Join the Rutledge mail list – a GREAT group! To join, write an e-mail to Rutledge-L-request@rootsweb.com and in the subject line and body of your message, put the one word – subscribe – and nothing else. Having problems with traditional proof of your line? Try DNA! There is a nice RUTLEDGE DNA Surname Project site at http://12.212.193.121/FamilyTree/DNA_Project/index.html - please check it out! You might like to take the DNA test just to verify your traditional proofs as well. I have done that with our Martin line and it's wonderfully satisfying to have the genetic proof that you were RIGHT in your research. :-)
