I'm the administrator of six DNA projects and co-admin of a seventh based at FamilyTreeDNA (one regional project, five Y-DNA surname projects, and one haplogroup project), plus I'm the DNA admin for the Lyon(s) Families Association.  I've also done analyses of Y-DNA test results from other projects for a few of my family lines or by request.  I'm unlikely to take on any more projects, but I will probably continue to add family analyses as time goes on (or, rather, as I can find the time). 

The projects are:

Danish Demes BIDDLE / BECHTEL CARRICO CORBIN RASEY STRAUB

These listings from FTDNA are useful with this caveat:  their cut-off points are a bit high.  So, don't write off a borderline match if other evidence suggests there should be a connection (e.g., they share an uncommon surname), in which case, look for "in-betweeners" that could bridge the genetic distance between them.
