Hello, my name is Susan Milligan. I became administrator of the orphaned Worldfamilies Milligan/Milliken Y-DNA project about a year ago. A majority of the members of that group, including my own family, either appear to be or have been tested R-M222+. I'm a relative newbie to R-M222 so I have just been reading the list archives for a while. I decided to join after seeing two recent mailings from David Grierson about WTY testing on a member of a potential subgroup. If he applies for and is accepted for a WTY, would the R-M222 project general fund be available for those of us who may want to contribute toward the cost? Or does anyone know another way? It's so expensive that one person shouldn't have to assume the entire cost. My family's kit is used as a comparison in some of his reports, so I know we are among those who could potentially benefit by it. Susan

Hello, Suzan, So, you are relatively new to this? Well, I have some good news for you. I am altogether new to this, but I have no particular questions other than to get some general idea as to what is going on and how it works. And I appreciate your honesty and openness about your observations, thank you, and so it looks like we are off to a great start! Thanks!
