The first 2 DNA test results have been posted and the most interesting fact is that not only are they NOT a match the most likely family place of origin is different. This is a very important aspect of the test. We are awaiting the results of the third test which are targeted for the month of July.

We really need more direct Camden male descendants to participate in the DNA study. Now that we know that William Camden of Kentucky was not related to old John Camden of Amherst Co. VA we need to try to piece these Camdens together.

A big step in accomplishing this would be to have a descendant of Henry Camden of Maryland to take the DNA test. This would hopefully confirm that old John and Henry were related.

Personally, I would like to see descendants of Henry Camden of Maryland, Bartley Camden, Marble Peter McPatrick Camden, and Gideon Camden participate. Of course, I would like to see all Camden males participate which would make this project a success. Your help is what we need to get the answers that we all are looking for.

Thanks,
Sylvia
