** WOW! Does this mean that DNA testing will show that my parents had
different surnames, and that each generation further back the likely
number of different surnames in the family doubles?
Really? I thought that this was perfectly obvious, and also that DNA
testing can only give general guidelines about our origins a thousand
years ago or more?
