Note: BIGY is the best test any man can do.
Members keep asking the same questions and some of these could be answered if more men with Ancestors from this area did YDNA to 111 markers and BIGY.
AT DNA testing only has a limited capability and 3rd and 4th cousins do not always see matches from this test... only a YDNA test can take you back further and for those with hidden Non Paternal Events a YDNA test could show where this event actually happened and with which other Surname from within the area or farther afield.
