We are hoping to establish a database for Galouch/Galouche family DNA results with Family Tree DNA. We are using Y-DNA testing which will test Galouch/Galouche males only. The Y chromosome is passed from father to son unchanged except for minor mutations for 500 generations. Family Tree DNA use the testing facilities at the University of Arizona and will put our test kits in a storage area so we can come back for further tests i.e. you did a 12 marker test and want to upgrade to 25 markers, or maybe you would like to be tested for Native American markers etc. without having to go through the testing kit procedure again. They have security measures already in place to protect privacy. We will be identified by number, no name, etc. will be available except for ordering the testing kits. However DNA results are really of no use to anyone by themselves. No one can take anything from them, they are only of use when you are comparing them to other DNA samples, such as with this project.
