I recently had a DNA test done, on
FamilytreeDNA.com and would like to recomment=d others
look into it..Some facts: World Connection reports that Cady surname is 20 times larger in
America as in Britain. (8000 to 400)
Immigration reports 172 Cady surname immigrants to America, most from Ireland after 1840.
There were over 900 Cady's related to Nicholas by then.
DNA seems to point to the Cady line coming from Scandinavia,or No Germany. The most likely
would be Danish settlers around 850 (see Daneslaw). Modern English is tracked back to this
time in East Angelica. Surnames only started after 1300 as part of Feudal Estate
management,
