AncestryDNA

AncestryDNA is the newest of the DNA registries. It is available to users with accounts on Ancestry.com. It is a saliva test and takes eight weeks to return results.

Advantages:

  • Everyone on this website has an interest in genealogy and may be able to offer insight as to where you fit in the family tree
  • Offers insight to ancestral origins
  • Tests entire genome so more relative matches can be made
Disadvantages:
  • Cost: $99 plus an ancestry.com membership
  • Must be an ancestry.com member to purchase this test and access results
My Story: I recently purchased this test and I am currently waiting on my results. I will be sure to keep you all posted on what I find!

    Thanks for running your blog, many other donor conceived people ask me which tests to use. It is nice to see someone write it down in this fashion so that it can be used as a resource.
