Yes Koko,



I've done some family research but haven't done much for some years now.

It might have been someone else who prompted me to recommend a book called 7 Daughters of Eve, which, while heavy going in parts for the non academic types like me, is a great read.

Through the amazing technology related to DNA, a theory has been developed, that through mitochondrial DNA, which is only carried down through the female of our species, the entire human species can be tracked back to one woman.

The book is: The Seven Daughters of Eve" by Bryan Sykes.

If anyone is interested.

the entire human species can be tracked back to one woman.

Would that be a reference to : EVE ' as in Adam and Eve........??

Clay, I think that's just a play on words or tongue in cheek. It's certainly not a religious book.

Good one Koko ........it seemed to be serious at first glance .............Smilies still won't work for me ..........LOL

Sorry, Clay, I meant the title :7 Daughters of Eve, is kind of a play on the original Eve. The book is a serious scientifically based book and very interesting.

Thanks Koko..............Smiley for you ...........LOL
