DNA Project Blurb..."Are you a Salts male? We need your help! Help determine if the various Salts family lines in the USA are related. Funding is available to help with the test costs for the first three participants. Contact the group administrator for more information. Your participation will help determine: 1. Do other Salts lines in the United States have a common ancestor with the Washington County, TN, Salts line? 2. Do the various descendents of the Washington County, TN, Salts families have a common ancestor?

Variations of the Salts name...
The following variations of the Salts family name have been found and are currently held in this data base - Salt, Salts, Saltz, Saltsz, Saulls, Sault, Saults, Saultz and Sults.

Solt connections...
Research is currently underway focusing on the history of Anthony Solt / Salts (first found in Lehigh Co., PA and later in Rowan Co., NC) and Henry Salts (first found in Rowan Co., NC and later in Washington County, Tennessee). Even though both men are shown in this database, no connection has been found that links them together in any possible way. The information found in their biographical sketches in this site has been posted for others to view. To date, there have been no documents found that identify lineage past Henry Salts of Washington County, Tennessee. All other suggestions are only speculation.

To those who have been here before, please note...
I work with four other people researching the Salts family name. Together, we have been working on the early Salts people of Washington County, Tennessee. From our findings -or lack of findings- we decided to remove links from some of the Salts people of the WACO area. We felt it would be better to show no links, rather than, undocumented and incorrect links.
