An outline pedigree has been posted for R-33, our newest participant.
Rather early to tell, but it looks like there might be some interesting distant dna matches with the other two Devon based trees, should we ever be able to find any paper connections.

11th: New member, some updates
The addition to the project of a transferee from the National Genographic Project prompted a check of the existing results.
Updated results have now been posted for one of the kits who had upgraded his markers, and the results received to date for the transferee have been added.
I also had a quick look at whether or not any exciting new matches between participants had snuck in when I wasn't looking.
Checking only those tested to the same number of markers:
The 67 marker tests still only have the two known lines with their confirming matches.
For the 25 and 37 marker tests none are showing as close matches with each other.
For the 12 marker tests R-21 is an exact match to R-30 but would need an upgrade in markers to see how close that might be in practice.
Any member who hasn't yet lodged a pedigree is welcome to do so, and any ROWE (and variant surnames) males interested in seeing if they have any unknown genetic relations out there are very welcome to join in.
Should anyone have any interesting ROWE webpage links they'd like added to the supplementary pages on the DNA Projects Portal, click on the compiler link on those pages to notify the webmaster of the details.

5th: Site updates
The DNA Projects Portal site has been updated to include a couple more of the ROWE project lines.
As the project is so diverse, only those with either a match, or a submitted pedigree are likely to have further information on the Portal than on the overall site at WorldFamilies.
A map has been added to the Rowe Lineage overview page showing places associated with a couple of the pedigrees.

10th: Why this blog exists
This blog was created to provide the ROWE DNA Admin with a convenient place to publish a project diary.
I prefer this format over the forums because of the labelling facility, and consistency with several other projects.
Should you be an active ROWE researcher and wish for authorship rights, please contact the project admin (email address on each project page)
I note that the project does not have pedigrees for all of our participants.
If it is any easier, I am happy to accept gedcoms, but please, only for the direct lineages, and no bdm data on living people.
In addition to the basic project pages at FamilyTree DNA, and those at the WorldFamilies Network, you may also be interested in the DNA Surnames site a "portal" to a number of dna projects.
For the ROWE project, the information is in its infancy, but it is intended to be an more easily and automatically generated site to supplement the WorldFamlies Network pages.

9th: Latest set of results posted
12 marker results for kit R-31 have been added.
Yet another instance of the ubiquitous R1b1b2 haplogroup.
The result table has had a couple of similar results combined into the one colour coding as the Genetic Distance reports show they are only a GD of 1 apart.
Should anyone wish to hazard some educated guesses as to whether or not we are showing any ROWE lineage patterns here as yet, we'd love to hear from you.
If you are thinking of joining in the fun of DNA testing, now is a good time, as Family Tree DNA are offering discounts up to the end of December, for those joining via a surname project such as the ROWE (and variants) one.
Read the FAQs, and follow the Join the Project link.

5th: Modal chart added to results
Several more results in, and kits ordered.
Check out the World Families Network ROWE project pages.
An additional version of the results table has been added, showing modal values for each haplogroup, with colour coded distance from them. (this will not be updated as frequently as the simple colour coded chart above it).
Should anyone wish to make a start on assigning family groups to these we'd love to hear from you.
