It is my understanding that women can only get results for their mother's side of the family. My Algeo line is my mother's side.
My father is gone. As well as his brothers, so I asked a male cousin to swab for the DNA on Dad's side. He was happy to agree.
There is a DNA Button at the top of the page on ancestry. Just click that to read further info. I was hooked after I watched the new show "Who do you think you are?" on Emmit Smith the football player. Google the show and watch his episode. It will show you a bit more of what you can expect. We can then then see if we on the Algeo message board are related. If we have come from one Algeo, or different Algeo men. Maybe id we are from Ireland or from Italy! I just don't know what it will show. But, I am excited.
