We will strive to work with our membership to find their common ancestors through sharing of information and DNA testing.  

Goals of the Kendall DNA Project:

• STOP the proliferation of genealogies that are not proven with documentation and based on sound research principles. 
• Supplement, prove or correct earlier Kendall genealogies and family histories based on the project research and genetic findings.
• Identify and confirm variant spellings of the Kendall surname.
• Explore relationships and migration patterns to determine new avenues for further investigation.
• Locate the origins of the Kendall patriarchs.
• Standardize our sources and citations.

And adhere to the

• “BGS Standards Manual”
• “Mastering Genealogical Proof" by Jones
• National Genealogical Society Guidelines
• “Evidence" and “Evidence Explained” by Shown-Mills
• “Chicago Manual of Style”
