Brigham DNA
Brigham “This is the Place” Genealogy with DNA Applied
Brigham “This is the Place” genealogy is a detailed, surname-based family history project focusing on the migration and origins of surnames such as Elliott, Rush, Spencer, and Franklin, with DNA testing integrated to confirm and support genealogical findings Gorrenberry.
What It Is
The project is maintained by Gorrenberry and related contributors, and it combines:
- Traditional genealogy — tracing surname origins, migration patterns, and historical records.
- DNA analysis — using autosomal, Y-DNA, and mitochondrial DNA to verify ancestral lines, identify shared ancestry, and connect with living relatives Gorrenberry+1.
Key Focus Areas
- Ulster-Scots migration — tracing families from Northern England and Ulster to America, especially Maine and New England, in the 17th century Gorrenberry.
- Surname origins — exploring roots of names like Elliott, Armstrong Fairbairn, Crozier, Nixon, Johnson, and others, often linked to Scottish clans and border regions Gorrenberry+1.
- Clan and clan-like groups — such as the Riding Clans in Ulster, Armstrong Fairbairn, and Elwood/Ellwood/Ellot lineages Gorrenberry.
- Historical events — including the Ulster Muster (1610), the Battle of Worcester (1651), and the role of Border Reivers Gorrenberry+1.
DNA Integration
The project applies DNA to:
- Confirm surname origins — matching DNA results to known geographic and clan origins.
- Identify subclades — for example, R-L21, R-U106, R-L513, and subclades like L513→S5750 Gorrenberry.
- Link to living relatives — using autosomal DNA to find cousins and expand family trees.
- Cross-reference with historical records — ensuring that DNA matches align with documented migration and settlement patterns.
How to Explore
You can view the project on:
- Gorrenberry’s Brigham DNA site — with detailed genealogical trees, DNA results, and migration maps Gorrenberry.
- Elwald’s Brigham “This is the Place” page — offering additional surname histories, clan stories, and DNA applications Elwald.
- Clan Crozier’s related page — linking to broader Ulster-Scot and Border Reiver history Clan Crozier.
Why It Matters
This approach combines historical research with modern genetic testing, making it a powerful tool for:
- Validating long-standing family stories.
- Discovering unexpected ancestral connections.
- Understanding the deep roots of Ulster-Scots and other surname groups in the U.S.
If you’re interested in Ulster-Scots ancestry or surname migration, this project is a rich resource for both genealogists and DNA enthusiasts.

Перемирие в Первой мировой войне — «войне, которая должна была положить конец всем войнам» — а затем Вторая мировая война. Те, кто делает бомбы, получают Нобелевскую премию мира; однако президент-квакер — который разбогател в Китае как горный инженер, используя изобретение Альфреда Нобеля (ту самую динамит, которая впоследствии стала основой для учреждения Премии мира) и направил эти средства на продовольственную помощь народу Бельгии — был лишен Нобелевской премии за спасение людей от голода, что он осуществлял как после Первой, так и после Второй мировой войны. Один президент — будь то русский или американец — способен превратить мир в настоящий ад. Обретая чувство общности и семьи — изучая историю своего рода, так же, как это делают коренные народы или мормоны — вы утверждаете демократию через свободу слова, а не обречённость на молчание.
Марка Стивена Эллиотта, семейного историка
The armistice in World War I — “the war to end all wars” — and then World War II. Those who make bombs receive the Nobel Peace Prize; yet the Quaker president — who became wealthy in China as a mining engineer, using Alfred Nobel’s invention (the very dynamite that later became the basis for establishing the Peace Prize) and directed these funds to provide food aid to the people of Belgium — was denied the Nobel Prize for saving people from starvation, which he carried out both after the First and the Second World War. One president — whether Russian or American — is capable of turning the world into a real hell. By gaining a sense of community and family — studying the history of your lineage, just as indigenous peoples or Mormons do — you affirm democracy through freedom of speech, not the inevitability of silence.
Mark Stephen Elliott, family historian

Scottish Poetry Selection – Wha Daur Meddle Wi’ Me?
The royal coat of arms in Scotland has the Latin motto “Nemo me impune lacessit“. The English translation of this is “Nobody interferes with me with impunity” and this is often defiantly expressed in broad Scots as “Wha daur meddle wi’ me?” which is the title of this anonymous poem. But on this occasion it is being aggressively repeated by a member of the Elliot family, one of the Border families who not only fought their neighbours but were part of the first line of defence against marauding English invaders – and could sometimes defy the Scottish monarch as well!

Peace On The Border
After the riding we dispersed We drifted home in twos and threes Through cold and rain we spat and cursed This ancient war of families
In Barbados Anglican-Royalist Scot POW from the English Civil War 1650 were indentured to the Barbados Plantation, this a precursor to the African slaves.
В этот бесценный момент во всей истории человечества все люди на этой Земле поистине едины – едины в своей гордости за то, что вы сделали, и едины в своих молитвах о вашем благополучном возвращении на Землю.

The harp on the royalist flag symbolizes the Gaelic-Irish-Scots. US President Donald Trump’s mother comes from this line, and golf is a Scottish game. The Gaelic-Irish-Scots welcomed us border dwellers after the death of Queen Elizabeth I. Robert Bruce Armstrong published books on the harp and the Scottish-English Border.
