We have $50.00 in the General Fund of the Carter Surname Project at Family Tree DNA that
was donated to help pay for a 37-Marker (or more) Y-DNA test Kit for a documented paternal
line descendant of Robert "King" Carter of Virginia. This $50.00 was donated as
part of the RKCVA group project:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/RKCVA/
If you are (or know of) a male documented paternal line descendant of Robert
"King" Carter of Virginia who may be interested in applying for this $50.00,
please contact Mike Terry, the Administrator of the Carter Surname Project at Family Tree
DNA:

In order to receive the $50.00 towards a Y-DNA test Kit, the DNA Donor must agree to the
following:
- To Join the public Carter Surname Project at Family Tree DNA.
http://www.familytreedna.com/public/carter/default.aspx?section=yresults
- To submit to the Administrator of the Carter Project a documented pedigree showing the
direct paternal line from Robert "King" Carter to the DNA Donor. The DNA Donor
does not have to have the surname Carter but must be able to show a documented direct
(biological) paternal line.
- To do the cheek swaps according to the instructions in the test Kit and return the DNA
samples along with the signed release form to the Family Tree DNA lab.
- To pay for the cost of the 37-Marker (or more) Y-DNA test Kit that is above the $50.00.
(Current Kit prices are on the Family Tree DNA website:

this test Kit or any other Carter test Kit), contributions can be made here:
