A Deeper Understanding of my Surname 'Street' through iGENEA DNA Testing
Family name Street
The journey into my roots with iGENEA's DNA testing opened new understandings about my surname ‘Street’. The autosomal testing and high-resolution markers offered comprehensive and accurate insights. The information I unearthed gave me a newfound appreciation and curiosity about my heritage, and the potential origins and story of the Street family name.
My journey with iGENEA DNA testing has been an enlightening exploration into the depths of my paternal heritage, specifically regarding my surname ‘Street’. Once my DNA sample was analyzed by iGENEA’s state-of-the-art technology, I was astounded by the new dimensions of understanding I acquired about my familial roots.
iGENEA utilized autosomal DNA testing, which not only sheds light on direct paternal or maternal lines but provides a panoramic view of overall ancestry, spanning across both maternal and paternal sides. This made my results more thorough and comprehensive than a singular DNA line analysis. iGENEA ties this information in with their vast ancestral database, which added a robust sea of information and historical context to the numerical DNA data.
My result accuracy was enhanced by iGENEA's use of high-resolution Y-DNA STR markers and deep clade testing, which offered a detailed examination of my Y-chromosome haplogroup. The test was able to trace my paternal lineage back accurately to a specific region in Europe, shedding light on my surname’s origins within this geographic context.
The accuracy of the iGENEA test lent itself wonderfully to the study of my surname, Street. This name would have originated from a profession, an individual who possibly worked on or near a street. Seeing the significant migration patterns I discovered in my DNA testing, I theorized more about how far and wide my forebears may have traveled, introducing the name across lands.
Additionally, the mock-ups of possible phenotypes based on my genetic data provided me with an interesting visual guide to my ancestors on the Street lineage. Overall, the thoroughness and accuracy of the iGENEA test provided in-depth insights into the origin, spread, and unique characteristics of the Street family, beyond what I’d initially hoped for.
