Cheers all,
Family Tree DNA has lowered the cost of DNA testing for the second time this summer. This
time for new participants. So, if you have been in contact with Carr Family Researchers
or know someone you wish to verify matches your paternal or maternal line DNA, let them
know about this sale and encourage them to order a test today. Same thing if there is
someone you want to have tested, order and pay for the test this week to capture the
discount. The sale lasts only until next Thursday at midnight US central daylight time,
so there is no time to procrastinate. Sale prices are only available through surname or
regional projects. Non- Carr lineage tests should be ordered through an appropriate
surname or regional project. Results can be shared with multiple projects once the
results are received.
The project is growing rapidly thanks to you, more people are finding their lineage and
more families are being connected all the time. I do have funds available for specific
tests, specified by the donors, so write to me if there is someone you think should be
tested but costs are an obstacle. Feel free to make a donation to the Project general
fund so we always have funds available for more testing of people of interest who can not
or will not order a test themselves. You can pay for a test for another person this way
as well. Of course, of particular interest are Carr, Kerr, Karr, Corr, Carre, etc.
families with family histories documented several generations into the past.
Enjoy the summer, we are on Facebook, Carr Genealogy, so if you are as well, friend us and
hopefully my posts there will help or at least interest you. Your posts are welcome
anytime. The Carr DNA List at
Rootsweb.com is still open as well.
Best always, John
