Finding out about my maternal line.

I was very curious as to where and what my Maternal line DNA is and where we come from on my grandmother's side. My grandmother was adopted, so we never really knew anything about her back ground of ethnic make up. We were always told she was Native American from her mother and did not know anything about her dad. So needless to say this has definitely been an eye opening experience. I am still praying I will meet somebody on here that is related to me through my grandmother. There are two men who are very much related to me, but sadly never answer my request. It is frustrating not really knowing who you are. I wish my grandmother were alive so she would have had the opportunity to know where she's from and it's awesome she is from, The Berber people of North Africa, The Basque in Spain, we are related to Yu Hong, and the Cheddar man of England. I think deep down inside of all of us, there is a need to know who are we. Where did we come from. I wish my dad were alive so I could know where all his family originated from as well. Know lots of stories and theories but would have liked to have some DNA proof. So it's been interesting and has me and mom rubbing our heads a little. But that's the beauty of DNA. Also many years ago, 3 of my cousins were diagnosed with hemophilia and I had to be tested and my son, because the mother carries this to her children. I remember the doctor asking me were we Scandinavian and I was like no. Because I didn't know. But now I do know we are, and was wondering why did he ask me that question. I have been very happy with the results and it's awesome.

Have purchased two kits. Your web site is a trial, though. Glacial response! Can someone look into why the site is so slow? I'm also not convinced that messages are always getting through to people with whom I'd like to share information. But, I rarely visit the page because it is so sloooow.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I like being able to look at my reports and over 1000 relatives. I just wish other people would have their pictures and share. Isn't that a main reason to do this? To find people and share.

I have found the DNA medical results and DNA relatives interesting and helpful. Many of us truly don't understand our general health issues we inherited because our older generation did not discuss issues and everyone died of old age! I have been a member since 2013 and have made several family connections outside the U.S. plus learned much about my genetic health. I have found 23andme to be everything I expected and wanted for my personal use. YES, I have given the product to family members as a gift!

23andMe Review

I am really glad I got my DNA with the Medical portion. I like how 23andMe compares my DNA to my relatives. The Neanderthal % is also very interesting. I also find the medical results informative and like that I am contributing to research to see how our DNA could make us more prone to certain diseases. I have recommended this test to everyone interested in testing their DNA.

Fun and Frustrating!

It's been really fun finding out all the information 12andMe offers. My only frustration is with all my relatives who did not list a name but prefer to stay anonymous. I am not sure why they chose to do this but now I have many unnamed DNA relatives and I still don't know who they are.
