Thank you for your kind words Dick.
I am almost convinced to take the DNA test just because I am at a solid
brick wall on my ancestry.
The thing I do not understand is how does one collect DNA from the past ?
Such as my father, Grandfather and so on. DNA is relatively new and I am
guessing that not many living Chandler's have submitted to the test.
But, as I say I am confused on this issue as I just don't understand how we
can get DNA matches from past generations.
