Ancestry DNA Follow-Up

This is a follow-up to another post I made about Ancestry because the same patron returned to the library when her DNA result came in! We navigated to the website and eventually found where we wanted to be:

We got to a listing of regions her genes originated and also when people with DNA matches migrated across the big blue wet thing. She was quite delighted to have this information and interested to find that some regions were not as prominent as she expected, or vice versa: some regions were more prominent than she expected. All in all, a DNA study seems like a neat thing to do, but doesn’t give as much detail as I would hope unless you can pair it with a well established family history or you’re intent on developing one. Happy researching and appreciating of the insight science can provide into our history!
