There was a news article in the Phoenix paper on the National Geo. DNA project. This project will not find or confirm your ancestors. They are rather looking to find where groups of people came from. In other words the migratory patterns of people in the world. The testing is done at the Arizona Research Laboratories at the U. of Arizona. Mike Cusanovich, director of the Lab had his DNA tested. Evidently Mike has not done any genealogy research on his family and knows little of Croatian History. here is what he said of his test: "My ancestors came to America from Croatia in the 1850s and have a long-standing Catholic heritage." But the results of his DNA analysis show that the Cusanoviches originally were Levites or Jews (evidently from the middle east) "They must have been converted during the Crusades," he said. This kind of helps to confirm that the Croatians may have originally come from the middle east someplace. More Croatian testing might confirm or debunk that theory. Bill Kane
