Keohanes of West Cork Clan DNA Project-

 I've yet to meet a Keohane that hasn't spent a lifetime spelling his name for others or hales from more than 50 miles of Skibbereen in West County Cork, Ireland. With such a small clan we can build up our knowledge of the clan, it's family relationships and locations. We will also trace our clan roots back in time to their beginnings. Already evidence suggests that there is no Adam and Eve Keohane, so are we the lost in the fog (Keo=fog in irish) O'Neils or a mutuation of the Crowley Clan? Did you know that there are Crowley family's in the US, that were Keohanes when they got on the boat in Ireland and Crowley's when they got off the boat in the US?

Did you know that George M Cohan is actualy a Keohane. You can help answer these questions and establish your place in the clan. Please join us by taking the 12-marker test, you won't regreat it.

Thanks, Bill Keohane

Surnames in Project:

Cohan, Keohane, Koehane, Kohane


Requirements:

Since a Surname Project in essence traces members of a family that share a common surname, and females (a) don't carry their father's Y-DNA, and (b) acquire a new surname by the way of marriage, in order to be relevant to the Surname Project, the tested individual must be a male that wants to check his paternal line (father's father's father's...). The test to be ordered is either the Y-DNA12, Y-DNA25 or Y-DNA37, and females should have the father, grandfather, or a brother or male cousin with that surname to be tested. Females can also order a test for themselves, which will be the mtDNA or mtDNAPlus, but they need to look for a mtDNA Lineage Project.
