My first cousin had already done extensive research on that part of my family tree. I learned I am in part descended from a French knight, Roger the Bald, who accompanied William of Orange in 1066. I also learned with my own research that one of my great great grandmothers was a MacQueenie, which was a sub clan of Scottish Clan Ross and is now part of Clan McKinzie. Still looking to see if I am entitled to wear the Clan colors.
I was in Rostok, Germany a couple years ago and had a strange feeling that the land was familiar. Turned out another side of my family came from there.
I find all of this DNA research very interesting and it proves the fact that we are all "out of Africa".
