Hello Mike, > Last Saturday in the UK I took up both the AncestryDNA & FTDNA Family Finder (black Friday) discount offers (same price with UK postage) My AncestryDNA kit arrived today, I will let you know when the FTDNA > Family Finder kit arrives. If you are in the UK my expectation (and experience) is that Ancestry will be quicker (they do their testing in Ireland whilst FTDNA are based in Houston, Texas) but once the tests are done the resources available to you are different and potentially each is useful in its own right. Regards Peter
