Dear Edgar, Thanks for your reply. I'll see if our local library has a copy. Some of these articles are informative as well as some recent ones in Scientific American and New Scientist. Genealogy DNA-L is O.K. but a lot of opinions there. Are you any kin to the Taylor family in Anderson Co., SC (Rev. Ralph Taylor and wife ....King) descended as I am told from Green Taylor from NC. God Bless.
