Okay, so, this has nothing to do with health or fitness but my MFP friends are great and I'm hoping someone has experience with this. Thanks in advance guys!
"Uses autosomal DNA (inherited from the mother and father, four grandparents, eight great-grandparents, etc.) to provide you a breakdown of your ethnic percentages and connect you with relatives descended from any of your ancestral lines within approximately the last 6 generations."
I'm curious to know if anyone here has tried a Genealogy DNA test? Most say they can go back at least 6-8 generations. They're pricey so I'm curious to hear from personal experiences.
