done.
Thanks

I have responded privately to Joan on how to participate in the Cannon DNA
project.
About the Newsweek story on DNA - they very briefly mentioned the Trinity
College in Dublin's Irish DNA study. Trinity College thinks that a large
group of Irish descend from Niall of the Nine Hostages who lived in the 5th
century. The highest concentration is in northwest Ireland. CANNON is one
of
the surnames mentioned, apparently there were 3 CANNON's in this related
group. I have not found haplotypes listed for these CANNON's.
Of the 26 men in the Cannon DNA project 4 match this probable Niall group.

HI! I've been lurking on this list for some time now, but since my Cannon
Ancestor was born in Ireland and spent the rest of his life in Westchester
County, NY where he and his family are buried, I put out a few questions 4
or 5 years ago, but have not connected.
I watched your DNA Project with interest, but since it only followed the
male line and my cousins and I are all females I gave up on that.
NOW- I just got a newsletter from Newsweek that has me very excited. It
seems one of their staffers (a female) sent her DNA off somewhere and found
out she was not all that she thought she was. If this is true, how do I go
about joining your Project?
Thanks You Kindly, Joan Cannon Martin
