There are some things you can be certain of in life, like the widely-accepted, “death, taxes and election season TV commercials.” And until recently, I would have added “family” to that list: the deeply rooted family tree of parents, siblings, grandparents and other relatives who anchor you to your past.
Most people know a bit about their family history and they might even take it for granted. But nowadays, with DNA testing kits being all the rage, there are many people out there uncovering things about themselves and their families they never imagined. More and more of these stories are coming to light, thanks to advancing technology and curious people researching their roots. And my story is just one of them.
