As of April 7, 2005, there were 156 participants signed up for the Graves/Greaves/etc. DNA study, and results had been reported for 173 of those. These are from the following families. Information about each of these families can be found in the pertinent genealogy in the alphabetical ancestor listing. There are now test results, that include the laboratory test results of each submitted sample, and chart presentations of possible and proven ancestral connections. (Since this chart presentation is an Adobe Acrobat file, you must have either the Adobe Acrobat Reader or the full version of Adobe Acrobat for this to work. Click here to download the free Adobe Acrobat Reader if you don't already have it.) You can also see a more complete summary of families that may be related to each other but are not all part of the DNA study.
In the following list, people who agreed to take the test and were sent kits but then changed their minds are not included. People who had to be sent a second test kit are only included once, even though they had two kit numbers, since they will only have one sample.

| Total | 198 | 173 |
Although we would like to get participants from all the various families, among the ones that are especially needed are the following. To see more about these families, see the alphabetical ancestor listing.
Some of the beliefs, assumptions, and speculation about connections between some of the various families is shown on a separate list. Just click here to see it, and let us know of any other relationships you think should be added. If you can help us get DNA study participants from these families, then we may be able to prove or disprove the possible connections.
