Have anyone taken a DNA testing.

I have- I've done both 23 and Me, and Ancestry. Pretty cool to dig into! I have a huge interest in geneology, and I've loved diving into my family history. Recently (within the last 2 weeks) I found out that one of my coworkers is a cousin....which is insane, as he relocated his family here to when we offered him the job 4 years ago...so he isn't even from around here. 🙂

Same. I’m a genealogy geek. It’s funny, my direct family are all from Europe, except for 3 or 4 relatives who migrated to the US 100-110 years ago, but most of my cousin matches are from the US. I’m mostly German, Dutch, English and distant Eastern Euro (Silesian German) and Scandinavian (Norwegian/Swedish/Danish) Best company in terms of accuracy for me is 23andme, but Gedmatch, a free genealogy website with literally hundreds of ancestry oracles/tools is probably superior to 23andme, depending on the calculator you use.
 
I’m distantly related to Margot Robbie through her mother’s side. Margot’s maternal grandfather was Herbert Justus Kessler (the son of Johannes Justus Kessler and Erna Dolcia Kowald). Erna was born in Australia, the daughter of Johannes Berthold Kowald, whose father was from Silesia, Prussia. Kowald is probably a German variant of Kowalski.

My paternal great grandfather and his mother were born in Breslau, Silesia (Prussia/Germany) now Wrocław, Poland. Silesian Germans/Poles are all closely related to each other. Most are descended from German settlers from Saxony, Franconia and Austria (Austria in my case) who intermarried with Poles.
 
Sound like you are stuck the pre 2000's age for you base the image you go in your profile. @Muzik Luver
Not really. I embrace any technological advances that come along, just not sure about ascertaining total information of one's ancestry from these types of tests. The image is there because it is a fond recollection of a piece of audio equipment that was in our household as a child.

Funny you should read about DNA testing and companies and how it takes to map out the DNA and now how fast it can complete now. @Muzik Luver

Dutch, German, Scandinavian and British Isles basically, and no, Orcadian isn’t something out of Lord of the Rings. It refers to someone from the Orkney Isles, basically a mixed Scando-Brit, similar to Icelandic and Björk.
