Chester Races -- Gee-Gees at the Roodee

Discovering the roots of the Gee Family through DNA studies.

Our goal is to use genetics to map the major Gee families in England, America, Australia and elewhere. Then any male Gee will be able to test to discover through which branch they are related. Our initial results show that not all Gee's share a common ancestor. (And not even a common pronunciation!) We are especially looking for particpants from:

France (especially near Gée in the Loire Valley, Coulans-sur-Gée or Brains-sur-Gée)
Leicestershire
Yorkshire (especially near Hull or Bishop Burton)
Devonshire
Virginia, New Hampshire

Leicestershire Gee's (Rothley)

Cheshire Gee's (Chester, Stockport, Gee Cross)

Yorkshire Gee's (Kingston-upon-Hull, Bishop Beverly)

Gee's in America (Massachusetts, New York, Virginia, Texas)

HOW TO JOIN

You can join the Gee Family DNA Study providing that you are a male Gee. You can order your test kit online, qualifying for the Gee study special group rate from FamilyTreeDNA, the most reliable and well-respected test lab in the world.

We recommend choosing, if possible, the "Y-DNA25 -- Male 25 marker paternal test $148 (Group) test" over the basic "Y-DNA -- Male 12 marker paternal test $99 (Group)" test as the greater number of markers increases the accuracy of family matching. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact us.
