I may be a descendant of the HOH/HAY line. Is there any DNA testing on a
direct male descendant, the Y chromosome? I am a descendant of Michael HAY,
Sr. of Ashland and Richland Counties in Ohio? He was born in Pennsylvania. A
German catechism book with his son Warren's (and others) birth is in the
privately published book 'Michael Hay and His Descendants'. I have been
trying to get one of my male HAY relatives to submit a sample, but so far no
luck. I'll keep trying.
