Devon maternal line

Posted by Liz Davidson on 26/4/2018, 14:28:14

I have taken an Ancestry autosomal DNA test and transfered the results to GEDmatch. I am tracing my mother's family history and have 2 lines back to around 1700. The main names are WHITEWAY, CHURCHILL, TRUMAN & RICHARDS. Where do I go from here to join the Devon DNA project?
Thanks
Liz

You can do a free transfer to add your results to Family Tree DNA's Family Finder database. You can find instructions here:

https://www.familytreedna.com/autosomal-transfer

There is a small fee to get the ethnicity report. To qualify for the Devon Project you need to have recent Devon connections within the last five or six generations.

Once you have an FTDNA kit number and password you can submit an application to join the Devon Project.

I have now transfered my autosomal results to Family Tree DNA's Family Finder database. How do I now join the Devon Project? My mother's family tree traces back entirely in Devon for at least 7 generations.
Thanks
Liz

Hi Liz

Log into your FTDNA account, click on the Projects tab and then search for Devon. Then just click on the orange join button. I need to approve the Join Request manually.
