This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: sweet, swett, switt, sweat Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/HBRBAIB/1245 Message Board Post: With the latest addition to the results in the Sweet DNA study, it is now possible to make a tentative identification of the ancestral haplotype (Y DNA pattern) of one group of Sweets. Take a look at the web page to see the results and conclusions so far: http://www.failrleafarm.harvard.ma.us/dnasweet.htm We still need more participants (must be male Sweets in order to have the Sweet Y chromosome). Other, similar surnames are also included, such as Swett, Switt, Sweat, and so on. Even if you don't have the necessary Y chromosome for testing, you can participate indirectly by recruiting someone who does. John Chandler
