I remember growing up in Appomattox, Virginia, and my first cousin from Richmond asking grandma, “We’re all part Indian, aren’t we?” Grandma went ballistic. I can’t ever recall her getting so worked up. Now that grandma is gone, I’m thinking of getting the test out of curiosity.

I have at least two ancestors who came over on the Mayflower, and one who was in Jamestown, my last name traces to a settler in New Netherlands in 1664, but none of those lines seem to have married aboriginal Americans. It might be fun just to try it out. My Nephew took the test, and the only interesting thing was Scandinavian/Danish. His father was Danish, so that doesn’t affect me.
