DNA Project?

DNA Project?

Surnames: Cannaday
Hi, I was wondering if any one here has done the DNA testing. I am a g-grandson of a Cannaday (from the Quaker Cannadays) and was wondering if any male has done the Y DNA test to see where (presumably from Ireland) these folks have come from. FamilyTree DNA does have a Kennedy group which would include that surname I guess. Also, I note Family Tree DNA also has a "East Carolina Roots Project" with this surname. It also apparently permits mtDNA entries. So, I was wondering if anyone has done this and, if not, if some folks could consider doing that? Thanks

I did the DNA testing several years ago as did several others.
We located several cousins in the USA.
I am in the Kennedy group you mentioned.
I am in the I M223 Y Haplogroup

I am a Cannady. I have a group of Cannady?Cannaday/Kennaday/Canady/Kennedy men I have tested through FTDNA. I had them tested through the Kennedy Surname group. OUr kit numbers are 207164, 207165, 207166, 207170, 312204 and 314384. There are a few other kit numbers for the mt DNA and FF test. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions. We are happy to share! BTW we tested Ancient Irish Kennedys.

Are you of the Quaker Cannady group? Do you know where in Ireland your group originated? When we were there last year, we were informed Wexford was where many originated. Are you familiar with Dr. Bowes work? I commend you to his website: http://www.irishorigenes.com/
He may be able to pin the location down. Thanks!

Hi John, Yes I have spoken with Dr. Tyrone Bowes. We are from the ancient Kennedy, Ryan, Butler and O'Carroll Clans that was from Tipperary area. There is a long history of these clans from the area. Have you had your DNA tested? If so did you go through FTDNA?
Thanks.

Yes, I match the Dodds originating from Cheshire. Dr. Bowes could not narrow that down more. I did the "family finder" with the Family Tree DNA, so if you are one of the same Quaker Cannady people, I would think we match there. You can email me you "real" name and contact info and I will see if there is a match.
