About us
My name is Emily Doolin Aulicino, and I have been gathering Doolin data since 1970. As a result, I have found many major family groups with the Doolin surname, but no records, as yet, have been located to connect these families. With the hopes that DNA testing will assist in crumbling our brick walls, I am excited to be your administrator for this project, and urge you to join me in solving our surname dilemma.
As only the males with the surname of Doolin (and variant spellings) can be tested, please consider volunteering or if you aren't male and/or don't carry the surname, assist in locating possible candidates to test. Each of you who can't test could also consider contributing financially to those who can by clicking on the General Fund link.
I recommend that anyone wishing to test to consider a 37 marker as this provides a more accurate match. In order to find DNA matches, a tester needs to allow his DNA to be available to the public.
Each tester may forward their lineage to me (Emily). This lineage should be your all-male line with names, spouses, dates, and places of birth, marriage and death. I do not share dates and locales of the living nor maiden names of mothers whose children are living. However, by sharing your lineage with me, I email it to the project's private email group so others can see if they can help in your research. I would like to have you join the Doolin DNA E-mail list. Just contact me (Emily) at the above e-mail. This e-mail is a one-way communications to keep you updated on testing and product sales. However, forwarding your lineage and joining the email list is optional due to the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulations) law which was established for those living in EU countries and the UK, but over time may apply to all countries. I recognize that you own your DNA, and I respect your privacy and decisions regarding it. You can also remove your test results at any time and your lineage in my files will be deleted.
The success of this website will depend upon contributions of other Doolin researchers both with participation in the DNA Project and in providing source documentation and family records to assist everyone in understanding the lineage of the various DNA groups posted to this site.
As our group grows, there will be a need to revamp this website to assist its members. Send your ideas for this website, as well as any lineage you would like posted to the group email list, directly to me. In the least, I would like to post the ancestors in brief form for those who are testing. We do wish to respect everyone's privacy, so please do not expect any dates and locations for living persons to be added to this site. At best, the year of birth may be included. It is also imperative that we post genealogical data that has good documentation to minimize errors. If you share data that is speculative, please clearly state so.
Again, welcome to the group. We hope you enjoy your visit and that you will be the one to provide that missing link we all need!
