I am wondering if any FReepers had unexpected results when they did a DNA test during a family History search.
In my case I was looking for an oppressed history of serfdom and general nastiness from Norman Overlords during the Middle Ages, just preparing for an Obama America.
To my surprise I discovered we were Normans, in the Staple, Merchants, and in general capitalists, until God and Religion brought us unto this Blessed Shore to continue in the same trades.
So in this election year of the usual Freeper cage fights I thought to step outside the blood and gore of FReeper politics and speak of Family History.
I am a direct descendent of Catherine the Great.
Just sent ours in. Since I’m adopted this should be interesting.
I am a descendant of Adam and Eve.
I came from peasants and I’m still a peasant.
Where do you send the DNA to to get a family history result?
I am a direct descendent of Harry Tick.
He was impaled on a stake and added to a collection during the Inquisition.
I looked up my family tree and found out I was the sap.
Ohhhhh!
My family was run out of every country in Europe.
I think ancestry.com
I am wondering why some one would submit their DNA to any one....IMO wow talk about a security boondogle
Ancestry.com does it. I think there are others as well.
My Daddy died dancing...at the end of a rope.
I guess I would like to know as well, but the last thing I want finding its way into the public domain is my DNA.
Ancestry.com is what we used. It’s in American Fork, Utah.

I’ve a line to Katherine Swynford nee DeRoet who married John of Gaunt and to every English monarch since. That, and Two-Fifty, will get me a cup of coffee anywhere.

You can send it to me, and I’ll write you up a nice pedigree.
Give me a hint on how you think the twig was bent, and so shall lean your family tree. :-)
(And for your sample, please send HAIR. Off your HEAD. No bodily fluids! Yuck.)
Obama’s results were no surprising - he is a direct decendant of Maria Scianna
