NEW TO GENEALOGY? If so, please read this first.

GENEALOGY-DNA at RootsWeb (Began October 2002)
The original, pioneer list founded by Ann P. Turner; Jim Bullock is now the list administrator.
The posts and archives can be intimidating. Now days there are many, many posts about anthrogenealogy (deep/ancient ancestry) but all are welcome. Skim the archives before you join the list:
