This forum has been established to stimulate research and the sharing of information between its members. At the same time, its purpose is to also help develop a sense of camaraderie and shared common goals in the search for our ancestors, both in the near-term and distant past.
All family researchers of similarly-named families, such as Merrell, Murrell, Morrell and Merle, are urged to compare their family histories and Y-DNA test results with ours.
Feel free to post any queries you might have. If you have general questions about DNA testing or genealogical research, post them, and we will do our best to answer them or direct you to a site that will.
A warm welcome goes to all wishing to join our quest. If you are a Merrill family descendant, we urge you to share what you know about your family. We'll do our best to match you up with your proper patriarch.
