Devine Surname DNA Study

jaqschitt — Wed, 14 May 2008 09:38:52 +0000

If you are a Devine who knows where your family came from in Ireland, you can help this study. If you’re still searching for an ancestral place of origin, perhaps the study can help you. Our objective is to determine whether Devine families that came from known Irish localities are related, and if so, how closely. We initially test Y-chromosome DNA at 12 or 25 markers, and when close matches are found, then at additional markers, up to 67. Families are eligible to join if they bear any variation associated with the surname Devine, including Divine, Devin, Diven, Ó Duibhín, Ó Daimhín, Mac Dhuibhín, DeVine, DeWine, Devenney, Divinney, Davin, Dwane and Duane.
