Dear Beulah and list, Often since I was even a child I knew people to keep those curls or shanks of hair in their trunks or such places as as a memory of grandparents. I had wondered if that would be possible to use for DNA and maybe you know. I don't personallly have any specimens like that but I just wanted to know if it ever came up. Many people may have saved hairbrushes,last worn clothes maybe even containing blood containing DNA. How about those old shaving cups with brushes? If we know only one person used them there should be DNA there. Can some of you say for sure and could it be used for our Reeves DNA testing.? Tommie
