Text of the page (random words):
evolved from what was originally an article for the washington post and libby interwove alice s search with an investigation into how genomics has evolved in the past decade to where it is today including both the positive and negative aspects of this opening frontier into what our genes say about us i m surprised the photo turned out as good as it did it s a wee bit cloudy outside today sometimes the positive and negative are part of the same story such as the usage of dna genealogy databases in the apprehension of the long elusive golden state killer that joseph james deangelo was caught was one thing but that dna genealogy databases could be exploited by law enforcement without people s knowledge was quite another remember those fingerprints we all provided when we were kids back in the 70s and 80s so that law enforcement could find us if we were abducted yeah like that only much more so from imgflip but this book while it makes for an engaging read has a personal angle to it that goes far afield from anything that this blog typically covers over the past decade i ve seriously considered having my dna tested numerous times and even within the past month i ve gotten to within a few clicks of signing up for ancestrydna s dna test luckily for me i didn t because a couple of days later that money and some father s day cash was sucked up by car repairs yay car repairs some of it is curiosity as i ve always considered myself a bit of a mutt as far as my ancestry is concerned and my mother insisted we have some native american ancestors on her side and putting the question of where my ancestors came from to bed would solve these two items but there s there s more to it than just that we know absolutely nothing about my father s father oh a puzzle my questing buddy exclaimed when i mentioned this to her my dad was always told that his mom and dad met moved out to colorado got married and his dad died when he was an infant as you might be able to read between the lines that was simply a fabrication by my grandmother and my great aunt her sister one of my dad s cousins finally spilled the beans to him about 25 years ago before my grandmother passed away apparently my grandmother got pregnant she and my great aunt went out west had my dad and then came back home with him my dad being the sort who would apologize if he ever cursed with a word stronger than darn it was incensed and demanded an explanation from his mom who told you that she responded i want to know the truth i don t know all the details but what i do know is that in addition to the above story my grandmother had doctored my dad s birth certificate which made it difficult for him to receive social security benefits because his name didn t match that on the certificate so who was my grandfather outside of a name that may or may not be real i don t have a clue i also don t know if there are any genetic risks for cancer or heart disease or whatnot that i don t know about either as for relatives i don t know about well i m of two minds on that one unlike my wife who calls her parents multiple times a week and chats with her sister and her other relatives on social media all the time i tend to keep my distance from my family they all tend to be far more religious than i am and far more prudish as well so i m happy to keep them at greater than arm s length and oh look here s this little dna test that has the ability to upend entire families understanding of who they are if i were to spit into a vial and send it off to get studied that s the thing that keeps me from pulling the trigger i already know that something will likely come up and that i won t be interested in reaching out to these people but will those people then find me or if i don t get test but another relative does and suddenly i m the one getting the metaphorical knock on the door by someone claiming to be a cousin i never knew existed in a post pandemic world where i saw the worst of humanity broadcast for everyone to see do i really want to know these people i can select my friends but i can t do the same to family unlike many seekers i don t feel adrift because i m missing part of my life but i am curious but am i curious enough to find out answers i might not like finally there s a question about my genealogy that has nothing whatsoever to do with my non existent grandfather and that has to do with my family s search into their own family tree one of my mom s sisters has been conducting research into my mom s family and supposedly she s found all of this interesting stuff about where the family came from yadda yadda yadda however my aunt isn t exactly known for her academic rigor so without me reviewing her research i look at her claims with a skeptical eye so for my edification if nothing else i m interested enough into my own verification of these claims that i ve begun collecting a database on the family history yes i use ancestry s database but no it s not public dna testing might help to solidify some of this genealogical research but then again it might open up a can of worms jeez rowan the least you could have done is gotten me into the opening ceremony of the 2012 olympics from memegenerator net some reviewers think of this usage of recreational genomics and the book itself as basically first world problems i don t think that the world really cares who your great grandpa bonked is what one reviewer on goodreads said the world may not but this isn t really about what the world thinks the book isn t really written for genealogists either as they likely already know everything in the book and would look at it as rather simplistic from cafepress where you can get this on a coffee mug i don t get to say how your ethics and morality play into what you might find in your family tree and to be fair what people think of genealogy in the us and canada where a lot of people s ancestors came from somewhere else is going to be different than the viewpoint of someone from europe or asia if i were to look at it as purely an academic exercise i d most likely pass on a dna test from that perspective the potential downsides outnumber any upsides still i d be a fool to not acknowledge an emotional component to this the desire to know as much as possible while i may keep my family at a distance knowing a bit about their collective history my history is a very strong pull plus i want to set any records straight i d be going in ready to accept things such as hidden names or even different family names than what is commonly accepted today because history is messy like that what oh the book right about the book yes i liked it for people worried about there being too much biology in the book don t worry if you lack detailed knowledge about genetics you won t have any issues following the book you had better expect to think critically about the subject however and for people who thought that getting your dna tested on a lark or as a present to a family member the book is a bucket of cold water dumped on you if you want to go ahead do so but go into it with your eyes wide open as to any consequences
