awoodfellow,

I believe that both Blu & I were being sacastic about HR requiring DNA testing before buying a kilt -- they didn't when I bought one from them last year!

DNA testing, whilst appealing and interesting, will never replace good old-fashioned genealogy research. As much as I love the on-line databases like Ancestry.com, they & DNA-testing, as well as the unreliability of many Internet sites, have caused many who make their living in the genealogy profession an increasing number of headaches!

Since I worked as a genealogical librarian, I can certainly attest to the latter!

Cheers !
