 ===Methodology===
-The focus of this project is on using advanced Y-DNA and mtDNA tests to document the patrilineal (all male line) and matrilineal (all female line) lineages from the ''Mayflower'' passengers, their spouses, and the spouses of their children and grandchildren. <!--For each paternal lineage, we plan the ''Y Elite'' test from [http://www.fullgenomes.com Full Genomes Corporation] for at least one direct patrilineal descendant, followed by tests of individual genetic markers (identified from NGS/WGS testing) in additional participants through [http://www.yseq.net YSEQ].--> For each surviving lineage this will provide the most comprehensive Y-DNA and mtDNA profile possible with current commercial genetic testing technology. When available, we will make use of prior genetic genealogy research related to these lineages (e.g. Y-STR test results) to provide supporting evidence and to guide project recruitment. Ideally, the initial goal is to obtain Y-DNA results from two different sons of the immigrant and mtDNA results from two different daughters of the immigrant. Once that is accomplished, the next goal would be to obtain multiple NGS/WGS Y-DNA results to define branches within the Y-DNA family. These branches are the key for folks who cannot document their "paper trail" back to the immigrant ancestor, but whose Y-DNA results indicate they '''must''' descend from a ''Mayflower'' passenger. It is hoped the [https://themayflowersociety.org General Society of Mayflower Descendants] will allow this type of Y-DNA SNP information to become acceptable proof of descent.

Another step would be to work with DNA testing companies to make individual Y-DNA SNPs delineating Mayflower lines available for a la carte and package testing.
 Through this approach, we aim to achieve the following objectives:
