The Jesuit Enslaved Descendants DNA Project
The following information for Forensic Historians, Genealogists, and Ancestry Research buffs was extracted directly from the Ancestry Projects Page on GEDmatch.com. Kristi Lami is a confirmed DNA member of the group. Kristi Lami is the host of “Are You Related to Morgan Plantagenet?” located in the same free section of their Global Intelligence based Ancestry Platform. Please contact them directly for information about joining. We can only answer questions about our own group. The hosts of their program will have to assist you with any ancestral verifications of your own DNA. If you do match their terms for inclusion, we recommend that you add your own GED kit match number for inclusion in the Ancestry Preservation Project helping to solve cold cases in health and for the medical welfare of all.
“The Jesuit Enslaved Descendants DNA Project seeks to explore and explain the genealogical connections among the descendants of the people enslaved by the Jesuits, build and extend descendants’ pedigrees, confirm known ancestors, identify new ancestors, resolve genealogical research questions, and preserve the genetic heritage of the enslaved ancestors. We use all four types of human DNA to trace the families. The project here is a companion site for The Jesuit Enslaved DNA Project hosted on Family Tree DNA: https://www.familytreedna.com/groups/jesuit-enslaved-dna-project/about . We welcome and encourage known and suspected descendants of families enslaved by the Society of Jesus in U. S. locations including but not limited to Alabama, Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Kentucky, Grand Coteau – Louisiana, and Pennsylvania to join both sites to fuel the recovery of our collective past.”
