ARE YOU
A MALE
DESCENDED
FROM

SIR ROBERT BELT
OF YORK
b. 15?? - d. 4 September 1656

If so, then the Belt family which now extends from the United Kingdom to the Netherlands, United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand would like to hear from you to assist with a DNA project to ascertain who is, and not, a descendant . This would involve giving a DNA sample, at no charge to you. For further information please contact J. D. Belt at

The major intent of the test is to compare it with other Belt family tracing their descent from Humphrey Belt born 1615 who immigrated to Virginia, USA in 1635. This will enable the discovery of the most likely areas in which Humphrey was born and possibly lead to the discovery of his origins.

Should you be a Belt not interested in giving a sample, but in joining the online Belt family details of present members can be found at

We need a male Belt with a proven family descent from Sir Robert to take a free DNA test and any information about the Belt family earlier than Sir Robert would be very welcome indeed. If you are the man we are looking for contact JD and he will arrange to pay for your DNA test. Any family members who read this and want more information will also find a warm welcome on 'Campus'. There is only one golden rule; all information is freely shared, whether about family history or general research useful to all historians.
