John's line needs a/another participant in the RUNCIMAN Surname DNA Project. Check out the Wanted! page for further information.Summary
DNA: It currently seems unlikely that we will find a direct male line Y-DNA candidate for the RUNCIMAN DNA project to dis/prove any connections to other lines, but possibly there are descendants around who might consider a FamilyFinder test to see what connections that shows.16Links
