With all the discussion of DNA on the list right now, I thought it might be a good time to let Jefferson County Arringtons know about the Arrington Family DNA Project at Relative Genetics There are several Arrington lines in Jefferson County with no apparent connection. I descend from two "different" Arrington lines myself. If you are a man with the Arrington surname and wish to participate, the project coordinator is A. Lee Bettershell, 916-966-3166, _LBattershe@aol.com_ (mailto:LBattershe@aol.com) . I've forgotten the actual cost, but I think it was between $150 and $180 for a 25 marker test. Since I don't carry the Arrington surname, I paid for one of my Arrington cousins to take the test. Tom Williams
