Its something I have considered doing a few times over the past few years. After reading the previous posts, some positive and others negative I would still consider it 'just in case' as the conclusion would be of no harm even if not totally correct and a good talking point at family gatherings etc.

Ancestry DNA
I personally found it to be one of the most interesting things I have done, as well as showing you where your Ancestors came from it links you up to others all over the World who have similar DNA. I now have contact with 299 Cousins I didn't know existed and have traced many Ancestral Lines back to the 15th Century, with Documentation to prove they are my Family...

Oh gosh yes, some extremely sad and others just normal life experiences. One particular find involved Slave Trade and disgusted me, so much wealth and large properties accumulated through the misery of others. I can walk around my City and still see some of these buildings now, not a nice experience....
I can see a nice Sculpture dedicated to some Coal Miners killed in an explosion, one was my Grt, Grt Grandfather, that is nice to see. Also in a Maritime Museum I found lots of info: and a Photo of my Grandfather who was on the Lusitania when it sank... It's was definitely an interesting journey and much more to discover from Ancestry... I would recommend it to anyone.

Hello
For me it was interesting. I grew up raised Scottish on my Dad's side of the family but my Grandmother on my Mom's side (while she so got on with my Dad) she always said there was a "Nig...." in the woodpile on his side of the family. I grew up thinking OK my DNA is going to show Black in the family line. That is not what that saying meant in the times she used it. It was to say that there was a lie or secret in the family ancestry line.
When I got me DNA results back there was NO Scottish ties there, but there was a strong England connection made. It made a lot of sense as when my Aunt went to run the Family Tree she hit a wall with my Dad's side. She was only able to take it back to an event in the family where things stopped to line up.
This event was where a branch of the family line was literally hung from the tree on the property they owned for "craft work". From there the Scotland seemed to come in. Like there was a move there but no acestry blood lines there.
I have had past lives in England that I have been able to validate so that connection to the blood line so makes sense to me. I do feel my Grandmother as she was very psychic but never talked on it knew that lie.
It was interesting getting my Daughter's done as there was a Scandinavian line there that so fit her "body shape". That is on her Dad's side.
When Heart had his done his the first time never came back, so we re sent it in again and I think it was because they could not figure out his result the first time. He comes in 97 percent British, this is very rare, with the other 3 percent being Icelandic so that land bridge crossing. Very rare. This means that there was not a lot of offpring in his family line and not much intermingling from the area he was born in.
