One purpose of DNA testing is to provide supporting data for genealogical research. Most members of the Meek/Meeks DNA Project participated for this reason. Therefore results are organized with a focus on the earliest known Meek ancestor. Member’s results are identified by their kit number and the ancestor’s name.
Each member’s results are assigned to a group based on the similarity of DNA between members of the Meek/Meeks Project. The exception is non-matching members who are grouped together with sub-groups based on the predicted haplogroup as indicated by the testing company. No member of one group can be related to a member of another group. The actual relationship of members of any group is not determined by DNA alone.
Related members of most groups are assigned to a sub-group based on one or more factor including the DNA profile, existing genealogies, time and location of the earliest known ancestor. Such assignments can be hypothetical and may be changed as addition data is acquired.

Not all members have made their results public.
There are now 111 STR markers available in "Standard orders". Most members of the project have at least 37 markers and that number is necessary in most cases. Generally speaking more markers are better. Check with the project administrator.
