I am looking for Utley males from the Goochland/Powhatan Utleys to participate in the Utley DNA project. The DNA test is a painless process which involves using 3 cotton swabs to gather samples from inside the mouth. I have recently submitted my test to Ancestry & discovered that I come from the same stock as the Uttleys of Heptonstall, Yorkshire, England. My purpose in taking the test is also to find a link between the Virginia & North Carolina Utleys from whom I am descended. If interested, please go to Ancestry.com for order information or contact me via email. Jim Utley, b. Richmond, Va, now in Fulton , Maryland just outside DC & Baltimore.

Jim:

I am a descendant of the Utley Family of Goochland Co., VA. My great great grandmother is Virgnia Jean Utley who married Jeremiah Ellis on 8 Feb., 1819 in Goochland Co., VA. The parents of Virginia Jean are Obediah Utley and Jane Willis of Goochland Co., VA. Are you by chance related to this Utley Family?

Probably related, Bernie, but still looking for Utley males from the Goochland branch to take the DNA test to confirm this.
