Dear Geraldine, I believe we have corresponded previously. I'm delighted that your second cousin is a participant in the Allison/Ellison DNA Project. Thanks to the DNA results, you now have fifteen new cousins in Group C who have DNA scores fairly close to your cousin's DNA score. How many of them did you know about prior to DNA testing? You can contact any one of your cousins by clicking on the E-mail link at the top of each of their pedigree charts. The value of finding so many others that match your cousin's DNA score is the opportunity to exchange genealogical information with each other. Let us know of any new Allison data that you have learned from your new cousins.
