Please note that this group identifier has been changed from GRP-R-M269-9

This has been done to make a clear distinction and hopefully lessen confusion between an independent research, non-FamilyTreeDNA project similarly named on Wikitree to the old GRP-R-M269-9 project name. That Wikitree page does not, nor any other research pages on the internet,  have any affiliation with FamilyTreeDNA Smith DNA Official All Project, but is a project independent of the FamilyTreeDNA Smith Official -All Project and any matched grouping in the project. The person who has that page is not a member of the project nor of this group, nor does he admin any FTDNA project. The new grouping is GRP-R-M269-65 and the discussion for it is here on smithsworldwide.org  Imitation is a form of flattery and clearly this non-member liked the Smith DNA Project naming conventions so much,  that the Smith DNA Project administrators created, that he decided to copy it. The Smith DNA Project- Official All wants  people to come to the actual project pages. You can also see the YDNA results on FamilyTreeDNA Smith Official All pages here, as mantained by this project.
