Shutt/Schott/Shott DNA test
I would encourage any male with the last name of Shutt/Schott/Shott to consider taking a DNA test through Family Tree or one of the other labs doing genealogical testing. I belong to several other family surname projects and a great deal of supporting or new information is being found about our ancestors through DNA. It is a simple test: kit is mailed to you, you swab your cheek with a q-tip type thing, 4 times with several hours in between, drop it in the container and mail it back. Test takers privacy can be maintained. Many families are chipping in to share the cost of testing a male in the family. It's $149 for a 37 marker test. Currently only one Shutt descendant has tested and he has been put in with the Shultz DNA project. That's good enough for now but we could get our own project if others tested.
