We used _www.familytreedna.com_ (http://www.familytreedna.com) I am waiting (but not holding my breath) for someone else to match my Thomas line. Not sure how much testing is being done in Germany. One sibling apparently stayed in Germany when my ancestor came to this country in 1720. Would love to find a relative ANYWHERE. DNA shows a Middle Eastern migration prior to Germany so I would not be surprized at any name that Thomas may have been derived from. Take care. Marilyn **************Start the year off right.
