About us

Participation in this project is open to anyone anywhere in the world with a known or suspected all male Forrest or Forrester line. The goals of the project include, among others: (a) help participants solve longstanding genealogical problems and find new relationships with other Forrest or Forrester lines, (b) determine which particular Forrest and Forrester lines are closely related and which are not, (c) since most such lines apparently originated in Britain, especially Scotland, determine how closely related the Forrests and Forresters are to those from Britain with other surnames, etc.

This Family Tree DNA web site has basic information about the project and the results obtained. A more detailed description of the project is given at

and in the web pages linked to that site. The actual DNA results and ancestor information for each of the participants are given in tables linked to a thorough discussion of the results at
