Hi guys - confused?? I had emailed Gene off the list with some stuff I had found regarding 464 mutations, but since I did not know if the stuff I was found was accurate I asked Rolla to check into it. Remember the old saying "just cause it is in print doesn't make it true." And now it has just dawned on me - perhaps I should have included Katy too. Anyway if stuff is relative and or valid, I'm sure Rolla will pass it on. Also one question - I have hopes of getting to Jewell County Kansas over Memorial day and exploring an abandoned cemetery. I have been told there are Queens buried there, tp watch out of snakes (uck), and that some of the stones are tipped over. What do I need to watch out for when picking up the stones (besides the snakes), if they are crumbling what can I do. Just trying to think ahead so I take whatever I need. If those of you who have prowled abandoned cemeterys have any input, let me know. Also hope for nice weather if it is muddy we won't be able to get there. I admit to a great deal of curiosity as I'm thinkng all my Jewell County Queens are accounted for.

I, too, will await a response from Rolla regarding the technical aspects. > > 2. I concur with the writer, John Chandler, regarding the example of why the names of donors who are close relatives should not be released until or unless they have reviewed the results of YDNA tests and concur with the release of their name. > > 3. The 3 Queen DNA samples with mutations on 464c do NOT appear to be anything other than coincidental mutations - except for the possibility of my John R. Queen. If there is a "problem" in his lineage, it clearly appears to have been an adoption issue. It is hoped that more samples will resolve this issue. > > Gene > > > ==== QUEEN Mailing List ==== > Visit Reiley Kidd's homepg to view Queen information > compiled and catagorized by first name: > http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Bluffs/2864/ > QUEEN YDNA PROJECT > http://www.familytreedna.com/surname_join.asp?code=X96855&special=True > http://www.ysearch.org/ > > ============================== > Search the US Census Collection.
