Seeking John W. Festervan or Andrew Jack Festervan descendants

We continue to be on a brick road with our 
ancestor John W. FESTERVAN, born Holland in ca. 1818, a/k/a Festervand, Festebaun and a jillion other ways you can think to spell his name. 





Son: Andrew Jackson FESTERVAN
born 1839-MS, died aft 1910-Claiborne LA.


Below, my Great-great-grandmother
Martha Ann FESTERVAN MARTIN BEASLEY
with her husband that my dad and others 
called "Grandpa Ike" (Isaac Elijah BEASLEY)  He was not dad's "real" Grandpa as we descend from her William W.MARTIN husband.

Festervan Martin Beasley

Because after years of searching for John W.'s parents 
and we have no clues, I am seeking a Festervan
male cousin who has the "Festervan" or other variation 
name to do the Y-DNA testing while it's on sale.

I attending the Family Tree DNA conference a week or so ago.  
On November 11, 2012, as the 8th Annual Genetic Genealogy Conference 
was coming to a close, FTDNA announced that several 
conference participants had asked when there would be a year-end sale.
In answer to that question, FTDNA announced "immediately".
See prices below. 


As we ended our 8th Annual Genetic Genealogy Conference, several conference participants asked us to start our year-end sale as soon as possible. In answer to those requests we decided to start it immediately:
