Is there such a thing as genealogy tests? Tests that you can trace back who's

descendants you are.? If so:

How much does it cost? Where do you get the tests done? Does it hurt? How do they test you? How long till you get the results? Is it beneficial? Does it work?
Give me some sources if you have any.
Correct and up to date sources. Easy to understand and reliable. Besides Wikipedia.

Not exactly. DNA tests in genealogy will tell you generally the geographic origins of your ancestors based on having DNA that is common in certain populations of people in certain areas of the world. But it will NOT tell you who your ancestors are. They do not have DNA samples from everyone that ever lived, or hardly anyone that lived more than a few decades ago. You are not going to find out by DNA testing if King so and so from 1492 AD is your 18th great-grandfather.

EDIT: If you want to have the DNA test done, you are going to have to google for that information. There are TONS of places that will do it, and the prices will vary.

EDIT: Lou Lou answered this question and then a few minutes later re-asked practically the same question. Seems like someone is playing with multiple Yahoo accounts which is against Yahoo rules. Both have been reported so Yahoo can figure it out.

Yeah. They are beneficial, they work, and matter what the cost its worth it. You find out where your ancestors were from, and all about your ancestors, and then you can add that to yourself. Do some more research, google DNA testing. Its really worth it.
