DNA Information Page

Dear Descendants:  I'm wondering if we should ask Marc to consider establishing a DNA page for our group.  We could post whatever DNA-related info we desire and include pertinent information on sites, testing, costs, results and so on.  
I had my mt-DNA (German female Knutzen line) done in July at 23&me and am in the somewhat rare K2a haplogroup.  I've recently contacted one of our Knutson cousins (95 years old and a direct male descendant of Knud Thygesen Naas who is about to take the Y-DNA test provided by Family Tree.  
Of course, the value comes over time as more of our direct Knutson male descendants volunteer some spit/cheek swabs.  
Below is the Knutson site at World Families.  Check out the 1750 Anders Knutson born near Kragerø, Telemark, Norway.  Yvonne
