Barry R McCain is a writer and lives just outside Oxford, in the wooded hills of north Mississippi.  He writes on a wide variety of topics, but it is fair to say that many of his projects have Irish and Scottish themes. 

He has been traveling to Ireland and the UK for over 35 years.  He is the
editor and chief writer of The Ulster Heritage Magazine which is the online magazine of the Ulster Heritage Project.  He has published hundreds of articles and his work has appeared in The Highlander, Ireland's Own, and the Finn Valley Voice newspaper. 


Mr McCain is the administrator of the Ulster Heritage DNA Project.  This very successful project uses Y-chromosome and mtDNA to help families uncover their history and genealogy and reunites families in the Diaspora with their relatives living in Ireland and the UK.

Mr McCain is available for talks and seminars on genetic genealogy and matters relating to Ulster and his native Southland and is equally available for a wide variety of writing projects from brochures, to books, to magazine articles.  His fees are reasonable.  Just send him an email or call to engage his services.
