I just set up an M222 email greeting which the FTDNA system is supposed to automatically send to any new members. Welcome to the M222 Project! For background information on M222 see the following site: http://clanmaclochlainn.com/R1b1c7/ Here you'll find various articles including the groundbreaking Trinity study on the descendants of Nial, a spreadsheet version of the database you can download and use yourself and other relevant files. We also maintain an M222 discussion group on Rootsweb: http://lists.rootsweb.ancestry.com/index/other/DNA/DNA-R1B1C7.html We encourage you to join this group to discuss your own DNA with others or just to keep up with the latest developments in M222. I'm going to send out a variation of this to the entire project. I probably did not incorporate every suggestion made into this email but it is a start. I should have done this a long time ago. John
