Genetic Results

Paternal DNA Research

I have created a "Winkel" project available at: Family Tree DNA to help Winkel's perform research. Those related to me do not need to join since my Y-DNA results cover the whole family. I get exact matches coming in every week or so. These people can be accessed to join their genealogy with those in the Hendrik Winkel line.

Our results from Family Tree DNA have also been sent to ysearch. This is probably the most likely location for family members to do research.

Results were also forwarded to National Geographic for there Genographic Project.

I also sent a DNA sample to the Sorenson Molecular Genealogy Foundation. SMGF is a free DNA service but you don't directly receive any results.

Family members can contact me for help accessing our results at these sites.

There is much more genetic research that can be done. I've only done the Y-DNA testing. Another common test is the Mitochondria - mtDNA Tests that trace materal lines.
