Hi Listers, Dave Sykes a very good friend of mine, needs help from Direct Male Line Sykes in Yorkshire etc, . If you are search this Family, I will put you in touch with him. I guarantee that it will not be disappointed, and well worth your time. He say's:- DNA of Sykes descendants from the Huddersfield area. All ten are from the R1b (Celtic) branch of the family. Our main thrust now is to locate where the R1a (Viking) branch of the family settled in Yorkshire. This branch constitutes 40% of the American Sykes that have donated DNA samples, yet I am the only one who knows where his family lived in Yorkshire. I suspect that these Vikings lived in the town of Almondbury, which was first settled by Vikings, has a Viking name, and has a large present Sykes population, none of whom have offered DNA samples as yet. Thank you. Janet Ogden -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I am using the free version of SPAMfighter for private users.
