Summer Sale on DNA Tests
Family Tree DNA (FTDNA) are really the only ones doing a full Y-DNA test. They have a summer sale on for August. Still expensive unfortunately and for Irish people who know where their ancestors came from the only worthwhile test is the Big Y-700 at $399 for $50 off. However a family can club together as there is only need for one male in the family to test. Click this link to access their shop.
