New Mexico DNA Surname Project
Project Background
The
New Mexico DNA Project will cover the colonial expeditions of New
Mexico by the Spanish in 1598 and 1693, by the Mexicans in 1821, and by
the Americans in 1848. The New Mexico DNA Project will encompass not
only Hispanics, but
also Anglo-Americans who have come to New Mexico. In the years just
after the Conquest of the New World, the Native-American population was
decimated by disease and war,leaving a relatively small gene pool of
Native-American, Spanish, French, and English ancestors. DNA
studies on Hispanics show a higher European admixture. *Anthropologist
Andrew Merriwether and colleagues conducted a study on Hispanics living
in Colorado. Using classic genetic markers they estimated an admixture
of 67% European and 33% Native-American. He
further tested
their mitochondrial DNA (mtdna) which is a test to find the origins of
your great, great...grandmother, going back 10's of thousands of years.
This one ancestor which is your families "Eve" so to speak, showed up
as Native-American 85% of the time and European in origin 15% of the
time. Thus showing that the majority of unions in this admixture were of European males and
Native-American females.
Project Goals:
To
find our ancient origins, whatever they may be. To discover previously
unknown living relatives. To determine migration patterns
of different families. To see if similar sounding surnames are related.
To discover how closely related all of us really are. To share this information with others so that we can learn more about where we came from.
Project News:
If
a new member lives in the Albuquerque Metro area, the project
administrator will meet him or her in person and discuss genetic
migration patterns
and help them better understand their genetic origin. You can also
reach the project administrator at home. Please e-mail him requesting
phone number.
