Before blowing cash on a DNA test, google and read this paper: "Revealing American Indian and Minority Heritage using Y-line, Mitochondrial, Autosomal and X Chromosomal Testing Data Combined with Pedigree Analysis" in the Journal of Genetic Genealogy, 6(1), 2010. Taking a test is one thing, grasping the science to understand what you might learn from the results is another. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
