Re: Armenian DNA Project at FamilyTreeDNA.com

Re: Armenian DNA Project at FamilyTreeDNA.com

Hi Lindsay,

Good luck with your research! Do get back in touch when you have your family finder results.

Last week I gave a lecture on Armenian DNA in Montréal. It was sponsored by the AGBU and Hamazkayin. It was quite a successful event with more than 100 people in attendance.

Best,
Peter
