PROJECT
|
A Saylor DNA Project at www.FamilyTreeDNA.com was started recently after finding information speculating that two large Saylor families may be connected. If correct, we might be able to trace our family back to a Ulrich Seiler, born in 1570. Participation in the project provides a testing discount. The PRIMARY purpose is to validate a connection between the early Pennsylvania SAYLOR/SAYLER/SEILER families as suggested by the research of Richard Warren Davis. If validated through DNA testing this would connect the large families researched by Samuel J. Saylor (central PA) and Dr. E. C. Saylor (western PA). A DNA-12 marker test is sufficient to test this theory. This test costs $99 through the project. The SECONDARY purpose is to bring together other SAYLOR/SAYLER/SEILER families and to complement the genealogical paper trail. Testing is simple – requiring only a cotton swab of saliva from the mouth. Because the Y-chromosome DNA is passed from father to son virtually unchanged for hundreds of generations, the testing will focus on males with the SAYLOR/SAYLER/SEILER surname. Interested females are not excluded; but, must have a brother, father or male cousin submit a test. The DNA 37 marker sequence attached, for my test Kit # 51788, should be the same for all the SAYLOR males in our family. If not, the old story about the crow and the stump may be correct.
