Who can participate?

Because only males inherit the Y-chromosome from their fathers, a male test subject is needed for the Y-DNA tests that provide the backbone of surname DNA studies such as ours. The subject needs to be a direct paternal descendant—in other words, for our project, his father’s father’s father… (anywhere along the all-male ancestral line) needs to have been a Wheelock. Because most of the time surnames, like Y-chromosomes, are passed from father to son to son…, most of the time the test subject himself will also be a Wheelock, but of course there could be exceptions in cases where, somewhere along the line, for whatever reason, a son did not carry his father’s surname. Females can participate by recruiting male relatives who are direct paternal descendants of their Wheelock lines. Alternatively, another type of DNA, called mitochondrial DNA, is always inherited (by both males and females) from the mother. In other words, it comes from the mother’s mother’s mother… along the direct m
