DNA cont.
The first stage is for Martin and I to get tested as we have documentary evidence of our both being descendants of Henry Hagger, he being my Gt Gt Grandfather. We will both pay for the full 43 marker test and these results will be the initial bench marks for the project.
How can you take part?
You can go to the Hagger Project at the DNA Heritage web site and register. DNA Heritage will then send you your kit which you can then return to either the UK or US offices. Once the kit arrives in the US the testing will take 3 to 4 weeks. You will then receive an invoice and once paid the results will be sent to you and our page on the DNA Heritage web site.
or at - www.genuki.org.uk/big/bigmisc/DNA.html
How much will it cost?
For the highest confidence results you need a 43 marker test and this costs $199. However, you can opt for a lower level test of 23 markers at $138 with the option to upgrade at any time at a cost of $5.99 per marker.
What we now need are male Hagg*r descendants to volunteer. If you wish to discuss anything to do with this project before committing yourself, please contact either Martin or myself and we will be pleased to try to answer your questions etc.
