However, there was a link at NG allowing NG to send its data to the an organization called Family DNA, and I've gotten some interesting results, to wit:

Now I am not exactly sure what a 12-marker match means. It suggests shared ancestry, but it's not clear to me how far back. And the "country of origin" in the foregoing table simply means the self-reported country of origin. I reported Scotland because of the last name and the family tradition, but who really knows? All that said, I apparently am related to Native Siberians. I am not quite clear about who the native Siberians are. But look: Five matches.
I like having either Native Siberian blood or Native Siberian connections. Maybe I will probe further and maybe I won't. As the late great Herb Caen said, "Check it and lose it."
My connections based on a near miss, 11 out of 12 markers on the Y-chromosome, are even better. I suppose it means my ancestors got around. And that makes me feel good.
Of the immigrants, by the immigrants and for the immigrants: That's me.
