Researching Welsh Ancestry, the ten most common surnames in Wales in 1856 were Jones, Williams, Davies, Thomas, Evans, Roberts, Hughes, Lewis, Morgan and Griffiths. Other ubiquitous surnames included Owen, Pritchard and Parry. The popular given names from which these surnames derived, such as Jones from John, and Davies from David, clearly depict the patronymic practice. Rowlands also cites results from a study on surnames concerning an area in Caernarfonshire, Wales, showing that 90 percent of the surnames there sprung from the top ten3. When the Welsh immigrated to America, the patronymic pattern stopped, and their surnames became hereditary. The historical practice of using patronymic surnames in Wales aids Americans in discovering their Welsh ancestry. If your American ancestors had one of these common surnames, chances are good that you descend from the rich culture of the Welsh. 1. Crystal, David, The Cambridge Encyclopedia of Language, 2nd ed.

Re: Junior Meredith in Illinois Posted by: Teresia Foreman (ID *****4805)Date: July 20, 2002 at 22:55:04 In Reply to: Re: Junior Meredith in Illinois by Jan McGraw of 2032 where in Texas was your Mary Jane, and Junior Meredith from? My Junior Meredith, and my great great grandmother Elizabeth Meredith lived in East Texas, mostly Cherokee County, from 1850 until there deaths. There mother Winniford Meredith came here with them in 1850 without there father and hadn't been able to find out her maiden name or his name. But now that the Gen. Web is going strong I was able to find where she married a David Meredith in Illinois. Her daughter Elizabeth named her own daughter after Winniford, She named her Winniford Martin Gentry. From that I knew that Winnifords Maiden must have been Martin. So I looked in all of the Illinois marriage records from the time that she should have been married and found Winniford Martin and David Meredith and there marriage date. However I haven't found where he must havee died either there or on the way here. But with a lot of prayers and work I WILL. Notify Administrator about this message?

I am SO happy to hear from YOU!! I have been working off and on the our Meredith family for years and years and have not had a single person to work with. Bless YOU! Our Merediths, Winnifred,(don't know about Mary Jane's Dad) Mary Jane,b.Nov 1828, Junior, Elizabeth, Noah and Martha came to TX from Illinois, floating down the Mississippi on a flat boat in 1839. Winny applied for Headrights in Aug, 1839 in TX. In order to do that she had to be HEAD of HOUSEHOLD, so she was a widow. I am thrilled that you figured out that Winnifred was Winnifred Martin using her granddaughter's name! That was SMART!! Winnny left a Will (1874) in Cherokee Co.TX., which names her children. Where are you? Do you live in Texas? I was born there, but now live in the state of WA. Please let me hear from you. Jan Notify Administrator about this message?
