The Boyle Surname Project serves as a clearinghouse for data from Y-chromosome tests for genealogical purposes. Such tests look at specific markers on a male's Y-chromosome – markers that don't change significantly from generation to generation. This genetic information is passed down from male ancestors to male descendants. Thus, if two people with the Boyle surname have identical markers, there is an increased chance that they had a common male ancestor in previous generations. On the other hand, if the two Boyles have significantly different markers, they are almost certainly not related in recent generations, at least through the all-male line of inheritance.
If the genetic database becomes large enough, connections between Boyle lines might become more apparent, even if the participants don't know the precise relationship. The genetic data alone can't tell you that you are a fourth cousin once removed to another participant in the database. But they could hint that there might have been a common ancestor within the past few generations.
Participating in the Boyle Surname Project makes you eligible for a reduced price on genetic testing by Family Tree DNA. Your genetic markers would be displayed on this page for comparison with other Boyles. Your personal identity would not be revealed through this project. However, the project administrator, Alan Boyle, would have your contact information for the purposes of forwarding queries.
Here are some links to further information about genetic genealogy and the project:
Here are the Boyle Surname Project's results so far. If the "Participant Number" is hot-linked, clicking on the link will bring you to a Ybase Web page that can search for similar genetic signatures in Ybase's database.
