Most Americans bearing the surname Maple/Mapel are believed to be descendants of Benjamin Maple Sr, who died in New Brunswick, New Jersey in 1727. The initial goal of this study was to create a common family tree for Benjamin's descendants, using well documented primary references, and using DNA evidence to verify relationships and help fill in gaps.

While this work continues, the project is shifting focus to Maples living outside the United States. We are looking for male Maples who might be willing to join a Y-DNA study that could help us learn more about the origins of the Maple surname in England.

lf you have Maple ancestors, please join the Maple Name Study, and if you are a male Maple, please consider joining the Maple Surname Y-DNA Project.

Go to Maple Name Study to view the study page. There you can ask/answer questions or post relevant information.

See Maple DNA for a summary of DNA findings for American Maples.

See MAPLE/MAPLEY Y-DNA Haplogroups to find how you can help us learn about the origins of the Maple surname in England.

Please do not put Maple profiles in this category, but if you are participating in the study, please DO add the Maple Name Study category to YOUR own profile, This will create a link to your profile below, which researchers can follow to see notes that you have placed on your profile concerning DNA connections or other research interests.
