Ironically , I was in hospital a few weeks ago , I went in for an one day operation on torn shoulder tendons . During tests to see was I fit to go under the anaesthetic it turns out that I have a heart abnormality almost certainly hereditary . I didnt get out for three days . Never sick a day in me life !!.
Anyway , I was wondering if anyone on here had their DNA tested for genealogy purposes .

Also... anyone on the sex offenders list for rape, paedophilia and so on will have their DNA recorded - unlikely they'll post on here about it.
Are you just enquiring about someone trying to establish a family connection with some possible ancestor ?Everything is self-evident.
