Invitation to Ingerton and Hingerton males to join the Hingerty YDNA Project
UPDATE April 2024: SUCCESS! An Ingerton male descendant of Thomas Hingerton/Hingerty (who lived in Roscrea, Tipperary in the 1800s) took a BigY700 test at Family Tree DNA. The results became available in April 2024. The results show that this descendant shares a direct common male ancestor with 11 Hingerty testers (who represent each of the 4 Hingerty family branches with living males in the world today). It is currently estimated that this common ancestor would have been born about 1700. These results show that the surnames Hingerty, Hingerton and Ingerton are closely related. In the 1700s they shared a single male ancestor. Now we need a Hingerton tester and an Ingerton tester from the USA, to make more connections between these rare surnames. If you are an Ingerton or Hingerton male, or know of one, PLEASE have them contact me hingerty@one-name.org or chingerty@redlocust.com Are you a male with the surname Ingerton or Hingerton? We need you!
