Introduction

The majority of American Sieben families that have been studied originated within a 15 mile radius of Zornheim, Germany. (Abenheim, Sörgenloch, Ebersheim, Nackenheim and Mainz). A smaller number originate further northwest in Satzvey, Moenchen-Gladbach and Limburg, Netherlands. Below we outline several of these families.

yDNA Possibilities

yDNA is passed father to son, so it is ideal to study the different groups of Sieben from different locations, to see if there is a common ancestor. To date, there are no known Siebens that have taken the test at familytreedna.com.
