The Dalton International DNA Project (DIDP) was established by the Dalton Genealogical Society(DGS) in May 2003. Now, with more than 300 participants, it is one of the largest and most respected DNA single surname studies worldwide.

We host a private Dalton DNA Group on Facebook and a Dalton Surname GEDMatch group (registration required for both services).

In October 2006 a preliminary presentation of the project findings was made at the DGS Annual Gathering in Hampton, New Hampshire, USA. In December 2007 an analysis of the DNA results of 99 testees in the project at that time. This included some testees in the Dalton America and other projects, whose DNA results matched testees in DIDP.

Updates to the Project were given at our 2011, 2020, 2021 & 2022 Gatherings.
