Join us on this emotional DNA Journey of discovery as we reveal what makes each of us unique, also connects us.
Add a few family members to your tree, and we'll search for them in our record collections.
The leaf is a hint—it means we've found something intriguing that may match your ancestor.
The hint could reveal a new name to search or even a new ancestor to add to your tree.
The more you add, the more hints you get. And gradually your family story becomes clearer.
What if you could learn you’re not just Irish, but related to the Ulster Irish? Now you can, with specific details that connect you to the people, places, and migration paths in your family story. Find out who your ancestors were, what bonded them over generations, and why and where they migrated—all from your DNA.

Discover AncestryDNAGrowing up, Lezlie had always encountered curiosity about her ethnicity from people she'd meet. “I probably got the question 3 to 4 times a week if I was Asian or Moroccan or something else,” she shared. So she jumped at the opportunity to find out through AncestryDNA.
And it turns out, Lezlie's DNA results did include African, European, and Asian. “It was great because it helped confirm what I knew in my gut… with a little surprise.”
There are many paths to finding your family story. Whichever way you choose—tracing your family generations back with a family tree or uncovering your ethnicity with AncestryDNA—we'll be here to help you.
