I am Still Interested in What You may Know about the McDoles or McDowells

Hello,

I know I have not followed up on my pledge to write more about the children of Owen McDowell who settled in Nuckolls County, Nebraska in the late 1800's. There are descendants out there who might be able to help us with a DNA swab from this cheek.
Then we can find out which branch of the family we come from. There is an active McDowell DNA project going on. They just don't tell you much information about their results, unless you have DNA to share!

We need a format to get this information out to probable family members.I am open to suggestions. I may just try the old way of writing to newspapers in an area where relatives used to live. I have not had luck with writing letters to people whom I suspect are relatives, and then going to spend 3 days in a hotel in their area. I list the hotels phone number, in case they would like to call. 

Of course, any other descendants of Andrew McDole/McDowell are welcome to speak up!

I do stop my and look at the statistics on this blog a couple times per month. I apologize for not writing anything to let you all know that the blog has not been abandoned. Most weeks I see that someone has recently discovered this blog and read several pages. I'm glad to see there was some data her that was interesting to them. Don't be afraid to say hello and tell me who you are.

Best Wishes to Everyone,

Sharon
