I have started a MILLIE DNA project where males that carry the MILLIE surname can be tested at a group rate. (Males only because we are testing the Y-chromosome which passes from father to son) Females, who were born a MILLIE, can be involved by asking their father or brother or cousin MILLIE to join our project.
Others, who are in contact with males that carry the MILLIE surname can also be part of our project by encouraging those people to be tested.
Test results will be posted on the Surname website but your identity is protected.
If you match someone that has taken the test, before or after you, you are notified. Surname DNA studies nicely complement traditional genealogical research.
All testing is done by Family Tree DNA Company, the largest DNA testing company for genealogy purposes.
The project's website is
http://www.familytreedna.com/public/millie if you would like more information about Y-DNA testing or would like to join the project.
My MILLIE ancestors, John MILLIE(1813-1896) and son Peter Bain MILLIE(1840-1923, immigrated from Fife to New York and then on to New Brunswick Canada in 1853. There were several MILLIE families in Fife at the time and I'm hoping that DNA research will help differentiate the various MILLIE families.
If you are interested please send me a e-mail. I would like to know your
family line. I can give you other details via e-mail.
