Larry,
Mike gave you plenty of good information about the Carroll DNA Project
when he answered your letter on the CARROLL(a)rootsweb.com mail list.
Since you are a member of this CARROLL-DNA mail list I decided to
write a little more to you on this list. I hope others on this
smaller list will add more more information about their own experience
with the DNA process.
When a person receives a DNA kit, it contains a piece of paper asking
you if the numbers on your report may be sent to the administrator of
the DNA project. If you sign that piece of paper and return it to
FamilyTreeDNA when you return the kit to them after having swabbed the
inside of your cheeks, then they will send the report to the
administrator (Kevin Carroll) for you. Then as soon as Kevin has the
time he will post that report to the site he maintains for the CARROLL
project at
As you see most men have Kevin part of their pedigree there with the
report. You should send that to Kevin after he receives your report,
but I think the report should not have your name or the name of your
father if he is still living. Some people in other projects want their
own name with the report.
Also FTDNA adds the new line identified only by the kit number to the
chart they maintain at
