Text file only; not a pdf, screen shot or gedcom file. 2. Submit a Lee male relative for YDNA testing, 3.

The Project began in 2003. Thanks to the early success of Y-DNA testing, generous Lee researchers and the Henry Lee Society, this site has 67+ genetically unique Lee lines divided into “kinship groups” representing 600 individuals & researchers. We share information with other Lee DNA studies including the Guild of One Name Studies. We do NOT share information with the general public, however, we do share the donors email address and paternal line with close matches in the Project ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Each YDNA profile, kinship group and test kit# are posted in FTDNA, the Project database, and public www site. The restriction level set on the donors YDNA results must be set to “limited access” or “advance” for the administrators to be able to do their work. If you do not have a family member that is interested in genealogy, enter "Advance" for the Group Lead Administrator with the email address of leefamilyforum@aol.com. We hope you’ll join our research project as we seek to identify Lee lines (and variants) from the US, Europe, Ireland, England and all parts in between. Please contact project Administrator, David Lee (leefamilyforum@aol.com) with your bare-bones paternal Lee line and questions concerning the Henry Lee Society.
