Dear Andrew, What a brilliant idea you have. I wish you well in your venture. Could you possibly make a presentation to some of the larger drug companies /and or medical facilities throughout the U.S. where they are constantly doing extensive research? Perhaps with your presenting an impressive package they would financially sponsor you and your venture. Some time ago there was a place in Tenn.(Maybe a college or University there) that was asking all genealogists to donate direct line information with the idea of finding out what diseases each generation had. Do you know anything about that? Ginger in Az.
