Clarity

You have likely wondered what your mtDNA or Y-DNA haplogroup actually means. These are branches of the Human Family Tree, but why are you on one branch instead of another? And, how is this knowledge interesting or even useful? You may have seen some information (which may be outdated) and speculation about this online.

Genetic results are more powerful than they first appear. We make the cost of your genetic testing truly worth it. Your haplogroup tells a hidden story going back hundreds and thousands of years, not just several generations. This deeper story, your deep roots, is also part of you and your family.  Where did your direct line ancestors live long ago? We unlock this hidden story and reveal it to you. Trace the footsteps of your ancestors today with our Clarity level Monograph.

Our Clarity Monograph is our standard direct lineage product, custom researched and written for you and your family. What do your genetic results, such as haplogroup and branch truly mean? We explain this fully while using clear language. Clarity Monographs show the deep roots of your family, tracing a lineage and its movements over many miles and generations with stunning detail. We take your genetic results and combine them with the most up-to-date knowledge on prehistory, archeology, anthropology, and history.

There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour, or randomised words which don't look even slightly believable. If you are going to use a passage of Lorem Ipsum, you need to be sure there isn't anything embarrassing hidden in the middle of text. All the Lorem Ipsum generators on the Internet tend to repeat predefined chunks as necessary, making this the first true generator on the Internet. It uses a dictionary of over 200 Latin words, combined with a handful of model sentence structures, to generate Lorem Ipsum which looks reasonable.

I'm impressed beyond words at the mtDNA Monograph, the depth of the work and the results. Mom is reading it non-stop now. Both parts of the Monograph were fascinating and informative!

The great thing about the Monographs and Reports is that they truly explain things. Normal people are not usually able to digest the raw results the genetic testing companies give their customers. It really requires a professional touch to sort it out and interpret it. They do not tell you this when ordering the tests. Thanks again Footsteps of Ancestors!

Reading the Footsteps of Ancestors Y-DNA and mtDNA Monographs for our family was completely satisfying, and I was delighted with the story of the treks my ancestors took. My own story is just a small part of that larger trek. I completely trust Footsteps of Ancestors to accurately research the lineages of my family. And, they explain this history clearly. It's enjoyable to read. I predict that others will also be very happy with the results for many years to come.

I only wish Dad were still with us because he would have found these discoveries fascinating, especially the prehistory / archaeology. He would have been amazed and pleased that one of the most common male lines in Europe is a ‘brother’ to the most common Native American male line. Not only is the genealogy (surname and match) information in the Monograph very helpful, but the Deep Roots (Part One) is extremely interesting!

I am very impressed with their overall analysis. A service like Footsteps of Ancestors is much needed because folks don't understand the gibberish of the geneticists. Instead, they want complete explanations and in plain language. How does it all connect? — our genetic results, our family history we already have, and what experts now know about prehistory and history. This is what Footsteps of Ancestors provides. I know people in America and Europe who were reluctant to get genetic testing. Now they don't need to be.
