Welcome to our Dare Family web site! 

(see our Dare Family Y-DNA results below!)
 

Dare Family Researchers have compiled a database of over 134,000 names over the last 101 years!  If you think you are related to us, you have a lot of documented cousins!!  :)  Hi cuz!

 

Come meet your 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th cousins at our  101st  Annual
Dare Family Association Reunion!

Saturday September 21st, 2024

held at:

The Shipyard
60 Main St, Pennsville, New Jersey, 08070

11:00 AM to 3:00 PM

2024 Dare Family Association Reunion Registration Form

 

Another great opportunity for Food, Fun, Fellowship, and the sharing of photos and information with your Dare kin! 

We visit for a bit, browse Dare Family historic displays, then share a delicious home style meal, followed by a discussion time,
elections, and other DFA reports and business.


This reunion is open to all Dare Families, regardless of your ancestral line!  Since we have linked over 80 % of the Dares in America by DNA, we'd like to meet you if you have a Dare ancestry!  We have a historical display and archive that includes many Dare family lines. 

 

DNA Info:

Important side note: Over 80% of the Dares in America are not descended from a Dyer Family Line, as some people once thought before DNA tests of Dyers and Dare were compared!  They are radically different.  So the Dyers are not our ancestors.

btw: If you have male Dare DNA results and you match, please let us know?  Thanks!
 
We use FamilyTreeDNA.com and have a Dare Family group discount there. FamilyTreeDNA is the best site for Y-DNA testing (male lineage).  Our 37 marker Dare Y-DNA is as follows (for both South Jersey and Calvert Co, Maryland Dare immigrants):
