DNA is only at best a device to be used to connect to some of your DNA relatives- some test out as no linkage, my mothers’ own sister tests out as having no Italian blood line- but my mother does, they both have the same fparents, DNA did confirm that much. but it all matters as to which and what kind of DNA you have inherited from your past 5 generational ancestors. Each person only inherits from the 5th generation from themselves. In otherwords, none of us could be DNA linked to our own 6th great grandparents, period. For me that would be Chief Cornstalk- But, if we could ever find Bluesky- different story.
DNA in itself is Very inconclusive- and should only be used as a guideline.
The Genome Project may be a good final alternative to link DNA.
The Genome Project will tell you the 5 most common traits you have inherited, (i.e.) Irish-Welch-Native-Oriental etc..but mind you- your own sibling can test differently. But would also shed more light and a little more conclusiveness as to certain of your known ancestors.
