Hi Steve,

This project sounds quite interesting to me, however I do have a couple of questions.
If everyone tested comes up with enough variation from the test results will we be
able to see the genealogy data from these families? It would be nice to see where
relationships exists but almost as valuable to see where relationships don't exist.
To restate this question, will the DNA donors provide their known genealogical data
to the entire group? Next, what if I can't come up with a connecting ancestor to
Pennsylvania or Virginia? Where would you like to set the standard? I can only
trace my Wilson ancestor to a period before 1800 in the Lexington, Kentucky area.
I thought that these would be a couple of good questions to post to the group in
general, please let me know what the cost will be so that I can persuade one of my
first cousins (Wilson of course) to participate. Thanks for putting this project
together.

Sincerely,
Wayne Raschdorf
