Have any of you done the DNA thing with Ancestry.com? If so, have you been happy with the results. I was wondering if enough people have done it to make if worth the money to do it-- I mean -- did it help you discover new links in your family tree? Thanks!

I got my brother to do it for me. I had 100% match and a number of matches below that. I got in touch with the 100% match and we are in the process of trying to figure out how we are related. Send quite a few e-mails out and some of them responded back to me and others, so far, haven't responsed to my note. I don't regret having put the money out for the DNA test to be done. Just like a brick wall - sometimes you get over it and sometimes you don't, but later down the road you could fine someone who will get you that piece of info that will put you over the brick wall. I'm now thinking about having the DNA for females done for myself. You never know what I might find. Good luck with your results - if you decide to do it.
