Dive deeper into your origins. See places your ancestors lived and journeys they may have taken.
Combine AncestryDNA with your current membership to go beyond the paper trail and
unlock discoveries you can only make through the power of science.
Through the power of DNA, you can trace the paths of distant ancestors—including regions they may have lived and journeys they may have taken—that aren’t recorded in documents. It’s a great way to explore your ancestral origins and learn what makes you unique. You can even see which side of your family tree certain DNA traits and relatives belong to.
AncestryDNA can lead to new family connections, even when no clear records exist. You might identify relatives who share ancestors you never knew about, or reveal an entirely unknown branch of your lineage. These discoveries can confirm or correct your family tree, and even show living DNA matches who might have photos and stories to share.
With ThruLines you can link your DNA test with your family tree to visually map out how you might be related to your DNA relatives through shared ancestors. This can make your genetic relationships easier to understand, and it’s yet another way you can learn even more by combining your current membership with AncestryDNA.
