CORRUPT THE ANCESTRY

Corrupt the Ancestry databases.

Find somebody with a bad health history. Freeze their spit. Nurses can easily do this.

Target people. Mail in corrupt spit with their name and address.

Forevermore, they and their descendents are tainted.
Big Corporations rarely reverse their database information.

Because it is an admission that they are wrong.

Organize a 4chan or 8chan. A small group of people collecting names and bad spit.

Change the world. Like on Fight Club, erase the debt record.

I’m at the age I don’t give a crap what people know about me.

Me, too. Old age has a few advantages.

That’s a great story

I confess.

I had large life till mid 30s all over the world with a strong focus on Latin America

I told my wife 20 something years ago there is always the possibility that could happen to me and she would need to know now I would never ever abandon or fail to acknowledge that child if it did

Good for you

A great uncle of mine had precisely that happen in England during WWII
My mom knew her cousins in England from that union in 44/45

Ancestry recently asked if you want or don't want your DNA sequence available to Law enforcement.

I checked “yes.” If any of my relatives get nailed for some felony, I have no sympathy for them.

I have a fourth cousin in Australia whom I know about only because of DNA testing. She was adopted at birth--she was conceived because her mother was raped and her mother was forced to give her up as soon as she was born. Her parents were from the same village in Europe where some of my ancestors lived. She did not know until she was 21 that she was adopted--she had fine adoptive parents but they are now deceased. A couple of years ago I and some of her other DNA matches were able to help her figure out who her birth mother was--who lived 80 miles away from her in Australia. They had a very happy reunion. She got to meet her half-sisters as well and her mother got to meet grandchildren she did not know about.

I think the biological father is dead.

A recent large medical study showed that in their cohort, 16% of in-wedlock births are not the husband's kid.
This is a brutal, terrible thing. Y'all young men watch out, especially if you are hooked up with a slutty woman.

Frances Billington, his parents, and his wife all were on the Mayflower. They are my ancestors.

Frances is featured in Rush Limbaugh’s book, “The Brave Pilgrims.” Frances was the lad who almost blew up the Mayflower.

We went for genetic testing with my wife yesterday. The genes they were looking for would not show up on an “ancestry” type system. And it isn’t cheap. But it will help design a chemo mix that could work better.

I got the sense we just moved from legos to real construction blocks.

Why?

Many men happy to become fathers.

And it is really no ones business except the couple’s.

If they are happy about it, why poke your nose in it.

If they want to know, well they can.

I’ll throw an interesting twist in this: Due to things that were discussed, I’m beginning to think that giving kids up for adoption without ever knowing their birth parents is not a good thing. There seem to be things about human physiology we don’t yet understand. There is the case of the birth mother that died in childbirth and her heart was donated to a man that needed a new heart. Afterward, an impromptu experiment was done. The baby was uncontrollably crying and nobody could comfort it until the man with the mother’s heart held the baby to his chest, and the baby stopped crying.

And in our case, my wife’s son, after meeting her for the first time in 48 years, keeps the shirt he was wearing when He hugged her after their first meeting. He says he can smell her on it and it is something he didn’t know he was craving his entire life.

I live in New England. My mom was descended from some Mayflower folks on one side, and the RI Brown clan on the other.

I found that crap to be insufferable.

But, I smile at your post because all of my mom’s family had done their genealogy as they go along. They are real quick to tell you where they “descended” from. Of course, none of them have done a damn thing in the subsequent 300 years. It’s probably better not to know this stuff until you’ve made your own way.

I learned yesterday that they cannot use DNA tests to deny health insurance. But they can deny life insurance. But, the pancreatic cancer probably cancelled that option without the Genetic testing.

Yes. My wife had a wonderful meeting with the adoptive mother. They had adopted five kids, tow from Korea.

BTW, Here’s one for you: My wife’s father was an executive for United and made all the decisions regarding the fate of the baby.

In her conversation with the adaptive mother, My wife learned that the boy had Cerebral Paulsy, but only mildly. They did think he was going to be in a wheelchair his entire life. But thanks to physical therapy, now you would never know there had ever been anything wrong. But while going to four years of Physical Therapy, the adoptive mother said that one of the doctors from Children’s Orthopedic took a special interest in the boy and would just watch his therapy sessions. He had the same last name as my wife’s maiden name.

My wife showed the adoptive mother a picture of her dad and she said, yes, that’s Dr. [maiden name].

Her father had been checking the boy’s progress during his entire four years of therapy, and maybe longer.

Hard choices for everyone.

I am the adoptive mom of four, now grown kids.

All are in contact with their birthmothers and families.
