Hello Mitzi, Your project is very interesting. Are you restricting you field of DNA Clients to families who have been proven to have lived in the Carolinas prior to becoming proven GA Residents? My Brick Wall is a great-grandfather named: "Alexander CLARK" born ca 1844, supposedly in Scotland; found in Merritton, Ontario, Canada in 1872; and then in 1880 in MASS. Locations in between, if any, are not known. My Grandfather: "William Alexander CLARK" b:1877 Ontario, Can. immigrated April 1879 NY and 1880 in MASS and later CT ca 1920 with his wife and SON: "William Albert CLARK", b: June 1908. If this meets your criteria, I would like further information on your project. I would present the idea to two Brothers living in CT. If interested, please reply soonest as I shall only be at this email address for another week. After 15 April, please use EMAIL Address: bernied@ns.sympatico.ca effective about 1 May 05. Thankyou.
