DNA Free all surnames
Hello Board,
My name is Tex Dick and I have a request that I hope some of the males on this list will take up. That is to give their DNA to be added to a free database.
From my home page, you can get there by clicking here while online http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~texdick/http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~texdick/
You will find on my web page a link labeled DNA that will take you to this site with this interduction: "Welcome to the Sorenson Molecular Genealogy Foundation The Sorenson Molecular Genealogy Foundation (SMGF) is a non-profit organization committed to developing the world's foremost database of correlated genetic and genealogical information, and making this information freely available to the public. DNA analysis is a powerful new tool for genealogical research. The SMGF database will allow genealogists to use their own genetic profile to identify possible genealogical links. This database is currently the largest of its kind in the world."
They are much interested in getting males from europe and other countries to donate their DNA. They may waver some rules for those not from the USA.
Anyone who meets their requirements can submit their DNA for free even those from the USA.
You will not get anything in return other than knowing you may have helped someone trace their family line.
To make use of the data you will need to know your own DNA profile which can cost a few bucks to get.
