Hi Emily,
No, I do not know Debbie Kinnett. But I do know Debbie Kennett, and we have been corresponding by Email for quite a while now. I have even taken her DNA test.
I do thank you for your concern.
Emily, I was in touch with you along time ago, I am a decendant of John and Polly Douglass Ogan, their son Irwin Ogan, his son Andrew Gish and his son Charles H Ogan was my grandfather (all proven)
I know Chet Ogan in Eureka CA. I pretty much have it all from Irwin down.
Thanks for inviting me Shirley
Hi Emily,
Thanks for posting on the Haplogroup U group here at GenealogyWise. I've started a discussion for everyone who has Haplogroup U results and would like to share what they know of their maternal ancestry. I also read with some interest the post on your blog about government control of DNA test for genealogy purposes. Sure suggests now is the time to test your mtDNA and Y chromosome DNA!
Hi Emily, I'm not a proponent of any particular DNA testing service over another one. The Haplogroup U group is for all interested in mtDNA testing who want to learn, share results and share maternal ancestry. If you have a blog post about how to choose a testing company, I just started a discussion called Testing Your mtDNA and I'd love to have you post there with links to your posts on this topic. Thank you! Barbara
I read on the Haplogroup U page that you were looking for "at least a U5a1". I'm a U5a1b1. Let me know if I can [try to] answer any family history questions. :)

I submitted a comment about Toppesfield, Essex, UK register findings, but I don't see that it showed up. Was it lost?
