Ancestry.com wrote to say that they had updated the results of my DNA tests and they had new information to share with me. I went to the website and was shocked to see that I was no longer part Irish, but rather 26% Scottish. I have been part Irish all my life, as well as part Native American. The first go-round Ancestry said that, no, I had no Native American DNA per their results. Shocking. But this time I'm no longer Irish -- I'm Scottish?????!!!!. As my daughter Molly and niece Jaden had also learned about being part Scottish, we spent some time exploring our heritage, at least the obvious parts: Mel Gibson as William Wallace, Sean Connery as Sean Connery, Sam Heughan as Jamie Fraser and nameless attractive people in handsome plaids. More will be revealed. Time to work on my shortbread.
