There are several Randall lines that go back a long way in North America and they are well documented. You may find that you are in one of these if you take a Y-dna test (different from autosomal) that will trace your paternal ancestry back at least 5 generations. There are several services that do this. I used the y-37 test at familytreedna.com and expanded and verified my Randall line. I highly recommend it - we may be related. Robert Randall

P.S. To find reliable sources for your profiles, go to the Family Tree & Tools tab; select Genealogy Research and scroll down near the bottom of that list and select Research with RootsSearch. There are over 20 websites to access from there.
One of our mentors created a tutorial for the GEDCOMpare process that others found very helpful. I hope that you will too.

Thank you for adding your DNA Test to your profile on WikiTree. Getting Started with DNA will tell you more about how DNA kits are used on WikiTree.
DNA at WikiTree provides a visual way for you to find others who have tested and have the potential of having common ancestors. It normally takes 24 hours from adding a test, or adding a new ancestor, or ancestor’s descendant, for WikiTree to display your name and test results on your ancestors and their descendants’ profiles for potential cousins to compare results with.
Have fun! Mindy ~ WikiTree Volunteer Greeter
PS There is a tutorial for the GEDCOMpare process that others found very helpful. I hope that you will too.
I am pleased to confirm and welcome you to the WikiTree family, your contributions will go a long way to joining the world together.
I would suggest starting with the New Member How-To pages, they will save you a lot of time and frustration.
Also, consider signing the Honor Code ; this will provide you with more ways to contribute.
I am here to answer any question you have, no matter how trivial you may think it is. There is no such thing as a silly question. Please add as much information as you can, it all helps to turn a “name” back into a person.
I hope you enjoy the site.
