I have two brothers who could take the Y test, and I could take the MTDNA test, but if it's the wrong branch of the family tree, we don't want to waste our money. Also I want to find out family information on Thomas Godby's ancestry: where they came from. The Nathan Godle discussed in the Godley DNA Project on FamilyTreeDNA.com came to VA from Cheshire, England in 1637, according to their bio. My ancestor, Thomas Godby came to VA on the ship Deliverance in 1610 and died in 1628. I'm not sure whether this project would be related to my line, though in reading the rest of the bio, there seems to be some connection because I'm also related to the Godbeys who went from Casey County, KY to Missouri, and then my ggrandfather went to Texas, along with several of his siblings.
