Getting silly with DNA

[Pleroma]

Just a few of points on this topic:

Update

I found a update to this story. It's quite cool that they ended up having a little family reunion.

"Christmas came early this week for Smithsonian Institution researchers and relatives of an Accomack County boy whose unmarked grave was discovered accidentally...

About the murder and torture visible in a couple of the mummies----it's interesting how they just seem to assume it was war and not part of a "justice" system within the tribe.

Thanks Hando. I checked Youtube and the entire show is there in 6 parts, unfortunately it seems to be posted by over-excited David Duke worshipers.

If anyone who watched this episode would be kind enough to relate some of what was said, that would be wonderful.

Not only would this be helpful for Rainbow and anyone else that doesn't have cable but also for any Canadians comme moi.

I always wonder whenever I see people getting "definitive" results for Sierra Leone. This was far from an isolated community. There were so many refugees going there from British North America, the United States and the Caribbean that I don't see how a DNA match for this area would tell much...

This is a link to a genealogy tv show here in Canada and the story of singer Chantal Kreviazuk searching for her roots.

Ann, thanks for explaining how it works.

I did see the program and it was very interesting. They should show this film in high schools.

That is hilarious!

Does this guy have a PHD in cheesy Sci-Fi or has he spent too much time on Teen-Rated video games?

Thanks for posting a good laugh. ...

When I signed on and did a search I found 1 new match that was not yet included in SMGF's database. Also the Gedcom provided has not yet appeared at familysearch.org. I'm expecting that this information should show up soon at these sites.

I love the DNAvigator! It's a great feature....
