[or-roots] YDNA testing to determine ancestry.

Hi Les -
 
   I did the testing about 3 years ago.  Prior to that I was  able to prove 
my heritage back
to my 9th great grandfather who came to America around 1638.  The test  came 
back with
a positive match to another person with  that same grandfather.   What I 
don't think can
be proven is who his father was.  Unless he had some written material  of 
some sort saying
so and so was his father I don't think the test could prove anything unless  
the 10th great
grandfather 's body or bones could be exhumed and tested.  So I tend  to 
disbelieve it when
some test say that couldn't be my 10th great grandfather .  We've had  
several disputes in
my family over who in England was my 9th gg parents.  Probably will  never 
know for certain
except for the logical aspect of things.  Very complicated.
