Hi Tom, We have corresponded on other things before. Saw your DNA quandary and thought I would suggest you enter your DNA values on the ysearch.org site. From there you can check for close matches on other lines. My husband is adopted, knew who his father was so he entered on their surname project. We have not received his 12-37 marker results yet, but think we are about to cause a problem for that surname project as far back as 1800 on that leg of the surname. Several of the Looney family did not match and they have found a couple of close matches with other surnames that would come into play during the 1800's. Ysearch.org is sponsored by FTDNA, the company doing the DNA samples. Nita Fry, Flynn, TX In a message dated 7/16/2006 4:52:55 P.M.

Yes, I have submitted my DNA to the outfit in Houston that processes and posts DNA data. So far, there have been no matches against other posted KING lines. But, from time to time, I check to see if my status has changed. I do hope that I will have a DNA match some day. I just hope it happens soon, since at 86, my available days for waiting are going by all too fast! Best wishes. Tom, Sr. from No. VA.

I have a DNA question. I have a male Caruthers who is willing to do a DNA test, but how do I go about this? Help please. Thanks. Betty McCollum
