Hi I saw your webpage and wondered if any of your Lancasters might be interested in joining the Lancaster DNA surname project.

See: http://users.skynet.be/lancaster/Lancaster.htm
See also the discussion of Results from the DNA project for the surnames

The project needs more Lancaster families in order to become more useful, and so I am looking around for other Lancaster enthusiasts.

Regards
Andrew Lancaster
