PEARSALL FAMILY DNA SURNAME PROJECT ANNOUNCEMENT:

 

March 14, 2007 – A fellow Pearsall genealogist/researcher found a THIRD branch of the Pearsall family. Sorenson Molecular Genealogy Foundation (SMGF.ORG) recently updated their database and results from a second Pearsall in their database is now available on their website.  This second Pearsall in SMGF’s database is the third known Pearsall branch; based on records available on the website, this branch is a more recent addition to the diversity of the Pearsall line (probable adoption ~1900 A.D.).  The ancestry of the natural paternal line is German “Steinhausen.” Based on available Y-DNA marker values currently known, the new branch is predicted to be 100.0% Haplogroup I1a – a Northern European origin.

Haplogroup I1a is concentrated mainly in northern Europe and Scandinavia:

 

 

 

 

 

NEXT STEPS

 

1.       Establish a reference for Pearsall in every state and country to verify the genealogy,

2.       Establish a reference for other possibly related surnames, and

3.       Establish a reference for earlier roots (e.g. England, Normandy, Norway, Sweden, and the Balkans).

 

Thanks to all participants and contributors!
