The following new message has been added to the Williams DNA Project board under the new topic of Recruiting Participants in the UK/Wales... -------------------------------- Y'all, I have been stymied for some time now with a major challenge our project has: recruiting participants from Wales/UK. Considering that probably at least 90% of our ancestors originated in Wales/UK, it only seems smart to try to get UK participation in the project. And, considering that at one point, Williams was THE most common surname in Wales/UK, one would think it would be easy to get participants. Trick is how? Being smack dab in the middle of the US, with little contact with anyone across the pond, I am stumped on how to encourage participation from over there. So, I ask all of you.....what can we do with this? - Adrian

perhaps post on a uk genforum or same type board?
