Thanks again!
RAF,
I think you will really have fun with it. Let me know if you decide to go through with it and keep me posted when you have your results. To me it's a rewarding and exciting journey. I have a German line in my family that I believe may originate in Denmark. I'd love to have someone in that line tested to see where it actually originates. Perhaps you will get a surprise when you test! That's the other bit of fun with DNA.
Best of luck
