The results are in. My wife bought me an Ancestry DNA kit for Christmas, perhaps to settle a query as to how much local heritage I have. Knowing that on all four sides of my family my relations were born within the last 200 years, probably, not further away from where I live in the Colchester area, Middlesex and Cambridgeshire there was always a question as to whether my family jumped the English Channel in 1066. The results are as expected except an indication of Norwegian or Swedish heritage.
I don't usually share personal history on this blog, but know that family historians look by and might be interested in this topic.
Do please share any comments you have about DNA testing. We are interested here to learn from those who have done the test, not the outcomes of paternity suits.
