Through Tuesday, June 30, 2009, the company that is co-ordinating our Ellison/Allison DNA Project is offering more than a 50% reduction in the price of the combined 37 marker Y-chromosome DNA test and the maternal matrilineal (mtDNA test). The Y-DNA test traces your father's direct paternal line and the mtDNA test traces your mother's direct maternal line.
I have been traveling and am late in posting this news, but I want to inform all Ellison men who are not yet members of the Ellison/Allison DNA Project and have been thinking about ordering a DNA test kit that for a few more days there is this great opportunity to order a DNA test kit at a very reduced price.
Any Ellison male who is interested in ordering a DNA test kit can use the link below to submit your name, mailing address, e-mail address, etc. to order a DNA sample kit to be mailed to you and join the Allison/Ellison DNA Project.

Scroll down to the second test "Y-DNA37+mtDNA for $119" (sale price). This is the test you would want to order.
The method of obtaining the DNA cells is simple and painless and doesn't involve any drawing of blood. The type of DNA that is analyzed for genealogical purposes doesn't provide any data about medical conditions. The DNA testing company sends a small tube with Q-tip-like swabs to each participant. All that needs to be done is to swab the inside of the cheek to collect some cells, replace the swabs in the tube and mail it back to the company. In about 8 weeks the company informs the participants about the results and lets them know if their score matches anyone else in the DNA database. If your score is a clsoe match to one or more men with the Allison or Ellison surname, you have found a long-lost cousin.
There are now more than 110 men who are members of the Allison/Ellison DNA Project, so your DNA score may match one or more current members with whom you can share genealogical information and learn more about your early ancestry. The 110+ participants live in England, Scotland, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the United States.
I'll be happy to answer your questions. I look forward to hearing from you.
Best wishes,
