30th: Patriarchs updates

There's been a rather long overdue update to the patriarchs page of the DAWE Surname DNA project to include a few more of the Devonshre DAWE families:
- the Buckland Monachorum tribe of Sampson and Joan (BLANCHARD) DAWE,
- an inter-related William and Johanna (HUNT) DAWE of Blackawton.
and
- the family of John & Grace (BEAL) DAWE of Pyworthy/Stoke Damerel.

All families still need direct male line DAWE/DAW representatives.

The pedigrees shown are by no means complete, just outlines showing some of the lines more likely to produce representatives.
Love to hear from you.

6th: Devonshire DAW rep co-opted

Third kit ordered, we have a rep. from Isaac the miller's line at last, although more from other lines of descent would still be good as more than one rep. is needed to confirm a dna fingerprint.
The Patriarchs page has been updated as a result (to reduce some of the clutter now that a rep has been found for one line).

Also updated the DAWE wanted page with the names of a couple of Devonshire lineages that it would be good to get representatives for (trees to follow).

28th: Patriarchs updated

Patriarchs page updated to show the relationships between the newly dna matched participants.
As can be seen, we now have a good dna signature for the Newfoundland branch with two distinct, distant lines represented.
All that's needed now are several representatives of assorted Devonshire branches to provide a good match.

27th: Portal Pages updated

Check out the DAWE introductory page.
Although we only have one participant in this project so far, time will presumably remedy that.
John would very much like to match his Newfoundland DAW family to their presumed English roots, either Dorset or Devon being favoured.
There must be some English DAW(E) descendants who are interested in helping us determine where/how the assorted DAWE families link up.

So far, I've only included my main line, that of Isaac DAWE and Sarah SMITH, under the WANTED! page.
When time permits I will add a couple of other Devon families that also connect in various ways.
