04/20/2011: Sale of DNA Heritage assets to Family Tree DNA


Alistair Greenshields of DNA Heritage yesterday announced the sale of his company to Family Tree DNA.   Here is part of the email Alistair sent to his customers:

Today we have signed an agreement with Family Tree DNA to transfer the DNA Heritage database, and also the Ybase domain, site and database.  In a few weeks time, the DNA Heritage domain will also be transferred.

Customers within the DNA Heritage database will be able to opt-in to be uploaded into the FTDNA database.  Family Tree DNA will organize this opt-in process.  New orders can then later be taken through Family Tree DNA.  Project Funds for Surname Projects will remain intact in the transfer.
