My father's DNA matched with someone in Australia! Of all places, who knew where in Ireland his ancestor was likely from. Now we have pooled resources to search for common threads. So don't give up. You may want to upload your results to YSearch.com - they take DNA testing from any source not just FamilyTreeDNA, and provide matching and surname information. -----Original Message----- From: thomas-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:thomas-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of GNEOLOG@aol.com Sent: Thursday, March 27, 2008 7:30 AM To: thomas@rootsweb.com Subject: [THOMAS] DNA match In a message dated 3/27/2008 2:12:34 A.M.
