I did a test thru Ancestry a year or so ago for my cousin. He was trying to trace our family back to the 1600's in Boston and ran into a problem where the British burned the town records twice in either Rhode Island or Mass. And what he was trying to prove needed my father's DNA, not his mother's. My test has not helped him much yet to prove the lineage. But it has connected me with several 2nd and 3rd cousins from all over the country that I had no idea existed, and they all confirmed back to the same area of upstate NY where I live now. Oddly enough though, thru my mother's side of the family, rather than dad's side, which is the side of my cousin who started me on this.
As far as origin, no surprises there. Although the first analysis showed traces from places that surprised me. Those disappeared when they gave me an update recently, based on them changing their metrics.
All very interesting and I have no concerns about my info being in their database.

Some of us grew up thinking that an air filter was a paper thing that allowed air to pass while trapping dirt particles of a particles of a certain size. What a surprise to open up your first old tractor's air filter case and find a can that appears to be filled with the scrap metal swept from around a machine shop metal lathe. To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
