I have just received the results of my DNA Y Chromosome test from Family Tree DNA and would like to share them with the list. Mine is the first of 6 Lawrence surnamed males to take part in this project so far. The first of it's kind for the surname Lawrence. My DNA didn't match anyone else in FTDNA's database but 9 of my first 12 markers did match in the WWW.YSTR.org internet site for someone in Germany. I'm posting my results here for future reference so that others can possibly match or compare mine against their own. I'm also again inviting any and all males named Lawrence to join in our project and possibly learn more about their families and where they originated. This is the project that will sort out who is who in America named Lawrence. We presently have 2 who originated in England and 3 from Germany while one is undetermined. The cost is $101. for the 12 marker (allele) test, and $171. for the 25 marker test, including shipping for both, when ordered through our Surname Study. A $50. and $40. reduction from their regular prices. If interested please email me and I'll have a sample kit sent to your home within 4 working days. Here are my results: > LOCUSDYS#ALLELES > 1 393 14 > 2 390 23 > 3 19 15 > 4 391 10 > 5 385a 13 > 6 385b 15 > 7 426 11 > 8 388 13 > 9 439 11 > 10 389-1 14 > 11 392 12 > 12 389-2 32 > 13 458 14 > 14 459a 8 > 15 459b 9 > 16 455 11 > 17 454 11 > 18 447 25 > 19 437 14 > 20 448 20 > 21 449 27 > 22 464a 15 > 23 464b 15 > 24 464c 16 > 25 464d 16 > James H.
