A regional project focusing on families from the Dominican Republic. This includes the three major types of tests that FamilyTreeDNA offers: Autosomal (like Ancestry and 23andme), Y-chromosome (direct paternal line), and Mitochondrial DNA (direct maternal line). We have identified hundreds of Dominican lineages and are working to represent them on the paternal and maternal trees of Mankind through DNA testing and finding connections within the country and in ancestral lands.
A haplogroup project focusing on the E-CTS9106 lineage. The SNP mutation CTS9106 is a discoverable SNP from a FamilyFinder test and originated in the Congo before spreading through the continent east and west with some branches winding up in the Americas through the slave trade, East African countries like Uganda and Tanzania, and even up into the Middle East and into Europe.
A haplogroup project focusing on the R-CTS5330 lineage. The SNP mutation CTS5330 is a discoverable SNP from a FamilyFinder test and currently only found in Puerto Rico currently attributed to the Martín de Quiñones family predominantly from the Southwest of the island.
