[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] DNA Testing

[Sigrid Pohl Perry]

 Family Tree DNA has a relationship with Igenea.com in Germany. They also have testing partnerships with other companies world-wide and for a fee will also transfer dna results from 23andme and Ancestry to www.familytreedna.com. Many of us in SGGEE have tested with them and I have had emails from 4th to 5th cousin autosomal matches who live in Germany. Of course, now we have to figure out which surname family includes our relationship. Sometimes finding that common surname is not easy, but at least we know where to begin looking. FTDNA also has a new project, Vistula River Settlement Project, which is appropriate for those of us whose German ancestors migrated through Poland.

Earl, Is it possible to run a DNA test on someone from Europe? ...with their 
permission of course. How do you do that. What DNA source do you recommend now 
that Ancestry is closing their DNA area?
