Hi cousins: I want to share a couple of web sites on DNA testing for genealogy research with you. The first is from the Barton family, and it is becoming sort of a clearing house type site for all kinds of info for genealogy by DNA: http://worldfamilies.net/ The next one is the personal genealogy site of David Merrell. He provides an eloquent description of how he came to use DNA testing for his genealogy, and what he has learned from it. His explanation is much better than anything I have posted. http://www.merrell.net/ Please email me if you have any questions. Dennis West descended from Isham PARKER, 1815, AL or MD coodinator for PARKER surname DNA project http://web.utk.edu/~corn/parkerdna/
