Has anyone else done any DNA tests and found anything shocking? For us, my wife never knew her birth father. He was with her mother for about 1 year and left her when she became pregnant. For 25 years we’ve looked for him and his family and never had any success. Then, last Christmas on a whim we did DNA tests for everyone. We had all but forgotten about looking for her bio-father but things got interesting when the results came in. We found cousins from 2grand-parents (paternal) that she’d never heard of, and now we’ve found her father was one of 2 men who’s names are NOTHING like what her mother told her. Its been an interesting time to say the least, but every time someone new pops up that’s not related to her mom’s brother (who is on the ancestry DNA list), then we know its from her paternal side and we get closer and closer. Well, today, the other side of that coin happened, a girl who popped up as my wife’s first cousin (half cousin), reached out to us and found out that the man who raised her was not her real father. I know its got to be sad and traumatic for the young girl, we told her we will be praying for her.
Golden State Killer today – Elvis tomorrow
Did you see the headlines – Law Enforcement used evidence from a DNA genealogy website to track and capture the Golden State Killer. The future is now, but Elvis is still out there!

SO these ancestry sites make more money by selling the DNA to law enforcement sites________________
No, the site used was Gedmatch.com, which is a free, open-source site where anyone can upload their DNA results. For example, I used Ancestry, and my mother’s cousin used 23 and me. If we both upload to Gedmatch, we can compare results________________———My Facebook http://www.facebook.com/theB3
