Note: I have taken the following DNA tests: 23andme, AncestryDNA, Tribecode, MyHeritage, LivingDNA and have taken the Family TreeDNA’s Full Sequence mtDNA and Family Finder tests. I have also done the updated DNA Tribes’s SNP Analysis. It is my opinion, that AncestryDNA is the best test, especially for African-Americans and Puerto Ricans, followed by 23andme, and then MyHeritage and FTDNA’s Family Finder. The DNA Tribes SNP Analysis gives a very detailed admixture breakdown of your ethnic admixture as well as shows your affinity to known populations in the world.
Before taking any DNA test, I highly recommend reading the International Society Of Genetic Genealogy’s comparison chart first to see the pros and cons of each test.

I checked with Geni.com this is you Thomas Lyon he was married to Martha Johanna WINTHROP and Mary Eliza HOYT.
This of course would mean that you are a descendant of Robert II King of Scots. Geni.com is awesome
Nice to meet you, cousin!
What do you think about DNA Consultants? DNA Consultants can supposedly tell you what Indigenous Tribes your DNA may match and gives you a list of Tribes you match.
