Genetics and DNA
There is an on-going Macpherson / McPherson DNA project found at Family Tree DNA®.
As a general rule, this surname project is open to males and females born with the surname Macpherson/McPherson, or fairly recent Macpherson ancestry. Please link to the FTDNA site and provide the project administrators with a brief description of your Macpherson connections with your request to join this project. There are exceptions to this rule of course and all enquiries are welcome regardless of your name.
It is best to become a member of the Macpherson project before ordering a DNA test because group members receive a discount.
Please click here to order a test kit at a discounted price.
Many advances have been accomplished in DNA testing for genealogy in the past few years.
For males, please consider starting with a Y67; Y37 is okay if the extra cost is a barrier, you can always upgrade later. Project admins are always happy to provide advice prior to an order being placed.
