Title: Genetic Ancestry
Post by: dkerridge on 14/02/2003 20:39:54

I wonder if anyone can help me - I'm interested in mapping my geographical origins, and wondered if a test or service was available that could extract the information from my DNA ?

Obviously the results would be pretty vague, but I would be interested to know from which general groups I am descended.

Any ideas ?

Thanks,
Duncan[?]
