My donor was very excited when I approached him about being a DNA donor for my family of QUEENS. You see, I am a Redmond but my mother was a Queen. Her brother Uncle Tom Queen was the last living son of my mother's family. Mother had died when I was fourteen and Uncle Tom had helped us a lot as we kids were growing up. I write this note to encourage those people who might be wondering, should they try this so called DNA project. Let me tell you this. I pondered it for a while, but I'm so glad I did it when I did. I went for the 12, then the 24 and 37 marker tests and Uncle Tom's come back with flying colors. Unbeknownst to us we almost waited a bit too long to do these test. We started the tests in January 2005 and you see, Uncle Tom Queen died April 10 2005. He held on to get the results of the 37 marker test. As I set beside his bed that morning, he tells me, "I know you got good news" for me boy. How do you know I have good news I ask him. He says, I see it on your face boy. I SHALL NOW WORK TOWARD GETTING MY KELLEYS/KELLYS, REDMONDS AND HINESLY/HINESLEY done. From the Home of Jimmy and JoAnne Redmond Sr
