L-LL Genealogy
From: Bill Wigham
Dear Gabrielle &Al:
       Very interesting.  I guess we can expect more of such revelations as
time goes on.  Our Kennewick Man is thought to
have been descended from what we would now call the Ainu people who live on
Hokkaido, the Chi Shima and Karafuto.  I do not know if they could do any
DNA work on his remains before the local indians buried the evidence
according to law but It would have been interesting to have the sceletal
analysis backed up.
Cheers,
Bill

Gabriele asked: "Have you heard about Cheddar Man, the oldest skeleton found
in Britain? They traced his DNA to a British schoolteacher who is alive
today."

I'll bet if they keep at it they'll find his relatives in Wisconsin in the
U.S. ;-).  Sorry, I know that was cheesy.  Well...sorry again.

Mark,

You think that was cheesy?  You wanna know cheesy?  You can't handle cheesy!

Read on if you think you *can* handle it:

I bet they can trace it back specifically to a single Wisconsin man ... a
Kurd.

Regards,
Reinhard/Ron
