Dear All: The Scottish Clans DNA Project was established in Oct 2001 and published its first Report on March 1 2002. That report was published in a mailing list ( Scot-DNA@rootsweb.com) created at www.rootsweb.com...... ( interesting to read from the standpoint of looking back on history). The Scottish Clan project was started to look at the potential interrelationships of the Scottish Clans. However, it is also obvious that these same results will show relationships with any other family or group that could have a common connection by migration due to wars, economic movements, etc The current project goals have broadened a bit to include anyone that has some indication of a Scottish, Irish, British and even Scandinavians background. The current study that I'm completing that has looked at other nationalities is very interesting. The sample base is still small ( 2200 results).... but is on cusp of being statistically significant. The Scot-DNA List at Rootsweb.com is the original list that supports the Scottish Clans (Scot DNA) Project and all those project managers and participants and interested parties that want to contribute and receive information regarding the Original project for all Scottish peoples. Additionally, there are 7 websites either connected directly or indirectly with this project: <http://www.myfamily.com> A: www.myfamily.com requires a login ... information is not generally public for protection against spiders etc-- free ... contains recent news from members, posting, family trees, and a downloadable copy of the full database. That database includes FTDNA results, other DNA projects that we co-operate with in exchanging results and people that have been tested at other projects but still want their results compared to the FTDNA results ( currently 525 results). BTW: The Scottish Clans project at Family Tree is now in the top ten of all the Family Tree projects !!! B: <http://www.brigadoon.net/scottishdna.htm> www.brigadoon.net/scottishdna.htm -- no login....information is public, scope of project and updates. <http://www.scottishdna.net/index.htm> C: http://www.scottishdna.net/index.htm --no login... information is public, DNA status and tools I also add references here to other general information on other projects', DNA analysis tools, and other web sites that provide some really good background on DNA testing etc. D: <http://www.familytreedna.com/public/Scottishdna/index.aspx> http://www.familytreedna.com/public/Scottishdna/index.aspx .. no login. This contains public information on results of DNA tests This web site publishes all DNA test results where the person has been tested at FamilyTree DNA and authorized the public display of those records in our Scottish Clans DNA project. BTW: The Scottish Clans project at Family Tree is now in the top ten of all the Family Tree projects !!!
