Default Ancestry DNA Testing
White visiting my dad this weekend, there was an article in his local Dubuue, Iowa newspaper about people in the Dubuque area who have had their DNA tested to determine their ancestry.

My dad is quite interested in genealogy, and he thought about getting one of the tests. I am mildly interested in genealogy, but I do not have a burning desire to find out what percentage is what from my ancestry.

I have a friend who is African American who had her DNA tested a few months ago. She was surprised to find she has about 15% Scotch-Irish ancestry.

Has anyone on TOTV had their DNA tested for ancestry? Any surprises in what the test results were?
