Unraveling Unexpected Ancestry Tales: A DNA Journey Beyond My Surname 'Bittner'
Family name Bittner
My DNA report from iGENEA came as a massive surprise. I discovered that my roots were not solely located in Eastern Europe, as I had thought all my life but stretched further into the expanses of Scandinavia. This voyage of genomic exploration has made me rethink my entire concept of identity.
For years, I existed under the presumption of a strictly Eastern European ancestry, linked to my surname 'Bittner'. However, my recent iGENEA DNA test unraveled a tale that has strayed me far from my expected familial narrative. I discovered stunning facts that nodded to unexpected turns in migrations, new geographical origins, and surprising links to a warrior tribe.
My DNA revealed a rich tapestry that incorporated not just Eastern Europe, but connections tracing back to Scandinavia, to the Normans, to the Vikings. It was an astonishing revelation, to say the least. Not only did the test uncover a diverse lineage I was oblivious to, but a surprisingly different narrative regarding my surname 'Bittner.'
