Another Relative Found!
on November 7, 2018
Posted by: Moab Judy
from Moab, UT
Length of ownership:6 months
In March 2018 my son I gave up for adoption in 1965 found me through his daughter finding my daughter on 23andMe. It's been the blessing of my Lifetime to finally see, meet, hug, and tell him how much I have yearned for THAT moment.
THEN...In September 2018 I received an email from 23andMe regarding a close DNA match that said I was a 1st cousin to this person!. It took a few minutes to go through my parents' families to realize that I was in contact with a girl who was given up for adoption in 1955 whom I had been made aware of by the person I had told about my son in the mid 1980s. After numerous emails this "girl" came to visit me just two weeks ago and what a wonderful 3 days it was!!! She joined 23andMe in June 2018 with the desperate hope that she would find her biological family, so thank you AGAIN, 23andMe, for the second time this year for helping to add to my family genealogy! Thank you so so much.

Found lost cousin

from Ca
Length of ownership:1 year or longer
I absolutely love 23 and me!!!
My cousin and I were able to find her sister who was given away as a baby.
I was also able to show my Dr. I needed a higher strength medicine because I metabolize it at a fast rate. I am also tracing my ancestry.

Getting to know myself
on November 29, 2018
Posted by: Cyndid1
from NEW JERSEY
I received 23&Me as a gift and it has been wonderful. The health reports have been very enlightening and family connections alone are worth everything. I am truly grateful for the family connections. Many adoptees are finding biological family members and are no longer "lost". This, again, I have experienced. Thank you for the information and the connections to my families.

Ethnicity Results
on September 12, 2020
Posted by: Cuban Chris
from Washington
Length of ownership:1 year or longer
For the most part, I'm satisfied with my results. However, as time has gone on and my ethnicity results have updated, my percentage of "Unknown" has gotten larger. I would think that with advancements in technology it would be getting smaller, more refined. I'm looking forward to the next update. I'm hopeful for more accurate results.
One other thing, the percentages of "Broadly" need to go away in my opinion. It's 2020, figure it out.
I do like the health reports. They are quite informative.

Found Family
on November 4, 2020

from Nebraska, USA
Length of ownership:1 year or longer
Coming from a broken home with absent parents I never knew my family, or even knew who any of my family members were. 23 and me matched me with members of my family that I never even knew exsited. It provided me with comfort to know, 1) I'm not alone, and 2) my family had also wondered what happened to me. I'm thankful for 23 and me. Just knowing helps so much.

I was not sure of Home23andme. I was in my late 50yrs old. I was abandoned by both parents. I had found my mother and had an awsome relationship. I had about about 10yrs spent with her. And I meet all my siblings on her side. I was so happy with the results so I went to my next step search for my Father I got to meet him he never got me connected to hid side of the family.I had given up of his family. Again one day I said I’m going in search my fathers side. Well never give up. Well guess what I found my FAMILY ON MY FATHERS SIDE.I FOUND ONE AUNT and now I found more sibling so happy and my father passed away. I feel blessed to have used 23andME I recommend to anyone it work. Thank you 23ANDME. IM 60yrs old and I’m still finding family. THANK YOU - THANK YOU AND GODS BLESSINGS FOR 23ANDME.

I found a 1st Cousin!!!
on September 25, 2022
Posted by: EmmaGS
from New York, NY
Length of ownership:1 month
I did not expect to find anyone. I wasn't even looking. But now I have a new first cousin, and it's thrilling! I also found out I am related to people all over the globe, and if we lived in different times, I'd want to travel and meet them all - what a wonderful idea! To have relatives everywhere even though I can trace myself back to Philadelphia PA-born grandparents on both sides. Apparently before that, mayhem! This is very exciting to me! Try it! It was thrilling!
