Rickard (Y-DNA)
Contents
Status summary
Completed as of October 8, 2020:
- Recruiting direct male-line Rickardt descendants for further SNP testing - anyone interested in submitting their DNA for testing should contact Raymond Wing (email: wing.genealogist AT gmail DOT com)
Still to do as of October 1, 2020
- NGS/WGS test multiple descendants of Rickard family to firmly place family clade as well as test descendants to discover any subclades unique to descendants lines

Previous Y-DNA testing
Further needed testing
More Y-DNA descendants of Richard Wright are needed to do Next Generation Sequence/Whole Genome Sequence (NGS/WGS) DNA testing to further refine the haplogroup for the family as well as try to further subdivide the descendants.
