The Kirsch project was formed in July 2008 to determine whether the various Kirsch (and similar spelling) families worldwide are in fact related.

Several lines have been identified and we are actively seeking European Kirsch to test.  We are actively seeking a male from the Kirsch family in Mutterstadt or Fussgoenheim, Germany.

Initially the project was focused on Y-line DNA only, but more recently with the advent of the Family Finder test, we welcome all Kirsch descendants and will group them according to ancestral line.

Very few, if any, group e-mails will be sent through the project. To keep current with genetic genealogy information, please subscribe to the blog, www.dna-explained.com by clicking on the small grey "follow" button on the right side of the page. Not everyone appreciates e-mails from project administrators, and taking a blog approach allows people who are interested to subscribe without bothering those who aren't. So, please, subscribe to keep current.
