Project Background:
The Horowitz family is very large and descends from a line of distinguished Rabbis of the Ha-Levi family who moved from Gerona Spain in the 15th century to a town just outside Prague with the name of Horovice. Our family is a line of Levites and we know that we go back into Spain. While the genealogy has been put together for the rabbinical lines it is hard for a modern day Horowitz family member to tie into it.
Due to the dispersion of the family and changes in governments and local official languages and lack of consistent spelling rules our family name has many different variations including: Horowitz, Horwitz, Hurvitz, Hurwitch, Gurevich, Gurvitz, Gorovitz, Gurovich, and so forth. If you are in doubt contact the project administrator. Some of us have names which have been Americanized such as Howard. |
Project Goals:
| With enough participation of males with the Horowitz family name we will be able to establish our family's markers and establish a probability for our relationship without the paperwork. We may find interesting ties to other Y-DNA markers already in the world database of Jewish men and residents of various countries of the world. |
DNA Test Results (Alleles) for Project Members
* Haplogroups in green have been
confirmed by SNP testing. Haplogroups in red have
been predicted by Family Tree DNA based on unambiguous results in the
individual's personal page. This has been placed on this GAP page for your ease
and convenience. Please note that for any predicted results we see no reason for
ordering a SNP test to confirm the Haplogroup. if a – is in the HAPLO field then
we feel that the comparative results are not clear and unambiguous and if the
kit holder wants to know their SNP with 100% confidence they may consider
ordering a SNP confirmation test.
