Do you know where the farm was located?

Their hometown in Connecticut. I forget the name, it's here somewhere. Milford I think.

Jeff, you may have answered this in the thread before but were you the person who got familial DNA from the cousins? Seems like i remember someone did that. Any updates on that?

One of them agreed to do it, yes. Ross' cousin who lives in FL and was a police officer. We contacted the Riverside Police Department and they didn't do anything. We contacted producers of the show and they didn't do anything. We even made contact with someone from (I think) Napa Police, they didn't do anything. I haven't spoken to them in a while. They were pretty mad when nothing happened after the show aired.

I have contact information for Timothy's surviving son, but am afraid of contacting him. I didn't finally speak to someone I thought might have been the Terry Kennedy who lived with Ross in 1967, he lived in California, was the right age and had some relationship with a woman named Cindy Kennedy. I was really hopeful, but it turned out not to be him.

Morf is in contact with Detective Terry Poyser of Vallejo PD. I don't know if Vallejo is interested in Ross as a Zodiac suspect, but it might be worth contacting them about the DNA?

Morf, if Jeff agrees then could you forward the DNA offer to Det Poyser? He took a DNA sample from George Saxberg's daughter, based on her suspicions about her father, so I am optimistic he would be interested in the offer from Ross Sullivan's relative.

Just have the cousin enter his DNA profile into Gedmatch. Sounds like you're over-thinking it.
