HI STEVE I HAVE NOT TALKED TO YOU IN A WHILE. MY GRANDFATHER ROBERT WOODALL , HIS FATHER SIR WILLIAM WOODALL, HIS FATHER JAMES D. WOODAL, ACCORDING MY SEARCHES COME FROM THE GOOCHLAND VA WOODALLS AND MY UNCLE HNERY WOODALL IS WILLING TO TAKE THE DNA TEST. WHAT IS THE COST TO DO THIS TEST. I WILL HAVE TO SAVE THE MONEY UP BUT LET ME KNOW WHAT I HAVE TO SAVE. HOW DO I ORDER THE TEST WHEN IT IS TIME THANK YOU FREDA AT PUGSRUS GRANTHAM NC 27530 >From: VONSKIPPER@aol.com >Reply-To: woodall@rootsweb.com >To: woodall@rootsweb.com >Subject: Re: [WOODALL] DNA - Woodall Males Needed >Date: Sat, 4 Nov 2006 12:38:15 EST > >Hi, > > Well, I guess we should be hopeful about finding our Woodall/Woodell >lines, keep our fingers crossed about it, anyway--if it hadn't been for >DNA >testing I'd never have found out my 1761-born John Woodell was descended >from >that Goochland, Va family.
