What this test screens for
Understanding the Ancestry DNA
The Ancestry DNA Test is processed through an AABB-accredited DNA laboratory partner. Discover your ethnic heritage and ancestral origins. No insurance, no doctor’s referral, and no surprise bills — you see the full price before any sample is collected.
This is a peace-of-mind test — the science is identical to a legal DNA test, but the procedural overhead is lighter. Samples can be collected in our office or, in some cases, at home. Results are for personal knowledge and are not admissible in court.
A cheek swab is painless, takes about a minute per participant, and produces a sample with millions of cells the lab can analyze. No blood draw is required for the great majority of DNA tests.
Why people get this test
- Discovering your ethnic and geographic heritage
- Building or filling in a family tree
- Exploring ancestral migration and origins
- Personal curiosity about your lineage
- Complementing genealogy or family-history research

FAQ
Ancestry DNA Test — what people ask
Specific questions about the ancestry dna test. For anything not covered, call 571-500-7030.
Does an ancestry DNA test show paternity or relatives?
No. An ancestry DNA test estimates your ethnic and geographic origins — it is not a relationship test and cannot confirm paternity, maternity, or another biological link. If your question is about a specific relationship, a paternity, maternity, siblingship, or avuncular DNA test is the right choice. Ancestry results are for personal heritage interest and are not used for legal or medical decisions.
Can I use this test in court later if I need to?
No — peace-of-mind tests are not admissible because the chain-of-custody is informal. If a legal version may be needed, choose the legal paternity test from the start. The lab science is the same; only the documentation differs.
How accurate is DNA testing?
When the alleged father is the biological father, modern STR-based DNA tests typically produce a probability of paternity of 99.9% or higher. When he is not, the result is a definitive exclusion.
Can the test be done if one party is missing?
Yes. Grandparent, sibling, and avuncular tests can establish biological relationships when a direct parent is unavailable. They are slightly less definitive but often conclusive.
