Hi... Thanks for responding to my earlier message asking for volunteers re the John Strange and Phebe Mitchell lineage. Unfortunately, we need a living male Strange descendant to participate in the study. If you know of such a person, we would welcome him to the Study. You can review the perameters of the Study at the following website: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~donegalstrongs/dnastudy.htm Thanks again....
