Subject: More "Not Dutch"
As many of you know, I went to DC last summer to give a presentation to
the Cooley Family Association about the DNA evidence that refutes the
Dutch Cooley claim. I created a PowerPoint presentation for the event.
PowerPoint is web-unfriendly and buggy across platforms. I've been wanting
to recreate it in flash, but the busy school year kept from it. I've just
managed to do a dozen slides or so which illustrate the central
premise--that at least four of Hamil's Dutch Cooleys had different Y
chromosomes. These individuals and their descendants could *not* have had
the same Cooley ancestor. The following slides show a slice of Hamil's
tree, color codes individuals whose descendants have tested, then re-sorts
the tree by DNA results. It runs about a half minute:

Just hit your rewind button to play it again.
There are about 100 slides in all. Most of them will translate pretty
readily to flash but some are a challenge. My aim is to end up with a ten
minute flash presentation with narration.
Oh, in case any of you missed it, Hamil also mentions Joseph Tucker Cooley
(1793-1862), who was of the Thadeus/Abraham line and whose descendants
have the Benjamin Cooley markers. That brings the count up to five
different Y chromosomes involved. Really, there is nothing about her
genealogy that can be trusted.
