Genetic Roots and Branch of the Clan MacDougall - Could you be a blood descendant of Dougall MacSomhairle, King of the H

Meet Edward Sweeney and find out more about his groundbreaking research into the Y-chromosome DNA of the modern-day descendants of Somerled. Edward will begin by introducing himself and explaining how and why he first started what is now known as the MacDougall DNA Project. He will discuss what this research entails and what can be learned from Y-Chromosome DNA testing, what is already known about the Y-DNA patterns associated with paternal descendants of Somerled and Dougall and what the future of this project might hold. There will be time for questions and further information about the project and its resources will be available to all participants.
