Testimonials

Thank you so much! I'm so excited! I'm just amazed by the Akhenaten gene... that one REALLY blew me away. I love that I have these ethnicities that make me up. I look like all of them... I have brown hair but hazel, brown, green eyes. I'm short with fair skin that burns and then tans. I have the physical illnesses that native americans are prone to... I just love so much that I went with DNA Consultants first rather than go with Ancestry DNA when it came out. I don't think it was available back in 2011 when you were already up and running. I love your service, thank you so much for it!

I'm writing an extensive article about our Native American ancestry, which is a sum total of 30+ years of on and off research. Putting all the research into one article is quite a task, but it's gratifying. The DNA test results from your company are a vital part of that research, and I've even mentioned your investigators' names in my treatise! Thank you, once again, for your wonderful service to us family historians! Dan Sparta, New Jersey

I took the cherokee DNA test and found out that there wasn't a match for cherokee. My top 3 matches: (1) Saskatchewan, (2) Northern Ontario, (3) Northern Ontario First Nations Canada. I found out that my Mother's side has ojibway heritage. Thanks to DNA consultant who helped confirm this research.

I took this test and got a positive result and certificate. Does that mean I can claim to be Cherokee, or even a Cherokee descendant? NO! To quote the result: “U.S. Cherokee Admixed appears in your top world matches at rank #12. A related population, Native American-Michigan, is #2. It is thus HIGHLY LIKELY (emphasis mine) you have significant amounts of Cherokee ancestry.” Given the reality of intermarriage between nations, the match to a database of genealogically-defined Cherokee descendants and enrolled members means my ancestry could really go back to one of a dozen tribal nations. My genealogy documents descent from Croatoan/Cheraw/Lumbee individuals. This result validates my genealogy. I may find documented links to enrolled Cherokees in the future, or not. But the results have already helped me connect with individuals with the same surnames in two of the nations.

My husband is very ill, and age 60. He had always wanted to have proof of his Cherokee background, and DNA not only made this possible, but changed my husband's outlook on his entire life, at a time when nothing else had lifted his spirits. The people who work for this firm, are personal and caring and helpful in opening doors to other ways and means of discovering not only your past, but groups you can join and support available to those who share your DNA background. The cost is very reasonable and really, how can you put a price on the rewards of knowing who you really are.
