Atkinson DNA Project

In the Atkinson DNA Project we are grouping Atkinson (and variant named) Y DNA kits into matched related Y-DNA family groups to provide additional evidence about which Atkinson families are related on their direct paternal lines, even if the paper connections have not yet been made. Please assist us by building out Atkinson lines here on WikiTree. In collaboration with ATKINSON Project at FamilyTree DNA (FTDNA)

The Atkinson Family DNA Project is open to all who are interested in working together to find their common heritage through sharing of information and DNA testing.

If you have not DNA tested for genealogy (yet) - please consider doing DNA testing for genealogy! Surname Studies especially need y-DNA Testers as additional solid evidence for their genealogical work, especially when paper records are thin.

FTDNA Atkinson Project

The Atkinson Project is seeking additional Atkinson male y-DNA testers. Please join us to help untangle the connections between various Atkinson lines. Big-Y is encouraged if at all possible.

Those with Atkinson (or variant) surname within 6 generations who have DNA tested, male or female, are also invited to join the FTDNA Atkinson Project. If you have not tested at FTDNA, it is possible to upload your DNA results to FTDNA for free and join the project. We are looking for any clues that will assist us with building Atkinson family relationships.
