Welcome to the Surname Project
Purpose
The purpose of the Wright DNA Project is to expand our genealogical research by proving or disproving family lines through DNA analysis.
Our project is open to any male Wright or man believing he is descended from a Wright male. While the majority of our participants come from the USA, we also have several men from Australia, Canada, England and China participating. We’re looking for more participants, particularly from the Great Britain, Ireland, and Germany, which are thought to be the likely ancestorial home of many Wright men today.
We also welcome Wright participants worldwide from any country where Wright families may currently reside.

Goals
- Help researchers from common or related branches of Wright families work together to find their shared heritage.
- Identify how the participants’ families are connected, both genetically and through paper trails.
- Identify and confirm genetic lineages of ancestral families and find our ancestral roots wherever they may be.
- Ultimately catalog pedigrees and genetic connections of all known Wright branches.
- Establish or estimate the number of different ancestral lines found among Wright families worldwide.
- Assist genealogy researchers in identifying and validating their immigrant Wright ancestor and/or earliest known Wright ancestor through the 37 Marker test.
- To prove or disprove existing theories about our ancestors.
- To determine which pre-Revolutionary ancestors were related and identify major family groups.
