Mobile DNA results are in. Quite disappointed.

So my closest relative is my auntie.

All other relatives show as 3rd and 4th cousins.

I don’t share any of the 3rd cousins with my auntie, only 4th cousins.

Was hoping to find some of my dads side of the family because I have no idea who he is but as my mum and auntie have different dads, some of those 3rd cousins could be from my mums side 😭

There’s not a single common surname on any of the lists either

Dont lose hope, sometimes those connections can turn out to be closer relatives, also, now your DNA is on the file, if someone on your dads side takes the same test in future you will get a match.

I wish I could get my mum to take it so I could see who belongs to which side but I know there’s no way in hell she would lol

It took three years for anything of any significance to flag for me. Don't give up hope, more and more people are doing this all the time. There's a huge new influx after Christmas.

My Aunt was given the kit by her son for Chrismas last year. I then found out who my father was after she was connected to me.

I hardly knew anything about my Dad’s side of the family bar his sister & mum & dad. I’ve had a few matches on ancestry after having the DNA test & one is a 3rd cousin on my dad’s side & she filled me in on some of his mums side of the family which was lovely as my dad died in 2005.
