Family name Ogden

iGENEA's DNA analysis gave me an exhilarating journey into my past, providing insights into my familial roots and the origin of my name, Ogden. As the test revealed now only my historical connection to Northern England but also to ancient Viking tribes, it offered an entirely new perspective on my heritage.

Undergoing DNA analysis to discover familial roots is an invigorating journey, as was mine at iGENEA. The primary goal of this endeavor was pinpointing the origin and history of my surname, Ogden. This experience shed new light on my ancestors' footsteps, helping me comprehend who I am today.

My analysis at iGENEA was marked by remarkable accuracy and thorough detailing, making it a captivating adventure, each revelation intriguingly weaving my past. The procedure itself was quite straightforward – a swab test was sent via mail, which I returned after collecting my samples. The process was effortless, convenient, and non-invasive.

As per my results, my surname Ogden, typically a toponymic name originating from Northern England, was tied to an ancient tribe. My Y-DNA analysis divulged that the name initially denoted 'Oak valley' and was used to describe people from areas laden with oak trees. As my journey into my ethnic past ensued, I was fascinated to learn that the name can be traced back centuries to the old Scandinavian tribes that once inhabited Northern England.

The connection to Nordic roots was downright fascinating. As my results indicated, the Ogdens were Vikings who moved to England during the Viking Age, affecting the socio-cultural setup of the regions they settled in, including language and place names. My Nordic lineage was a revelation, transforming the way I viewed my surname. I no longer identified Ogden as merely an English name but as an emblem of rugged Viking warriors that once ruled the seas.

The mitochondrial DNA analysis delved into my maternal lineage, revealing ties to Europe, suggesting a blend of cultures and races in my bloodline. This intertwined genetic heritage has broadened my perspective about my origins, integrating me intrinsically into the grand human mosaic.

All these revelations heightened my appreciation for the complex tapestry my past is. The DNA analysis at iGENEA expanded my horizons, adding more depth to my understanding of self, strengthening my ties with the past.
