DNA Journey with iGENEA: A Path to Unexpected Celtic Ancestry and Rediscovery of Self
Family name Price
A journey into my genetic heritage using iGENEA DNA testing unraveled unexpected connections to Celtic ancestry and a reevaluation of my self-identity. I discovered a rich Celtic past associated with the Price side of my lineage and it stirred a deeper understanding of my inherited traits and values.
Ever since I embarked on the journey into my genetic heritage using iGENEA's DNA testing, my understanding of my ancestry, specifically my Price ancestors, drastically changed. The test reports provided unique insights which reshaped my narrative of self-identity. I was in for a surprise when the test hinted at Celtic ancestry, instead of the Germanic origins I was always led to believe. I was fascinated to trace my lineage back to Price ancestors who were likely fierce Celtic warriors, who conquered vast territories and stood as stalwarts against Roman invasions.
The projections pointed towards a strong Welsh connection, taking my family lineage back to a mysterious and intriguing Celtic past. The surprise didn't stop there. I found out my Price lineage possibly belonged to the Brythonic Celts who lived in Britain during the Iron Age, before the Roman conquest. This discovery has instigated a renewed sense of belonging and curiosity in me about these fascinating Celtic tribes. I now feel an intimate connection with these bold ancestors, relishing the thought of a shared spirit of resistance and resilience running through my veins.
This newfound knowledge breathed a completely different life into the stoic photos of my Price forefathers that decorated our ancestral home. I now see them as residues of persistent warriors continuing the legacy passed down through generations. Their tales of survival and endurance inherited through genetics weave a deeper story of our familial bonds, feeding my spirit with a sense of pride and strength.
As the understanding of my Celtic heritage grew, I began reflecting upon my inherent traits and values. Could my love for nature, my creativity, or even my innate sense of justice be influenced by my inherited Celtic genes? This shift in perspective has been illuminating, leading me to rethink my sense of identity rooted in genetic heredity.
In retrospect, the iGENEA DNA test has been a transformational journey. It was an unexpected voyage backward in time that expanded the understanding of my ancestry and myself. To anyone who is interested in ancestral research, I highly recommend it. You might be surprised at where your genetic journey could take you.
