I`m waiting for a couple of my lines to test (not my campbell Campbells)
because I know there is an illigimate connection in the lines and know (through
the testimony of family members) who the "real" father was but if these
people have tested they are not sharing which I think is cowardly and deceitful.
These lines are far enough back that it shouldn`t be embarrassing and one
should accept the truth and quit decieving oneself and others.These family
members seem to just ignore the obvious and want to "Be" something they are
not when the lines they really come from are just as interesting and maybe
farther back just as impressive.
Yes, DNA research is only as reliable as the accuracy of the pedigrees
submitted.
I have another researcher on one line who so gullible she thinks DNA "is"
the "all in all: of genealogy.
That attitude is ignorant.
I "really" want to know the true lines when it comes to my ancestors and I
think I am willing to accept the impressive with the not so impressive (even
scandalous at times).
