10/11/2011: Launch of Irish Origenes website


We recently received the following announcement from an Irishman named Dr. Tyrone Bowes:

Dear Sir/Madam,
As the Administrator of the Phillips Surname I am hoping that you will pass on the details of this new website 
http://www.irishorigenes.com/ and its benefits to your members, some of whom may suspect that they have Irish ancestry based on the Surnames of their genetic matches. Given that the Surnames of one's genetic matches are a snapshot of one's medieval ancestors neighbors, this new website can be used to place one's ancestors in a particular locality/Clan territory. The 'DNA does not lie' and to prove that one's ancestor was living in a pinpointed area requires the DNA testing of individuals with the Phillips Surname or its variants from that location.
