Carpenter Cousins Y-DNA Project Update & FTDNA
Hello!
Below are 4 announcements from FTDNA.
FTDNA has extended the matching gifts for the Carpenter Cousins Y-DNA General Fund until the end of November.If you can spare $5.00, $10.00 or even $25.00 it would help!
If you would like to donate in the name of some one, We can honor that!If some one - business type? - would like the Carpenter Cousins Y-DNA General Fund named after them - We can honor that too!
I am working on a nice certificate for those that donate!
The Carpenter Cousins Y-DNA Project web page has been updated!See ...

I hope every one has survived the Elections and Halloween!I'm looking forward to Thanksgiving!
Is it not amazing that Our Founding Fathers chose to have National Elections on the first Tuesday of November - just after Halloween and All Saints Day!?I guess this allows the politicians to trick and treat us for a while ...
I guess in days of yore, like today, some times if would take a while for the votes to be counted and certified state by state in the Electoral College.Is it not truly prescient of Our Founding Fathers to give us a Day of Thanksgiving on the last Thursday of November after the dust has settled?!
Take care everyone!

> To Carpenter group manager,
>
> a) Matching gift and more: after the launch of the General Fund, many of
> you e-mailed me and asked if it would be possible for contributions to be
> made in memory, or in honor of a specific person. Others asked if the
> entire General Fund could be named in memory of a specific person. Our
> answer is yes to both alternatives. We are adding a field in the ordering
> page in case you want to honor a specific person with your donation. And,
> in case you want your entire General Fund to be named after someone,
> please let me know, and I will create a specific Contribution page that
> will have the person's name. In conjuction with that, we are continuing
> our matching gift offer until the end of
> November;(www.familytreedna.com/contribution.html)
>
> b) mtDNA promotion: Responding to our customers' requests, we have decided
> to extend the promotion on the mtDNA tests and bundles to the end of
> November. Please make your participants or potential participants aware of
