Gary, As I have explained before... this DNA testing takes time. After the test are returned to the FamilyTreeDNA.com people they are grouped into batches and sent to the lab every 2 weeks. The test take at least 2 weeks to come back so it takes at the best (almost) a month to get results back. Of the test sent in so far... only 2 have come back with results. There have been 2 previous test taken (before the study started) and those results are also back but unfortunatley none of the test show any type of match so far. As soon as there are results to report with any connections there will be an announcement made on all the Harris groups that I belong to. Jeff Harris Harris DNA Study Group Administrator I am a Cooper so I am not eligible to donate DNA. One of my grandfathers was Wm. Harris/ wife Temperance Overton. I have good research from this pair down to me. I would very much like to connect this William Harris to the earlier Harris men in Jamestowne. Have you donated DNA, or do you know if the Harris DNA group has a Group Administrator? Thanks, Gary

Where can I get information on this test -- how they conduct it and what they expect to discover. ----- Original Message ----- From: "grabbag" <grabbag@meer.net> To: <HARRIS-HUNTERS-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, June 04, 2003 1:49 PM Subject: [HH] Re: HARRIS DNA > Gary, > As I have explained before... this DNA testing takes time.
