I wish I really understood DNA testing - for instance - My mother's maiden name was Jones and she married a Jones - they go back to the same Jones about 5 generations back. If my brother had a DNA test would it be tracing just the Jones from my father's side? Also, I have three Justus sisters who were my gg grandmothers (I know - a very convoluted family). What would that do to my brother's DNA test? would it show the Justus DNA also? Could someone give me a quick simple answer?

We have almost 250 participants in the HILL DNA PROJECT, and most of them have proven or disproven large portions of their research that otherwise would have taken decades to confirm. Without DNA testing most of us in the project would still be where we were several years ago, searching for some huge missing piece to the puzzle that would have probably remained a mystery forever.
