[quote=Anonymous]I have this same concern about my dad's genes, sort of. He had three children, two from a first marriage and me, whereas my mom had several children from her first marriage. We all grew up together, Brady Bunch style. The sibs from my mom's first marriage all had kids, with a mix of boys & girls. Dad's bio kids have adopted, although ironically one sister had a baby as a teen that was adopted. So dad's genes will make it to the next generation and his name will too, just not together. OP, you might feel comforted that there are probably many adoptions among your ancestors that were kept secret, so the gene line probably is more jagged than you'd imagine. (And yes, in case you doubt it, your mom's ancestors are your ancestors. It's the relationship that makes you part of the family, not the gene line.)[/quote]
