Hi, I'd like to thank all of you who have taken time to try to help with my request for information as to if there was a McAlpine male who had been tested with the Scot DNA project. As I understand it, at present the answer is no; there is not. I also want to thank those of you who googled deGylpin, deGylpyn and Gilpin, finding websites and resources for me. That was more then kind. I should have from the start explained I run the Gilpin message board, created the Gilpin mailing list, which I no longer admin, That I am a member of GILPINsearch@yoogroups have an all Gilpin website and am co-admin to the Gilpin DNA project, plus webmaster. I think you all are very helpful kind people and if you ever need info from any of the 30 + message boards I run or the 20+ mailing lists I admin.. just hollar..
