PROJECT BACKGROUND

Early in 2003, members of the Owsley (Ousley, Housley) family began utilizing Genealogy by Genetics in search of their ancestry or to confirm their ancestry.
 
The first three participants (#1, #2 and #3) volunteered to participate in this DNA Project, which was sponsored by the Owsley Family Historical Society. The goal was to help confirm that Robert Owsley and Joseph Owsley were sons of John Owsley II (1757-1845) of Claiborne County, Tennessee. The participants utilized the DNA Y-Chromosome 25-marker test with Family Tree DNA.
 
The first DNA testing in the Owsley Surname DNA Project proved to be a great success!! For more information, scroll down and click on DNA RESULTS-MORE DETAILS.

GOAL OF THIS PROJECT

The main goal of this DNA Project is to make available the use of Genealogy by Genetics as a tool to assist family members in search of their Owsley ancestry or to confirm their Owsley ancestry. (NOTE: Participants must be direct male Owsley descendants for utilization of the Y-Chromosome DNA testing.)  The Owsley Surname DNA Project utilizes FAMILY TREE DNA for our DNA testing. The use of the Y-DNA25 Marker DNA test for our Project Members is preferred. 
 
We would like to extend an invitation for members of all branches of the Owsley family to join this DNA Project.  
 
Examples:
 
(1.)  Descendants of Thomas Owsley III  and Mary Middleton (The "Kentucky" branch  of the Owsley family).
(2.)  Descendants of Newdigate Owsley and Mary Ann ________ (The "Georgia" branch of the Owsley family).
(3.)  Descendants of Weldon Owsley and Sarah ________.
(4.)  Descendants of John Owsley I and Ann Stephens (The "Tennessee" branch of the Owsley family).  
(5.)  Descendants of Owsley families located in England, Australia, and other countries.
(6.)  Descendants of other Owsley, Ousley, Ouseley, Housley, Howsley families.   
 
(NOTE: For this project to be successful, the participation of members of all branches of the Owsley family is necessary.)
