============================================================================================

All lineages noted in this update are those submitted by the participants and are stated by them to be correct (or probable in some cases). I do not verify or certify the accuracy of these lineages. It is my policy (not the policy of the Hollingsworth Surname DNA Project) to list the ancestors as they are submitted by the participant unless it can be verified to be incorrect. For future genealogy research, all lineages (including dates and locations) listed in this update should be considered no more than "probable" until actually proven by the future researcher.
