Ancestry

 

With $65. and a bit of saliva, I approached the Ancestry DNA folks to check on my family tree. The initial report indicated the following roots:

Ireland  - 77%

Scotland - 21%

Norway - 2%

This confirms that those Vikings left their fjords and planted some seeds in Erin. I am still sorting out the second and third cousins, but so far have not found any horse thieves in my background. This beats traipsing thru cemeteries in the rain. tjs

  1. You've now put yourself in a database for law enforcement to make connections to those horse thieves, or murderers, or other notorious far-flung felons who might be vastly separated members of your family tree. See you on HLN's Forensic Files maybe.
