[Genealib] Alex Haley's family tree expanded through DNA Study

[Tom Kemp]

USA Today (7 April 2009) is reporting that a DNA study has extended
the branches of Alex Haley's family tree.

The clue came when a "78-year-old man in Scotland named Thomas Baff,
... took the DNA test to help his daughter" who was working on the
family history.

Megan Smolenyak is credited in the article with suggesting to Chris
Haley (Alex Haley's nephew) that he participate in the DNA study.
