I recieved my kit promptly with simple… I recieved my kit promptly with simple instructions.I was kept updated every step of the way. The color wheel is very helpful along with the percentage breakdown of my background. I shared it with my family on our family meet day and got lots of support, comments and questions on how we can keep this going to learn more about our family.😁

Answering Multiple Needs It all started with a combination of a need to digitize my old family photos, scan birth/marriage/death certificates, and find a way to illustrate the mesh of our family trees. Then came the interest in a DNA test to see what that might confirm. We have births, marriages, divorces, re-marriages, pre-mature and old age deaths, adoptions and guardianships to cover. Ancestry seemed to have it all covered, combined with the Photomyne app to simplify the photo album coverage. The hints are phenominal… just like a treasure hunt. Being able to use it across computer, tablet and phone platforms (Apple in my case) made it very versatile, and provided a great road trip exercise recently. I’m excited to reveal the findings so far to my family, that has now spread its wings across three continents. Thank you for providing an excellent tool.

Confirmed the document evidence My DNA results took much longer to arrive than I expected, so I spent those weeks filling out my family tree. When the results arrived, I felt that they affirmed what I was finding through the document evidence. I was impressed that the system estimates what portions of my background come from my paternal vs. maternal side.

Excellent DNA & Family history Excellent DNA & Family history I've used Ancestry before for family history research, but have now uploaded my tree and got my DNA. DNA was super fast, once received, less than a week to process! Am so stoked to have done DNA as it's proving very useful. Also the hints on my tree are excellent, great experience, really happy :)

Horrible experience!! Horrible experience!!! I signed up for the free trial and cancelled before the trial was up, but it never got cancelled. When I saw the charge on my credit card, I called to cancel ... they did cancel the one month they charged me...BUT refused to refund the $25 early cancellation fee. Bear in mind, this was 9 hours after the free trial period was up (when I did cancel before the free trial), which apparently never got processed.
