Trying to identify my Scottish heritage.

I recently turned 40 and chose to honor the occasion by taking a lengthy vacation to the UK. I've always wanted to visit, and I know it plays a significant role in my ancestry. I took a DNA test with Ancestry around a year ago. Unexpectedly, I discovered that I am a whooping 31% Scottish!

Making conections

The more information you can give about the people you mention, the more chance there is of someone else connecting with your family.

Dates and places of births, deaths and marriages all help to place families.

Professions also help.

Maybe it is time to update the information in your profile?
