"Please explain. Can you now get DNA tested for ancestry?"

Yes. See the thread linked below...this is where I had mine done for $107.50 each.

The Genographic Project (Have Your DNA Checked, Find Your Roots)

Over 200,000 people have had their DNA done at the NG site.

I found out that my Dad (yDNA) was likely a Viking invader to Ireland who stayed in Ireland. My mother (mtDNA) was likely a Sa'ami (Laplander) from Finland.

"The Sami people are an indigenous people of northern Europe inhabiting Sápmi, which today encompasses parts of northern Sweden, Norway, Finland and the Kola Peninsula of Russia. Their ancestral lands span across an area the size of Sweden in the Nordic countries. The Sami people are among the largest indigenous groups in Europe. Their languages are the Sami languages, which are classified as Finno-Ugric.
