    3. Has anyone proven to be from this line taken the DNA test? It takes several greats before grandparents before I get to JORDAN but my mother's first cousin, Clifford, remembers when there was a lot of visiting between her grandmother Addie JORDAN ANDREWS and the JORDAN cousins. And, yes - we do pronounce it Gerd-an. Addie had a brother named Virgil. Clifford and I were at the National Odom Assembly (NOA) last weekend in Eufaula, AL and they are also working hard on the DNA testing. We find it very interesting but I'm so far removed (plus being female) that I can't take the tests! The last conversations I had over Jordan-L back in 1998 indicated Wiley Blount JORDAN may have been descended from Meredith JORDON m. Margaret ACRES>Benjamin L. JORDAN m. either Elizabeth L. CLARK or Elizabeth BYRD. Benjamin had a brother named Williamson JORDAN. One of Addie and Dr. T. H. ANDREWS' daughters was called Birdie Lee - given the family's history of using ancestors surnames as given names, this could well have been BYRD/BIRD and Lee could have been a family surname as well. Anyone have an update on this line?
