Hi. This is a fascinating post.

Do you know much about these genetic identifiers? My son's father was Greek on one side and Finnish/Swedish on the other. I am black w/a bit of American Indian and white of unknown origin (father was an orphan and might have been part black, tho he looked, and the Air Force classified him as 'white') on the other side.

Would the Sami/Finn indicators be present in my son? It would be great to have some genetic testing and see what-all we have in us, especially since I don't know my father's background.

No (lol), still learning.

I would suggest that you study DNA some and get an idea how this is done and what it covers.
There are tests that will tell you all that you want to know but you won't find it through these 'packaged' DNA sites. It'll be more detailed and more expensive to get what you want.
