In order to begin to make headway on a Brick Wall related to the parentage of the Father of my Mother, I paid for her brother to participate in the Wells DNA Project.
I just got the results back, and they are intriquing.
I'll have more to report on this as I study the results, but it's pretty clear he's a Wells. ;-D
The interesting thing is that, of the 250 test takers that Ancestry says his DNA has similarities to...
the most recent time period for a common ancestor goes back 125 years,
for 2 test takers not named Wells (1 in England, and 1 in Oregon),
then 150 yrs. for 7 people named Wells.
There are even 2 people living in Germany, neither named Wells, 1 with a common ancestor around 450 years ago, and another 825 years ago.
And people think Genealogy is Boring???? ;-D
Do you have any Wells in Massachusetts? My Aunt & Uncle were foster children for a Mrs. Wells in Lake Pleasant Ma. I never heard her first name as we always had to call her Mrs. Wells. I know she was into Geneology.
