After 65 years of believing the man listed on my birth certificate, whom I never met, was my father; DNA testing proved otherwise. The test showed I had no connection to the person but did show I had strong connections to the Green Family (members who have started this site). It was Sue and others in the family that were able to provide me information on Green family members and determine how I was related using the DNA information, especially how to interpret the DNA segments data. It was suspected that my biological father was Sue’s uncle. Sue also did some detective work and found out that uncle had another son, but he had passed so she found a son of his. She was able to locate him and put us in contact where he agreed to take a DNA test. The results showed he was a half nephew which made his father my half brother. That then cinched it that the uncle was my biological father. Unfortunately both father and half brother were deceased but I was able to connect with an aunt and numerous cousins in the Green Family. I doubt I would have been able to do this on my own which is why I would highly recommend getting help from these individuals. It clearly can be very enlightening.
