[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also bear in mind that DNA results for ancestry are going back hundreds if not thousands of years.  You'll never get DNA results that tell you which country your grandparents lived in.[/quote]

From Ancestry's website:

4. How is this DNA test going to help me with my research?

Your DNA may hold information to help make new discoveries about your family’s past, your cultural roots, as well as confirm information in your family tree. Using your DNA test in combination with an Ancestry subscription gives you hints that can guide your investigations and connect you with new relatives. These new relatives that you discover may have additional information, a piece of your family story to tell or photos to share.

Your DNA test results also provide information that’s more relevant and recent—targeting your family history a few hundred or even a thousand years ago, as compared to the Y-chromosome or mitochondrial DNA tests, which have a 10,000 to 50,000 year time focus.
