About us
The Hally DNA Project welcomes all participants. We encourage you to join today!.
Our project has been ongoing for a while and we continue to have many exciting discoveries about the various Hally lines including the dates they were first formed.
Participating is an opportunity to uncover information not provided in the paper records, which will help with your research of your family tree. We will also discover which family trees are related. As the project progresses, the results for the various family trees will provide information on the evolution of the surname.
The surnames in this DNA Project are researched as part of the Hally one-name study. You can learn more about this significant research, and the associated family trees, by visiting the one-name study web site.

The Y DNA test tells you about your direct male line, which would be your father, his father, and back in time. You must be male to take this test, and you should have one of the surnames shown. If you believe there is a Hally or variant in your direct male line, although you have a different surname, you are also welcome to participate. If you are female, you will need to find a direct line male in your family tree to participate and represent your tree.
We encourage males to order a Y-DNA test for 37 markers, which will give an indication of which Hally line (if any) you are most closely related to. Later without you can consider upgrading to Y-111 or Big Y-700.
Both males and females may also be interested in learning about their direct female line, which would be their mother, their mother's mother, and back in time. Both men and women inherit mtDNA, although only women pass it on. To explore your direct female line, you would order a mtDNA test. For matches in a genealogical time frame, order the mtDNA Full Sequence test.
We have also established a General Fund, to accept donations in any currency via credit card or PayPal. These funds will be held at the testing company, and used to help sponsor test kits for those key males who would otherwise be unable to afford the cost of participation in the project. We encourage you to make a donation. To make a donation please click on the link below "To donate to the general fund please click here". If you decide to donate, please specify "Hally Project General Fund" in the top box of the Donation form.
