We're getting a page!! This message also covers the female info...

Women can test, but they will only get information on their mothers mothers maternal side...and can't link to men of the COATES surname. See: www.ftdna.com/tc.html 2 already, that's great. I'll set you up! E-mail any time.

But one quick question.... Women can participate in this as well right? If so would they use the Maternal tests...if the females don't have say a Coats surnamed male they know they connect to...would they benefit from this? We have more females in our Coats lines than males...<g>...and some seem to think this DNA testing is only for men... Thanks much...
