Royal Blood: Tracing Kathy's DNA back to England

Kathy had previously taken a DNA test with MyHeritage but was puzzled by the results. She discovered many fairly close relatives in England, which didn’t make sense given her French family background. Wanting to validate her family tree and find answers, she reached out to us. Our research revealed a surprising truth—her great-grandfather wasn’t who she thought he was. This newly uncovered ancestor had deep English roots, leading Kathy on a DNA trail through some of Europe’s most prominent royal families.

The search for Henry's father: Discovery in America

Henry from Victoria, Australia, had never known his father’s identity. At 75, he decided to take a series of DNA tests and reached out to us to help uncover his ancestry. Through our research, we identified two distant cousins who had also taken DNA tests, leading to five more strong matches for Henry. But the biggest surprise? His father wasn’t Australian, as he had always believed. Instead, his journey of discovery took him from Melbourne all the way to Oregon and Virginia in the USA.
