 In 8/2020 this web site was converted to the new Google Site format, using their conversion tool.  The process removed text formatting (colors, etc) as well as distorted some other formats.  

SNP testing is rapidly becoming a tool for genealogy.  You may want to review the information pages at SNPS and the E-M44 Phelps

4/2019:  Due to the unanticipated removal of the author's web space by the ISP Suddenlink.net  resource documents in that web space had to be recreated elsewhere.  As a result resource links found within this web site had to be changed to link to the new resource site.  A number more were fixed in

9/2019   D Phelps has resolved the issue by using the Original web space.  Due to those alternating sites, some links will remain invalid until corrected.  Please notify the author of this site for missing links you need.
