[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What would you be looking for from a reconnection? Have you done 23 & me or the like?[/quote]

I don't know what I would be looking for. Maybe more understanding of who my family was before they "lost" their identity.

I have done 23 and me. Said what I expected, German, Danish, UK. [/quote]

If you had Ashkenazi DNA that should have showed up in the results - I'm not sure if/how they test for Sephardim.

You could use Ancestry.com to see what you can track down. But also, if you are feeling a pull toward Judaism, I'd say explore it. Spend some time going to a reform synagogue - or talking to a rabbi. I think, especially now, you will be welcomed.[/quote]

From what I understand there is no way to test for Sephardim. My dad did 23 and me and even though he is 1/8th Spanish Jew (or so we've been told) it just shows up as Iberian. [/quote]

Oh interesting - I'm 99% Ashkenazi (per personal history and 23 and me) so I wouldn't even know know what to look for to find out if someone is Sephardic. I guess OP would have said if her results showed some Spanish or Portuguese heritage, or Moroccan.  [/quote]
