Don't we all come from one person in Africa?

Is it your DNA or a male relation that you are sending?

Mine, and it does both male and female lines.....so it says, we shall see. I thought it only did one line, although I don't know why that should be so.

Well that's a bit more interesting....I'd still like it to tell me who is related to me. Is there an Ancestry tree/database or something you can compare with others and see who shares your genes and is related more locally?

I think that is what it is supposed to do, but it depends on people doing the test. I would like to be Italian, but very much doubt it will be anywhere near that specific. Have had an email to say the test kit is on its way.
I'm quite dead excited.

Kit arrived, deed done, and ready to be sent back today. I do so hope I won't be disappointed with the amount of info I receive back.

Trace the family fortune
Ever wonder where the family money went? Find out in the Scottish Probate Calendar, 1876 – 1936, our most important Scottish record release.

This is a unique opportunity to get a sneak peek into the value of the family estate and how it was divided between spouses

No Scots in my lot. Bet Maureen would be interested though. I'm sure she had a few
