Status summary

Completed as of April 15, 2021:

  • Recruiting direct male-line descendants of Michael Ford for SNP testing - anyone interested in submitting their DNA for testing should contact MayflowerDNA1620@gmail.com

Still to do as of April 15, 2021

  • NGS/WGS test multiple descendants of William Ford (and preferably of his son Michael) to place the family clade as well as test descendants to discover any subclades unique to descendants lines

DNA results TBD

Previous Y-DNA testing

The Ford DNA Project currently does not list anyone claiming William Ford (father of Michael) as their Most Distant Known Paternal Ancestor (MDKPA).

Further needed testing

We need additional direct male-line descendants of William Ford (and preferably of his son Michael) to WGS/NGS test to discover the haplogroup/clade for the family.
