One of our family members, Doris McClenny Boiesen,
very generously provided startup funds for DNA (DNA is the Gene in
Genealogy) testing of seven (7) male
family members, one each from branches 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 14. You may notice we
only list six (6) branches. The reason for this
is that one branch was
determined to not be related to the others tested. The
most recent test was completed during the July, 2005.
If you would like to learn more about the DNA testing program, click on
Doris McClenny Boiesen
and send her e-mail.
Our family members had their DNA tested by the lab at:
Family Tree

713-868-1438
Family members of our other branches are encouraged to participate in DNA testing.
Please share your finding with us
so we can publish the results here on our website. I believe the cost of testing is approximately $180 for each person tested.
What better way to find out if your
branch is related to the others?
How does the DNA testing work? You receive a kit in the mail that contains a
couple of cotton
swaps, which you simply wipe inside your mouth, place in a tube
and return to the testing facility. Results are generally returned to you within
one month.
Technically speaking, the Y chromosome is passed
from father to son unchanged, except for a mutation about every 500 generations.
Testing the Y chromosome will provide you with a genetic finger print consisting
of 12 or 25 numbers. By comparing this finger print to others with your surname,
you can determine if they are related. The objectives of these tests are to:
Identify family branches who are related
Prove or disprove theories regarding ancestors
Tear down brick walls in our research
Determine possible opportunities for further research
Validate existing research

The below information details the
DNA matches and indicates the number of generations back
in which the
various family branches share a common relative. That is if I
understand correctly.
