“Unraveling the Truth: A Daughter’s DNA Test Uncovers a Shocking Family Secret That Changes Everything!”
The Family Had A Proud Italian Lineage
The Cartellones had a proud Italian ancestry, mainly from Joe’s side of the family. Rebecca, 24, had researched her ancestors before. She was curious about how much Italian was in her blood.
Contrary to popular belief, DNA is not a 50/50 ratio between the mother and daughter. That is why families often take DNA tests together.
How Does An Ancestry Kit Work?
The Cartellones bought their kit from Ancestry.com, but most work the same way. They require a person’s DNA sample, usually in the form of saliva through a spit test tube or cheek swab.
The results are then sent to a database that logs a person’s DNA and connects them to others.
These Tests Connect People To Previously-Unknown Relatives
Ancestry kits are famous (or perhaps notorious) for revealing new relatives. When a person’s DNA matches another person in the database, the ancestry explains how they are related.
Many people have discovered long-lost relatives through DNA tests. For parents and children, the results reveal which parts of the child come from which parent.
The Cartellones Got Mystifying Results
The Cartellones sent in their DNA kits right after Christmas. In late January, they received their results. But they never could have anticipated what they found out.
