Our family will be DNA tested. My Uncle, Edward Myrl Hughes will undergo the test this week. Hopefully this will reveal information of interest to our family and others as well.
Recently, I have heard from a family who believes that William H Hughes' oldest son was named John and that he moved to MO in or around 1847. This John was in Marshall Co. near William in 1840. Perhaps the DNA test will help us find the missing son as well as George's father. That would be great.

Posted by: Linda (Hughes) Caviness at December 8, 2005 04:46 PMOriginally I had planned to do that. I am sad to say that my uncle began to have reservations about taking a DNA test and he backed out at the last minute. We do not have many Hughes males left in our family, so I may have to shelve the idea. :-(
Posted by: JAN at December 9, 2005 10:12 AMHello Hughes Family
I am adopted. My biological name is Catherine Teresa Hughes. I would like to have my DNA tested to find my family. For over 30 years I've been trying to find my biological mother and family and have had no leads or luck. Perhaps this will help. I would love to meet someone who is really related to me by blood. Can I be part of the DNA testing and if so where can I send my blood for testing. I would greatly appreciate anyone answering me, thank you.
