My name is Steve Overton, and I will be your host while you are visiting. This site was created for the purpose of sharing my genealogy database with relatives and others interested in the surname Overton plus the other 265 related surnames.

There are two main genealogy sections on the site. You can view my family line by clicking “OVERTON (Clan 3)”. There are 10 known Overton Clans residing in the US as identified by DNA research. You can see DNA results for all the clans at the " Overton DNA Project" web site.  To view the database of the other 9 Clans, click the option below called “OVERTONSONLY”.

If you are not sure which Clan you belong to and would like to know, please go to the "FamilyTreeDNA"web site and sign up to have your DNA tested. The test is easy and only involves swabbing your mouth with a Q-Tip. DNA testing is important. We have had Overtons who have spent countless hours in courthouses and cemeteries and web forums tracing their heritage and have been doing so over the past 20 to 50 years who thought they knew but were surprised when they took the DNA test and found out that they missed a critical connection that sent them down the wrong path. DNA is a new tool for the Genealogist that is becoming indispensable in doing accurate research. So be smart and use this tool for it can save you countless hours running down dead-end leads.

If you find broken links or other annoyances during your visit, please email me so that I can correct it and not annoy others that may follow after you.

I have other interest besides genealogy, but I have not had the time to design and build the web pages. At some point in the future, given the time, I will add other interest to the site. But for now the site is focused on genealogy.

Enjoy your visit,

Steve Randall Overton
