So many people died thinking they took their secrets to the grave 😂😂😂 I don't know why this is so funny. Who would have thought that their grandkids or great grandkids would unearth their most intimated secrets and parade them on TV. This is like the biggest "in your face" ever.

The reason a woman took her husband's surname, was so her children were acknowledged as under his protection, whether they were his or not. If you wish for greater accuracy in finding a great-great ancestor, I advise going through the female line.

Nancy do not feel bad. I love my father with all my heart. After his death I decided to take a DNA test. Because I had talk to him once before I look nothing like my brothers and sisters. And he told me that I didn’t need a DNA test that I was his father and that was it and made me promise not to take one until after his death. He basically answered the question for me because there was doubts. And once I took the test it was confirmed he was not My biological father but he was my father.

My friend’s husband took a test and found out he was adopted. He was heartbroken since his parents never told him. His birth parents do not want to meet him- even though he is a highly successful person who has his own beautiful children (their bio grand kids).

You’re 100% right. I’ve been working on my genealogy since the late 70s. Had everything so nicely confirmed on paper, until 2 years ago when my uncle showed up on my DNA matches as a half uncle. Confirmed with a separate cousin that both of them share DNA matches with the family I thought was mine, while I shared no matches to that family. What hurt the most was deleting that part of my family tree. An entire family I thought was mine, to be replaced with names and faces I had never heard of before. DNA doesn’t lie though.

The big sales push for these tests is for people to discover their "ethnicity". That is garbage; the guarantees that come with the tests state that they are for entertainment purposes only and the ethnicity percentages can be +- 50%. What is real and accurate about the tests are the matches the company discovered with other of their customers, and that is how people find out that their parents are not always straight with them (or indeed, in the dark about their parent's statements about the family). I'm happy that this report chose not to talk about the ethnicity junk but cut to the chase. And what the gentleman says about having to pursue your ancestry by paper trail is true. The paper trail can show you who your ancestors were - the DNA test can confirm or deny, but doesn't name names. Locations like ancestry hope people will use the tests as a springboard for wanting to learn about their genealogy. It appears to me that about 90% get 15 minutes of "entertainment" out of the report, and then abandon the test, the company and their own genealogical investigations without a backward thought. A pair of movie tickets would provide a cheaper and longer-lasting Friday evening.
