FTDNA


By arturdeleon - Posted on 18 January 2015

Hello Armando, I am contemplating the Y-DNA, however, I have a
question regarding the Y-DNA, according of what I have read on
the subject, is that through the Y-DNA, it will discover a paternal
ancestor, in my case the surname de Leon. I am willing to invest the
necessary funds, if the test will provide me with the information
for me to break through the wall, I have encountered while researching my grandfather Bartolo de Leon. I have been very successful with my maternal
ancestry surnames of Garcia, Reyes,Bocanegra, Macias, Mendoza, Tiscareno
Ruiz
de Esparza, de Udabe, etc of Aguascalientes, the only results I have
encountered of the de Leon surname is from various administrators of
ANCESTRYDNA, however, so far the claim is that the MATCH is their wives,
husbands, etc and that is as far as it goes. I wonder if by having the
Y-DNA test done, I would enhance my research. Thanks, Arturo
