Lydon - Lyddon Y-DNA Project Announced
John Smeltzer 3/17/06
We now have six Lyddon - Lydon - Liddon family members involved in this Y-DNA and mtDNA project.Four members have submitted Y-DNA samples and we have two mtDNA samples.All of the Y-DNA samples are coming back R1b1 with roots in England and/or Ireland.The mtDNA samples are T* and J2.The interesting thing associated with the Y-DNA testing so far is that while the genetic distance between the surnames is considerable there are some real similarities between the Lyddon, Lydon (2) and Litton family members who have tested.We just need more participants to be able to start getting a good handle on how individuals are related and more about their deep ancestry.I encourage anyone who either is a male descendant of a line with the Lyddon, Lydon, Litton, or related surname to get in touch with me and consider participation in this project or having your results transferred here from another project.
