Hi, Michaela..I'm assuming that you've had your DNA analysis done. I'm told that Ancestry has the largest database. I had my DNA done with My Heritage and that turned up some interesting connections. I've also been advised to have my DNA analysis done again by Ancestry. Have you got a birth certificate for your mum and Grandmother? My sister was a Registrar and tells me that the Scots include details on the birth certificates that the English don't. I hope that helps. Laura.

Hi Laura, thankyou for your message. Yes I’ve had my dna done on AncestryDNA, I’ve now got a kit to do it on my heritage too. Unfortunately my mums birth certificate gives her Dads name, but not her Farhers. Her Dad was Polish, and he told her before he died he wasn’t her father. So I have no way of knowing how to find her family. My mum had a severe stroke 2yrs ago and is unable to tell me anything, and I don’t want to upset her either as she may not remember. I did order mums birth certificate from Scotland and it gave no more information than her “parents”. Thank you so much though Laura. Much appreciated hun, takecare, xxx
