Our Nye/Nigh/Neu DNA Project needs more participants to verify the family lineages published in L. Bert Nye's books concerning English and German Neu/Nye/Nigh/Neigh families (and alternate spellings).
The Y-DNA 67 marker test (on sale at $199) or better is recommended for males of direct Neu/Nye/Nigh/Neigh male to male ancestry, including alternate spellings.
To view reduced sales prices and to order at the sales prices, order through the EMERSON AMERSON AMASON DNA Project:

The newest addition to Family Tree DNA's kits is the Family Finder test, which can identify cousins as distant as 6 generations, for MALES or FEMALES.
Males, who have NOT been previously tested, should order the Y-DNA kit at 67 markers or better, to test within their surname. Those males who have previously tested at 37 markers or less should order the upgrade kits to 67 markers or 111 markers.
Females and males can order the mtDNA kits. Results of mtDNA testing reflect ONLY female ancestry.
