I have decided to use this forum to periodically report on the progress of the project, since several participants have requested me to do this. The Phillips Worldwide DNA Project currently has 258 members. We are gaining approximately 10 to 12 new members per month. At this rate, we should have 350 participants by the end of 2008. As of this date (Friday March 28, 2008), twenty two kits are being processed at the lab. Eleven of those kits are for new participants, and the rest are upgrades and refinements of the DNA of existing members. Some of the new results are due back from the lab by 18 April 2008. Here are links to our websites at World Families and Family Tree DNA where you can review the DNA and pedigrees of our participants: http://www.worldfamilies.net/surnames/p/phillips/index.html http://www.familytreedna.com/public/PhillipsWorldwide/ Sincerely, Nancy Kiser Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
