My own lot were amongst those who ' came second' at Culloden....( Sounds much nicer than " losers" doesn't it?)
But you can't eat history.
I took the Road Less Travelled.
Now where the ****** am I?

All you guilty bastards need not only to avoid DNA tests but to make sure your relatives don't get any either! 
We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.

OK, I gave in and tried it. Found out my nearest relatives are Famous Amos and Little Debbie.

The only famous Amos I know is from Amos and Andy. Don't remember no Little Debbie on that program maybe she changed it from Saphire.

Famous Amos makes cookies (biscuits in the UK) and Little Debbie makes cakes, small pies, donuts and such. No jaffa cakes though.

One of my sons did this, and he had all sorts of mixed lineage. It did however link him with a cousin of his grandfather, with whom we have made contact.
When you stop and think about it, you guys, like us are imports from generally UK stock, which was mixed with all sorts, like Celtic, Nordic, Iberian, Roman,etc, so given the rate of migration that is occurring at present, it wont be long till the gene pool of humans is totally mixed and there will not be what you could call a "pure breed".
Update
Well you wouldn't guess it, the above mentioned son's mother-in-law has just found out she has an older 1/2 sister, they are off to to quiz the old man.
