This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Minor, Miner Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/0AC.2ACE/889 Message Board Post: The Minor, Miner yDNA Project is just starting up. If you or your cousins are male and carry the Minor, Miner last name--or should but don't due to past parental divorce or an adoption, I hope that you will participate in one of these studies. We personally believe this will be the only way we can figure out where our Minor, Miner ancestors came from, and how the various Minor, Miner family groups are interrelated. More information about the studies can be found at: http://www.geocities.com/minordnaproject/index.htm Please contact me Jim Carpenter by clicking on the email icon on each home page if you have questions about these studies.
