I'm checking into DNA testing for the KNOTT(S) surname. We would have to have 6 or more MALE KNOTTS members.It should be pretty painless. You just take a scraping of the inside of your cheek. http://www.familytreedna.com The cost for people in a surname project would be $99 plus $2 shipping vs the standard price of $149. A year or so ago it was in excess of $200 . At this time, they don't offer testing with the female members in a surname project Please see this website; http://www.familytreedna.com/surname_sum.asp?let=K If this is not allowed on the lists, please contact me directly. Doug, I guess this is for your info only, although you might be surprised! If any one who knows a male KNOTTS who might be interested, please refer him to me. This might really be interesting. I have also included a few KNOTT(S) in the UK in my mailings. We might be able to see who came from where. Are there any absolutely positively male descendants of Jame KNOTT, b ca 1602 in England, out th! ere?! Bob KNOTTS, a DE/MD, IL., OR., KNOTTS in PHX, AZ
