The first round of 12 Y-DNA markers has been tested. Results are posted on the DNA page. We have also learned what Haplogroup the Pennington family is part of. Haplogroups are a typology of large segments of the entire population who share certain DNA similarities. In this case, Tom tested positive for marker M269 which is a certain indication of Haplogroup R1b1a2. This will all be explained on the DNA page.
I am looking for a male member of the Pennington family to step forward to undergo Y-Chromosome DNA testing. This test will show our ancestry in Scotland/England and possibly match us to living members with the same DNA. It will help answer a few questions I have concerning James Pennington and his parents. The test is expensive. It starts at $169. I will pay half. | AuthorJay Kruizenga is the son of Roselie Pennington, grandson of Ronald Wallace Pennington, great-grandson of Warren James Pennington, and 2nd-great grandson of James Pennington.
