10.  WHO SHOULD PARTICIPATE?

 

Any male Correll of whatever spelling, who was born with that surname.    However, if there is a family of grandfather, father and some sons, the most economical way to start is for the oldest man to be Atested.@   There is less chance of a spontaneous mutation because there will be fewer generations back to a presumable MRCA.   However, all generations are welcome to participate. When the results are returned, there will be time to add other folks to the project.   Some of us may find that it will be useful to have our samples analyzed using many more markers.
