Boone Descendants DNA Testing Participants Wanted
Dell Ariola and Rochelle Cochran have just begun a BOONE-DNA Testing Project that will be conducted from 1 July 2001 until 1 August 2001, and they are looking for participants with the surname of Boone and all variant spellings. The following is their announcement of the project:

Boone-DNA (Surname) Testing Participants Wanted

Want to know which line of Boon/Boone/Bohun/LaBoon and all variant spellings you descend from?

A new Web site has been setup to inform Boon/Boone/Bohun/LaBoon and all variant spellings, of a Y-chromosome DNA testing project that will be conducted between 1 July 2001 and 1 August 2001.

The purpose of this project is to establish and separate the many different lines of that surname in the United States, Canada, England, Germany, France, Holland, The Netherlands and elsewhere, and we need participants from all countries. The use of DNA is the newest and most accurate tool available for genealogy.

Only males have the Y-chromosome and we need participants with the SURNAME of Boon/Boone/Bohun/LaBoon and the variant spellings. The DNA samples will be obtained by swabbing the inside of the cheek and will NOT be used for any other purpose than to test the Y-chromosome for this project.

For more information on this important project, please visit our Web site at: members.tripod.com/dellariola or send e-mail to the Project Coordinators: Rochelle Cochran at chelle1010@aol.com and Dell (Boone) Ariola at dell.ariola@gte.net.
