If you reside outside of the US or know of any possibly related James or other surname variations living in other countries, please pass on the word that they too can join the James Surname DNA Project. Family Tree DNA is set up to provide the same DNA testing services at project group prices with adjustments for additional shipping costs. Shipping to international countries costs $4 instead of the $2 in the United States with shipping to any country the US Postal service does and they use Federal Express with the charges varying by destination country. This offers a fantastic opportunity to reconnect with our European roots and other branches which have formed in other countries and to apply scientific tests to confirm or deny various theories as to where our roots were prior to the migration to the western hemisphere. FTDNA also now has provision for participants to belong to 2 surname projects at the same time so a person belonging to another group could also belong to the James Surname DNA project as well.
