So true - I'm certainly not who I thought I was! Despite the warnings that I might not like what I found, I wanted to break down a brick wall with DNA testing. Having identified a likely ancestor on paper who belonged to a well established tree with some exciting people on it (like a Cavalier supporter of King Charles II), I got a descendant from that tree and one of my own male cousins to test. And they weren't even in the same haplogroup. So, barring non-paternal events, it's back to the drawing board. On the other hand DNA proved my mother's surname must link to a well researched large tree of the same name, but I still can't find the paper trail to connect them. I had begun to think her ancestor must have been illegitimate, but now I think the illegitimacy might be on my father's side. So DNA has completely turned my ideas upside down, but it's better to know!

Some of your ancestors will be Saxon and some of them will be Celts.
