    1. [INDIA] Genetic testing - surprises
    2. Anthea Tillyer via
    3. Hi listers DNA testing can yield wonderful surprises as well as confirmation of one's knowledge or theories. In my case, I found out that I am (distantly) related to my husband of 40 years! Another surprise was 1% Chinese! I am pretty sure that is from my 5X g-grandmother, who was half Dutch (father) and half Portuguese/Malacca Island native. As others have noted, the revelation of East Asian ancestry is not always greeted with pleasure by one's relatives. Mine are having a huge range of reactions, from fascination to determined denial. Test on! Anthea Tillyer
