DNA Results

Post by thejonesboy » Fri Feb 23, 2018 9:11 pm

I got my Ancestry DNA results back.......

So I'm a typical Northern Brit. The smaller numbers show that the Romans, Vikings and French took turns controlling England way back and they're in my DNA. Through this test, I've got a list of 86 cousins to contact. The first one is definitely related going back 4 generations. Lots of investigating to do now.

Wow, someone's ancestor really got around! Just kidding, interesting. I sometimes think I would like to try this, I am mostly Irish.... however I heard that the actual true Irish people died out and we are just descendants of the people who filled in the empty space. It would be strange to discover that I'm really a Swedish person or something like that.

Interesting, I wonder how accurate it is, I think I'm just a mutt, yours seem pretty pure really.

I am scared to get mine done. I think it would turn out that I am descended from Piltdown Man and that my mother was abducted by aliens and impregnated by Doctor Spock. I am just going to have to leave it be.

Hmmm, Dr Spock, that would explain your sense of humour!

Hey thejonesboy, how did you do with your DNA info???
I am on PC some times until 3am, searching, reading and pulling my hair out trying to make sense of things.
Hope you are having better luck than me!
