If you are a male Mitchell who has taken a Y-Chromosome Y-DNA test with any DNA testing company, you can upload your results to ysearch.org.  This is a free website that allows comparison of results from different companies and allows people to contact matches.

If you are a male Mitchell contemplating Y-DNA testing, Please consider joining us at the Mitchell DNA Project where over 400 Mitchells have tested so far.  See, https://www.familytreedna.com/public/Mitchell/ 

You can see family lines that have already tested at: https://www.familytreedna.com/public/Mitchell/default.aspx?section=yresults  and see the Paternal ancestor name column

Families tested include those in Great Britain, Ireland, Scotland, Canada and US, and more. All Mitchells/Mitchels and other variations are welcome to test.

Y-Chromosome testing is limited to males and will trace the paternal line of the testee.  Matches will include persons that share a common male paternal ancestor within 8-12 generations (usually), depending on the match details.   

Women can enlist a male Mitchell relative to take the test.

If you are researching the Mitchell surname, I wanted to invite you to view my website: http://www.worldfamilies.net/surnames/mitchell/

We have pedigrees up from Mitchells from all over the world, including those from England.  And we invite you to submit your pedigree also. Also at this site we have DNA testing results for nearly 200 Mitchells who have used this option to try to advance beyond paper research and use genetic genealogical research to learn more about their origins.  At the above website, there is a way for you to contact me for more information.
Thanks,
