I did it. No real surprises. My family has traced much of our ancestral tree back to Europe on many different branches. According to the Census records, that we know about, I am about 0.40% Native American from a many great Grandmother. (Yeah jfruser, that is very close to 0%, I have no clue if the records are correct because people didn't just start lying and there was a tax advantage to marrying an indian at the time. I have never claimed to have native american heritage, even though I can knapp a pretty mean arrowhead) That small of a % wouldn't be likely to show up anywhere in a DNA test and it didn't surprise me that it didn't. The DNA test did show up some relatives that would have been very difficult to find any other way. I was very surprised that those relatives were located and the relationship correctly identified. I did find out that a twin brother that I always thought was fraternal is actually identical. Ancestry thinks my children and his children are siblings...and that we are the same person. There is something to this DNA test that is very accurate.

This brings to mind that old joke where a guy sends in a mix-n-match sample to the miracle diagnosis urine test lab and the results come back:
1. Your wife has the clap.
2. Your 13 year old daughter is pregnant.
3. Your son is gay.
4. Your dog has fleas.
5. If you quit jacking off so much your tennis elbow will clear up.

gott mine done with 23 and also ancestry. they were very near identical in results. of course, courthouse lawyers use dna results also.
have got far less american indian than the stories go, especially on my mom's side. the results just weren't there, except a trace.
have got a little over 1200 distant cousins. i know some 6 of the total listing. and so it goes.
have some close cousins adopted under closed records. we have to believe the dna or not.

No, have not done it. Do not intend to.
Sometimes one hears of interesting results where brothers discover they are only half, or fathers discover 20 + year old kids are really not theirs. Surprises abound! Do you really wish to surprised?

I paid 23andme.com a hundred bucks to run my DNA. Worth every penny. I am primarily Irish, Scottish, and Welsh, with some German and Danish. Also, I am a little more Indian than Elizabeth Warren, I am one tenth of one percent Indian. Also, to my delight, I am 3 percent Neanderthal, and I have some of the highest Neanderthal DNA ever tested for. Here is my family get-together in back in the cave in Scotland in 43,341 BC. I am the kid right front with the rock. We had such a wonderful Christmas that year.

i did the ancestory.com test and the results pretty much confirmed what i knew. which was exhaustive research going back to about 800a.m. in northern germany, scotland, and croatian/slovakian. it did give me some contacts in scotland which i would have not known about.

My saintly skydiving Mom, fervently identifying as a Brit, always made fun of the Irish. Got my DNA results in, 79% Irish from County Cork, means my Mom has to be at least 58% Irish too 19% English from the Midlands, 2% Swedish.

I got results and then they updated those results and changed all of my percentages, eliminating many of the original claims. Mostly Irish and Welsh with some French. First reading included a bunch of Italian and they revised that to zero. they relied heavily on relatives, obviously.

One brother did it, he also gave as Christmas gifts to both parents. All three shared their results with my other brother and myself.
I am GTG........without giving anything out. Changed their lives and yours knowing didn't it.. NOT... I have NO clue what the purpose of this is. And if I dont know some of my relatives, seems like a GOOD thing to me.

I must say, in the past several years I have heard about some 25 year old gal, calling up some 60 year old guy, who she had never spoken to before, and saying "Hello, Daddy!"
I must say I am a prime candidate for that, but so far it has not happened to me.
