Mark, will you add this info to the Callison home page for James who married Isabel Jones
-- just to keep everything in one place. <smile> Suzanne has found a male cousin
willing to do DNA testing so she and I are going to finance the test. He is not interested
in genealogy but graciously agreed to be tested to help us out. WAY TO GO. I just have to
get a little info from him and then I can order the test. That will be so interesting to
see how he compares with the known line from William through Joseph. The male who has
tested for that line has also upgraded his results to 67 so we can compare Hiram with
known line from William and two known lines from John SR. Oh yes, line from Hiram has
upgraded to 67 also. Not sure if I passed all this good news along. Take care. Marilyn
