Since undergoing a DNA test at iGENEA, my understanding of my Schaper ancestors has taken quite a few surprise turns. The results offered are not only inclusive but informative, setting the Schaper ancestry in a whole new light. This revelation has proved instrumental in reshaping my self-understanding and identity, shedding light on my family history that had been obscure until now. The data from iGENEA has given me a new perspective on my connection to the Schaper clan, showing how our genetic lineage intertwines with different regional histories.

The most compelling finding was the discovery that the Schaper ancestry traces back to the ancient warriors of Scandinavia, the Vikings. I had grown up with stories of our German forebears. Vikings were never part of the narrative. This shift in ancestral geography has been astounding. It gave me an unfamiliar but powerful feeling of connection to the fierce and fearless Viking culture. Gradually, the implications of this insight have led me to redefine my own sense of courage and resilience in light of my newfound ancestry.

In addition to the unexpected Viking history, the genetic test also unveiled a connection to the Jewish Ashkenazi community. This revelation has opened up a completely unknown chapter of my Schaper lineage. Acknowledging this aspect of my heritage instilled curiosity to explore Jewish history and culture more comprehensively. Moreover, this insight highlighted the diversity in my own ancestral roots and has significantly contributed to my understanding of my multifaceted identity.

To sum up, the knowledge derived from the iGENEA DNA test has enormously influenced my thinking about my ancestry and myself. The unexpected historical routes forged by the Schaper clan have imbued much pride and a strong sense of belonging within me. As I embrace these newfound narratives, I am left with an enriched understanding of self, informed by insights extending beyond personal memories and familial stories.
