Brigham Young University was the sponser in Jamestown on Saturday for the 
Molecular Biology.  The young Italian gentleman gave a wonderful presentation 
that made sense to me even though I had not used my genetic knowledge much 
since my college days 25 years ago.  

The release offered several options for varying levels of consent for use of 
the blood.  

Just think a few years from know we might be able to better define the links 
of various Sinclair lines by studying the Y Chromosomes of direct male 
descendents.  It will also play into the research mentioned by others 
regarding the theories of Orcadian descent from the Vikings and others.  One 
the database is established a strand of hair or cheek swab will suffice for 
DNA.                                Amazing.....                     Marilyn
