Family Tree DNA provides a summary of DNA submission that are dynamically generated and includes of all submissions that belong to the Casey Surname Project within FTDNA database. This database does not include any submissions by other testing companies::
All Caseys FTDNA
The table above only includes submissions tested by Family Tree DNA and only includes submissions that have joined the Casey DNA Project. This summary also includes several possible Non-Paternity Event (NPE) submissions (those that do not have the Casey surname but believe they may have Casey DNA). Most of these NPE submissions probably do not have Casey DNA but not information is known to verify these submissions. For those NPE submissions that are believed to have Casey DNA, those are included in the grouping that they are related to (only one Hanvey submission qualifies to date). FTDNA does not allow submissions from other companies to be added to their database, so many Casey submissions from other companies are missing from this summary.
DNA submissions come from many sources and are not all from a single database. Since the number of submissions is now getting too large for one table and because their are no reason to keep non-related Caseys in the same table, there are now four other groupings of DNA submissions. These tables include many submissions from other testing companies that have been found in Y-Search. These tables only contain NPE submissions that have a high probability of having Casey DNA (via supporting documentation). These groupings are:
1) South Carolina (a true cluster of closely related submissions)
2) Munster, Ireland (a true cluster of related submissions)
3) R1b1a2 (a grouping of distantly related submissions - not a true cluster)
4) Others (submissions of non-Irish deep ancestry - two clusters)
