About us - Your Thompson DNA
Project Co-Administrators:
Please note: The
Thompson DNA Project co-administrators are volunteers and do not work for
Family Tree DNA, DNA Heritage, Relative Genetics, or any other testing company. We do not
receive commissions or compensation of any kind. We volunteer because
we care about Thompson genealogy, and we want to help you use DNA results to
help make genealogical connections.
