Are you going down the #DNA #Family #Ancestry path? I found this:
My dad isn't my dad.
My brother's dad isn't his dad, nor mine.
I have many "new" half-siblings.
Two sisters have the same dad, but not mine or my brother's. They're also my 10th cousins b/c the paternal lines cross, back in the 1700s.
Many of my "new" ancestors played a big role in the Salem witch trials: an accuser, a juror & the constable. That's balanced by the fact that my maternal side had "witches".
