The above is not my work. Sorenson participants names are not given out but you can search the results. I cannot verify the above in any manner.
........................................................
From the Sorenson (SMGF) data base of Y DNA participants there are three surnamed MCKEE. From running searches of my husband's (Doug McKee) FTDNA Y DNA markers with those SMGF Y DNA McKee markers there is proof of kinship by bloodline.
There is also Y DNA evidence of the bloodline kinship of Mark McKee and another McKee from our McKee Group FTDNA database with the Saintfield, County Down, Norhern Ireland McKee Family.
.......................................................
The degree of kinship would go back aways, I have not figured that out, the paper trail has to be figured out from Mark McKee back to Ireland as does my husband's paper trail. Also, the other participant in the FTDNA McKee Group who is only known to me by a number.
If your paperwork lineage goes with the same McKee in Ireland and you have male McKee who would have the Y DNA test you should be able to prove your kinship beyond a doubt.
This is certain to create interest here I would think, both nay sayers and those interested in the progression of the search back in time. Any help and suggestions are welcome.
