A Call For Genealogy DNA Success Stories

We are in the process of publishing a free digital book about Genealogy DNA Testing about some of the success stories our readers have sent in, and we would like to include your success story!  This free book will be given away to subscribers to our Newsletter / Mail List here on www.GenealogyDNA.com.

We know that some of you have used DNA testing to prove parentage, to show how you match up to distant cousins with scientific proof to your ‘Most Recent Common Ancestor’ (MRCA), and even to prove how you descend from various early history and prehistoric groups of humans that came out of Africa.

We want to hear your story.  Send it to us through the use of the ‘Contact’ tab on this page and we will consider it for publication.  You must identify yourself to us as the author and verify that the story is true.  You have the right to request that your name and identification is not used in our final ebook and we will respect that right.

We know that some of you have used Genealogy DNA Testing to prove or disprove one or both of your birth parents in cases of adoption.  These are emotional stories that all genealogists can understand, and we invite you to share yours.  Some states have open adoption records and birth parents and adoptees have the right to discover their natural parents.  Some states seal all adoption records and it is impossible to discover the true birth parents.  DNA testing is often the only method that is able to help solve this mystery.

Some of you have used Y-DNA testing to discover your surname connection to an early proven immigrant to America in the 17th century.  When genealogy studies have brought the male lines down to modern day times, and then the various male surname branches are DNA tested, you can prove or disprove the connection to the immigrant ancestor.  We want to hear your story about this and any type of DNA results that you have achieved.

Send us your mtDNA stories that show your mother’s umbilical line to the earliest known ancestors and their migration group.  If you have discovered distant cousins through the use of autosomal DNA testing, also known as ‘Family Finder’, please submit those stories as well.

We will not accept anonymous entries.  You must identify yourself to us no matter what, or we will not even consider it for publication.  To all persons that send in their stories you will have our never ending thanks.  To those of you that send in stories that we select to publish we will be sending you a nice gift, one that you will really appreciate for sure.

Our goal is to have these DNA success stories ready for publication by the end of July, so please send them in now and reserve your spot in being able to share your results with our readers.  Oh and by the way, if you have been tested and have received less than stellar proof, please by all means, let us know that also.  If we use your story you will recieve a nice free gift.

Thank you
