I am from Australia with Irish and English ancestry. I am with a number of fscebook and DNA companies concerning my DNA and your company name came up a few times. So I was wondering to you sell products to Austalian citizens as I was looking to learn more about other populations that I seem to be related to in some way.
Where do I begin? The results of my test exceeded my expectations. Scientifically sound, informative, thorough, and comprehensive. The report was consistent with what I've learned about my ancestry through my own research, and also offered new insights for me to explore. I also want to note that the customer service was wonderful and swift. I would recommend this company and this particular test to anyone interested in ancestry/genealogy research. Top notch. Thank you.
I found that the Cherokee and Sioux appear to be default family lore tribes, with many believing without real evidence that their family were members, and I was discouraged that might also be my situation. Depending on when and where an occurrence happened, a record may or may not exist. I have been able to confirm through documentation some my American Indian lineage. When I had the Basic American Indian DNA Fingerprint done, it revealed American Indian DNA, including mixed unregistered Cherokee. The DNA analysis will give me ideas where to look next using migration patterns. These results give me the confidence to continue the search, that family stories of Cherokee ancestry may have been more than simply folklore.
I took the DNA Fingerprint + Test and, and I didn't give DNA Consultants any information at all concerning what I already knew. When I got the results back from the Test, Susan Levin, who was the Investigator on my test, found that I was associated with the Lumbee Tribe of North, Carolina! As far as I am concerned, this test had nailed it! The Lumbee tribe has an interesting history, and remnants of several tribes left behind during the removal, came together and stayed in North, Carolina, and the tribe got its name from the Lumbee river, where they lived. I assume some Cherokees and Catawba might have been part of that group. There is even a strong indication that the Lost Colony and Virginia Dare, may have been intermarried with this tribe. Am I happy with the results of my test? You bet! I have also now read most all the books written by Donald Yates and his associates, and find the research in them to to be fascinating.
The article entitled “PORTUGAL ǀ PORTUGUESE ǀ IBERIAN” minimized the ancestral roots we have from the Moors and North African. The influence is much more than that writer claimed. He certainly looked like he had some Moorish descent. The Moors occupied Portugal for 500 years before the future first king of Portugal reclaimed it from the Moors. The Celtic history does exist here, more in northern Portugal. However, central and southern Portugal has been influenced more by other civilizations, particularly the Moors. My father is from the south, the Alentejo. Our ancestry as it is for most in that region is partly from the Moorish influence. Northern and southern regions have different influences, but it is inaccurate to say the Moors had minimal impact. Perhaps your writer shouldn’t White wash our history to make us sound more Anglo than our history suggests.
