To all direct male Bradford descendants of Samuel Bradford of Snowhill, Worcester County, MD, greetings. I invite you to join the Bradford Y-DNA project. I and another Samuel descendant have already joined in the hopes that we can use DNA to help unravel the msytery of Samuel's parentage. We need more. The more participants we have the better we'll be able to determine Samuel's own y-DNA signature, the better to match him and us up with other lineages that might provide clues or further confirmation of Samuel's parentage. Descendants of other early Worcester Bradfords have signed up and we are eagerly awaiting their test results for a possible match. Please write me if you're interested or if you have any questions: bradford_adam@yahoo.com. NOTE: Participants must be descended in an unbroken line of males from Samuel in order to take part (sorry, folks - that's just the nature of the Y chromosome). WARNING: The possibility exists that one's DNA may reveal a descent other than the one you believe is yours. If you don't want to even entertain confronting this possibility, then DNA is not for you. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
