DeVault/Tevault DNA Project

DeVault/Tevault DNA Project

Classification: Query
I finally have this up and running and I'm hoping to get some folks interested in joining. My ancestors came from PA and VA in the 1700's and were often listed as being Tevaults (until about 1820). I can trace my line back to Jacob and Mary Michael DeVault who came to the Monongalia County, WV area around 1795.

After seeing how surnames evolved, I believe that many of the lines could be related. I'm looking at DeVault, TeVault, Dewalt, Devaul and a few other lines. Here's more information.

Even if you don't end up related to our line you could be linked to others in the study plus you'll have your DNA on file to compare against others (not only those in the study).

Surnames: DEVOLT, MOORE
I found on a marriage record that my ggg-grandmother's maiden name was DEVOLT (spelling on that record anyhow). She, Susannah/Susan DEVOLT, married John MOORE. A census record says she was born in Virginia. I do already have a DNA sample with FamilyTreeDNA.

Dale,

Is it viewable and/or can it be added to the project? I'm assuming were not a match or your DNA would show up on my list but I'll double check. Do you know your haplogroup? Ours is I1 (M253).

Dale,

My mistake, the YDNA is something that is passed down from father to son, etc. It's a paternal test.
