Watching a documentary called 'Into the Fire', and I love that science has figured out a way to find these murdering motherfuckers from the 70's and 80's who cavalierly left their DNA behind.

Rare Connections Revealed

From the Achaemenid Empire of ancient Persia to Viking warriors of Scandinavia, and even rabbinical lineages with deep spiritual legacy β€” my Y-DNA and mtDNA results uncovered rare genetic ties across continents and centuries.

Every marker is a story. Every connection, a thread in the fabric of human history.

This journey spans Baqah tribes, early Avars, Medieval Britain, and entrepreneurial bloodlines, showing how interconnected our past truly is. 🌍✨

🧬 Genetics tells the story of who we are, where we came from, and how deeply connected we all truly are. It reveals the unity of all life making every one of us part of one vast family. 🧬

You know that big surname change puzzle that I'm working on for a cousin? The Hungarian Jewish line?

I got access tonight to their parent's DNA at Ancestry. It was so exciting to see their top match (412 cM on 20 segments) validated my conclusions from the convoluted paper trail.

#OTD 9 April. Two brothers, cousins to my grandmother, shared a birthday.
Henry Martini was born in 1863, in St. Louis, Missouri.
Eugene Martini was born in Centralia, Illinois, in 1874.
Their lives were very different. Henry went into mining and eventually become a coal mine superintendents. He and his wife had 15 children and many descendants who are DNA matches.
Eugene, a retail salesman, married twice, losing a wife and daughter to early deaths. Two children grew to adulthood and one had children. So far no DNA matches to his branch have been found.

@PattyHankins @le_friwi_56 I also used DNA to solve a brickwall in my research and my family's DNA assisted an adoptee in their search for birth family. Privacy is definitely a concern. Patty is right about choosing a company wisely. Ancestry has added cost barriers, but has the largest database. MyHeritage and FamilyTreeDNA are better choices in the long term from a money perspective. But both have smaller databases of DNA testers.
