A DNA Project
... is underway. More details can be found on the Wertman Family Association DNA Project Results page.
We have been using Y-Chromosome STRs (Short Tandem Repeats) to verify which Wertman men are related to George Philip Wertman of Lynn Township but not exactly how. We are now exploring using Y-Chromosome SNPs (Single-Nucleotide Polymorphisms) to verify the exact descent.
The project is open to Wertman males of known, or unknown ancestry. Our Executive Board has approved a plan where descendants of certain lines are eligible for reimbursement of partial or the complete cost of their test. Contact me for more details, or to learn if you qualify.
Donations are appreciated and can be made from the WFA DNA Group General Fund Contribution page. Join the Wertman Surname Project at Family Tree DNA.
