    Barbara, Tried to send you a message but I get a message that my headline is broken (null)? Says message was sent to the creator or some such. Just wanted you to know that your page is great. composed a message about Wisconsin research but it wouldn't send so . . . . May not stay on Genealogy Wise if too many glitches. Happy Hunting,
    Patti

    Hi Barbara, Thanks for your welcome. We are considering testing FGS for him to learn as much as we can. His maternal relatives are all deceased so this is our chance to learn as much as possible about his mom's family. He was delighted that he was a U, as that makes him different from the rest of us who are various flavors of H. Much of his family has northern German roots, but those folk are the various male relatives, so it doesn't count. We are stuck in Kansas right now....

    Yes, delaying any testing isn't the best for several reasons. Do be sure to read the archives on my blog. There's a lot of good info there for the beginners, although you may not be one. I hope you are also a member of the Family Tree DNA group on GW and of the ISOGG group. If not, I strongly suggest those to to anyone interested in DNA testing, even just those who are curious.

    Oops...forgot to ask? Are you a proponent of Family Tree DNA or another testing group? If another, could we talk. I researched the three major companies and learned a LOT about each. I would dearly hate to see people go with a company that won't work best for them. I also have a post on my blog about this, but it is not the details that everyone should know. It is more on how to choose a company. That is, what questions to ask of them, etc. BUT, when asked, I will tell you what I discovered when I asked and what many, many others told me about the companies they used.

    All I know is that the Ebreys I am researching came from Shropshire. Haven't gone back past that.

    Hi, Barbara! I thought I had left "friends" behind when I stopped lurking on Facebook. :-) But I'll happily be your friend. Having the U5b haplogroup is new to me, and I don't know how to interpret it yet. I know generally what it means, but its implications should be interesting, also.
