Winnaruz Posted April 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2017 I would like to add that my 2 closest matches are both originally from Richfield Sevier county Utah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeuroTypical Posted April 25, 2017 Report Share Posted April 25, 2017 Hi Winnaruz, I did the familytree DNA mouth swab test thing too. Pretty fascinating! Is there a group for your family name? You'll probably have better luck connecting with folks that way, then by posting names here. I have a group on the familytree website that puts me in touch with ever dna match person, who has given their info and consents to be contacted. I find this stuff fascinating. Looks like you do too!

Wouldn't a saliva test just show the dna of everyone who licked you? (or are you not a cookie in real life?)

If you only swabbed your mouth, you'll get results from the cane or the beet family pam and Sunday21 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be careful, those ham readings may be coming up from someone else's saliva. Have you kissed a ham recently?? pam 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen it in my family tree, where a man died, leaving several wives and 20+ children. The youngest children, left without a father to provide, were raised in other families. Some of my family roots go back to Richfield. The family in the case above, were in Holden (50 miles from Richfield).
