I didn't get a taker on the offer, and I didn't want the sale price and coupon
to go to waste, so - with the permission of his contact - I ordered the Big-Y
test for one of our members, #143924. He is a patrilineal descendant of
Charles, as am I, so I very much appreciate this member's willingness to take
the test.
It's unlikely this test will help us with our paper genealogy, but it could help
us find out which country we came from, if not immediately, then eventually.
Now that one of Peter's descendants is taking the test, there's very little
reason for others to do so. If new SNPs are discovered, we may want to take
them individually, to see if we all have them. There is a remote possibility
that we could discover a SNP possessed by only one branch of the family, which
would be the best of all outcomes.
Results are projected to return no sooner than February, probably into March or
April, depending on how many people order the test during this sale.
