-The [https://www.familytreedna.com/public/Dennison?iframe=yresults Family Tree DNA Dennison DNA Project] currently does not separate the various Den(n)ison families. However, a private correspondence with the administrator of the project noted where several descendants of George Denison had taken the old Ancestry Y-STR DNA test. Plugging in the modal values from these tests into the NevGen Haplogroup Predictor gave a prediction of: I2a2a>M223>Z161>L623 with a 99.7% probability (however, having a fairly low fitness score due to lack of STR values).
