Curious to know if Radiation treatments or Cancer drugs harm or change a person's DNA sample?

I do not know the answer for sure but reading these articles (lots more online) they seem to imply that the answer is yes

However, if you have a specific concern I would suggest emailing the company you may wish to test with and see what advice they can give
James Stott c1775-1850. James was born in Yorkshire but where? He was a stonemason and married Elizabeth Archer (nee Nicholson) in 1794 at Ripon. They lived thereafter in Masham. If anyone has any suggestions or leads as to his birthplace I would be interested to know. I have searched for it for years without success. Thank you.
