About the Project

The Baucom Name Study project serves as a collaborative platform to collect information on the Baucom name. The hope is that other researchers like you will join the study to help make it a valuable reference point for other genealogists who are researching or have an interest in the Baucom name.

As a One Name Study, this project is not limited to persons who are related biologically. Individual team studies can be used to branch out the research into specific methods and areas of interest, such as geographically (England Baucoms), by time period (18th Century Baucoms), or by topic (Baucom DNA, Baucom Occupations, Baucom Statistics). These studies may also include a number of family branches which have no immediate link with each other. Some researchers may even be motivated to go beyond the profile identification and research stage to compile fully sourced, single-family histories of some of the families they discover through this name study project.

Three different Baucom families were in North Carolina by about 1750 according to what has been found on various websites. So far, Y DNA tests have proven that there were no relationships between these three lines.
