I joined because im adopted and interested in both my own health and my childrens health.
I like the feature of being able to see the link between myself and other relatives ... parent/grandparent/great grandparent/etc.
I also like no monthly membership fee which i cant afford.

I was adopted at birth 63 years ago .I only had bits of information on my birth mother and an older sister.A last name and city only. I bought the kit as a last resort to try and find my mother whom i knew was at best aging fast and an older sister whom I had never met..Because of 23 and me .I have found my sister Penny and 6 more brothers and sisters,aunts ,uncles ,cousins all who had been searching for the one sister that was given away.

I'm so glad my daughter gave me this for Christmas. It has been a wonderful experience in getting to know cousins I never knew. It was really a shock to see that I have so many relatives. Thank you.

Thank you for your feedback. DNA Relatives locates other 23andMe members that match your DNA. This feature estimates a predicted relationship and range using the length and number of segments and percent DNA shared. When two people share identical segments of DNA, this indicates that they share a recent common ancestor.
You can locate any new relatives within your DNA Relatives list by clicking on the "Sort by" box and choosing "Newest Relatives".
You can locate the DNA view of DNA Relatives here: https://you.23andme.com/tools/relatives/dna/

Length of ownership:6 months
I have done my family in America back to the first Jamestown settlers & thought most of them came from England but to my surprise most came from Western Europe . In America they were farmers , fishermen , light house keepers, Royal Governers, Signer of Declaration of Independence , Secretary of State , Burgesses & on to England with King Henry the 8th ... I guess the most surprise was that I had ancestor that was a Neanderthal!!! Crazy !! Pat
