Elaine, Your "Indian" genetic materials could have been passed along to you via female lines as well. This would be determined by a test of your Mitochondrial DNA, which is passed exclusively from the mother, her mother, etc. For futher reference on this, try a Google search for "Bryan Sykes," or "The Seven Daughters of Eve." This is a book detailing Mitochondrial DNA research done in the 1990's at Oxford University. The "Seven Daughters" book is a good one...an interesting read. -----Original Message----- From: <elainedecker@frontiernet.net> To: NYGREENE-L@rootsweb.com Date: Sun, 8 Jan 2006 11:50:25 -0500 Subject: Re: [GREENE COUNTY] Heritage/Linage > I had my DNA done.
