Relatives on both my father's and mother's sides have done extensive research into our genealogy so I am not sure how much help a DNA test would be. I am pretty sure it would show some Native America and African American DNA as well as my mother's side has ancestors coming over in the 1600s to the colonies. And we now have a whole branch of Jamaican-Americans after late my younger brother married one of these about ten years ago.
