DNA matching

[Simon G.]

The problem with this kind of things surely would be though, if you go back far enough you'll find you're related to approximately one-third of the people on the planet anyway.  It's not yet at the stage where you can pin-point which exact ancestor you shared with a person, so really you need to have a good theory based on hard research to start with...so you may ask what is the point really, 'cause really you may not be any the wiser after splashing out your money than you were before.

I see your point Somon G., but when you hit a brick wall it is well worth a try. At least I would know if my family did have anything to do with this other family that I think that I am connected to.
I thought that people would be more eager - perhaps I am wrong.
Plus the pound is doing great against the dollar at the moment!
