Project Background
As with most DNA projects, this one was formulated to enhance research begun many years ago. Smacking up against brick walls can sometimes make one desperate and desperate people do strange things. This may seem like one of those, but it is not. DNA testing is one of the surest ways to determine if two people are related. Then we have the job of verifying that with paper work.
As the internet has made it easier to find cousins, so DNA testing should help us to find more and to help us find the answers to many of our long asked questions.
