A Surprising History!
on October 10, 2017
Posted by: Edmjeff
Length of ownership:3 months
I did this with my boyfriend as a way to look into our genetic past and see if maybe we we're related to anyone famous. As it just so happened my boyfriend is a decendant of the Cheddar man and I am a decendant of Niall of the Nine Hostages. And the surprise didn't stop there. Because I am adopted I had no clue what my DNA could tell me. I found out I am a descendant of the native basque people of spain, and carry 30% native american dna linked to the ancient Anasazi of Utah. Using 23andme tools I found relatives and messaged them about my paternal line. I soon learned that I am a descendant of the spanish aristocracy and that my paternal family had been intermarrying distant relatives to keep the bloodline pure for 100's of years. Mind blown, I couldn't believe it and I am so happy. I feel like there is a whole world of history inside my genes. Thankyou 23andme!

Informative to a point

I really enjoy genealogy as a hobby and have been excited to get this factual scientific information to add to my understanding of who I am . I’ve given kits as gifts to both of my parents and although that has provided a wealth of information and a interesting mystery I’m working on solving, I find that any ancestry research really depends on the cooperation of other people who match as your DNA relatives. I enjoy answering research questions and feel like I’m really contributing when I get emails from 23 and me letting me know that my feedback has been involved in discoveries. It’s very satisfying. I also find it easy to research genetic information and then search my own raw data for insights. I’ll be gifting a kit to my twin sister soon.

I am adopted and my birth mother had a very common surname which made searching difficult. As a result of having my ancestry done with 23 and me, I was able to find first cousin matches and locate my birth mother. I've been searching off and on for years, with the matches I found her in about an hour! I finally have roots!

I wanted to get a record of possible relatives and locations, the reports gave me an understanding of how I came to be me. My reports were easy to understand and the comparison with other relatives was not hard to read.

Great Information

The information is vast and it takes a lot of concentration to understand some of what I find. Very interesting but so much of it I don't understand when I compare the info with my siblings information. Very helpful and very thorough.

I paid for my kit and received an excellent report on my ancestors as expected. In the interest of advancing medical science many extra survey questions were responded to and I assume incorporated in your data base. Are you going to offer a gift report for being part of the team?

23andMe DNA Testing is Awesome.

This is the best ethnicity DNA testing company available. I have recommended this testing to all of my friends and relatives. The ethnicity results were extremely accurate with what was known about my family history via genealogy research. Plus, I found out a few unexpected results! I have nothing negative to say about 23andMe. This test is affordable and will definitely be worth your time!
