    3. Warren All these tests are expensive and after my Ancestry test I did wonder if it was worth the trouble. They told me I was Rather a large number of strange people got in touch with me as they had a distant relationship discovered by their DNA testing. One Canadian, however, was related to me distantly through my paternal Scottish grandparents. No-one turned up with an Indian connection, and I already knew that I had a small percentage of Indian DNA (in fact I mentioned India when I applied). I gave up for a while and then I heard that the Familysearch tests were reliable, so have applied for a mtDNA test, hoping that I would at least find out which part of India my maternal 3xGt Grandmother came from. Yes, it is expensive, and I may not get anywhere at all, as far as an Indian connection is concerned, but I'll let you all know if it is any help. Has anyone found a DNA test useful for Indian ancestors?
