The Phillips DNA Project News

11/03/2009: Satellite Phillips DNA Project set up at Ancestry.com


News alert!  We have set up a satellite or parallel Phillips DNA Project at Ancestry.com to accommodate the growing number of people who have been DNA tested by that company.  If you are one of these people, please join our satellite project at Ancestry.com.  Here is how to do it:  access your DNA account at Ancestry.com with your User Name and Password.  Click on the brown tab that says Visit Groups on the left hand side of your screen.  On the next page that comes up, enter the name Phillips in the box that says Search for Groups on the right hand side of your screen and then click on the orange button that says Submit.  On the next page that comes up, scroll down to The Phillips DNA Group on the left hand side of the page and click on those words.  On the next page that comes up, click on the orange button that says Request Membership.

For those of you who have been tested by Family Tree DNA or another testing company other than Ancestry.com, please consider setting up a free DNA account at Ancestry.com and entering your DNA values by hand.  We have found more than 50 people named Phillips in the Ancestry.com database and over half of them have matches in the Phillips DNA Project.  We would like to help you make contact with potential matches in the Ancestry.com database, and this will be facilitated if you set up an account with Ancestry.com.  Here is how to do it: Go to http://dna.ancestry.com/welcome.aspx.  Close to the bottom of the page on the right you will see the following words in brown: Transfer Results From Other Lab.  Click on those words.  That will take you to a page where you can register and set up an account.

If anyone needs help following any of these instructions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
