Website Objectives

This is the personal website of Raymond (Ray) Warburton. To support my June 2006 launch of a Warburton Surname DNA Project at DNA Heritage I have redeveloped the site to promote and support that project. To that end the site will:

·         Present the objectives of the project and reasons why male Warburtons might wish to participate.

·         Provide a guide to more detailed information on the role of DNA testing in genealogy and the study of deep ancestry.

·         Provide guidance on project participation. The project is hosted on the DNA Heritage site, which administers testing and the distribution of results.

·         Provide summaries and interpretations of the study’s findings while adhering to this site’s privacy policy. This will be done via periodic newsletters emailed to participants and posted on this site.

·         Provide information on my own genealogical researches.

·         Provide access to me via email for questions and clarifications on the project, the supporting science (as far as I, as a layman, understand it), or anything else on this website.

I do not intend to provide a discussion board on this site. I have set up a discussion board for the project on Ybase. There are also Warburton specific discussion boards on Ancestry. Rootsweb, and Genealogy.com. I intend to post occasional notes on these, and any others I find, to help to promote the project and attract potential participants.

As this is my personal website I reserve the right to place here other material, not related to the Surname Project, though I will ensure it is kept separate.
