The Hatcher DNA Project

The Goal

The Hatcher DNA Project has been created for the purpose of utilizing Y-DNA testing in the hope of answering the many unanswered questions about our ancestry and our possible common ancestor(s). This project is open to anyone having a male relative with the Hatcher surname from any country or part of our world.

The Objective

The objective of this project is to use Y-DNA testing to identify the various Hatcher families and to connect those members with common ancestry.

The most important questions to be answered are as follows:

1) Are any or all of our known Hatcher family groups connected to a common ancestor?

2) Will we discover new family groups?

3) If specific groups are found to be connected, what path of research can be used to prove the paper connection?

4) Will the test results provide us with sufficient clues to identify those earlier and unknown common ancestors?

5) Are there other international Hatcher families with a common ancestor matching one of our American families?
