DNA Test Sales & Discounts
Occasionally there are sales or discount voucher codes available for the purchase of DNA tests for genealogy. I will publish them on this page whenever I'm aware of good deals to share.
Also compare the features and prices of the major DNA testing companies.
Living DNA
- Living DNA breaks down your ancestry across 80 worldwide regions - three times the detail of other tests. It also breaks down British ancestry across 21 regions, and as new discoveries are made and more regions identified, your results will be updated (Irish and German regions are currently being developed and your results will be updated as these are completed).
- Get your DNA into the database early, ready for Living DNA's exciting new Family Networks and relative matching features to be launched later in 2018!

I have been working on my genealogy for quite a while and have quite a bit now, BUT my dads mothers grandparents. I believe my great great grandmother was full Choctaw Indian. I am not sure that any of the DNA tests will help me since I am female and its on my (deceased) dads maternal line and there isn't any males alive that I know of. Any thoughts?

Hi Paula, you don't need a male to test, as females receive admixture estimates from autosomal DNA tests too. And an autosomal DNA test will match you with other people who share DNA with you, so you may match some relatives from your Dad's maternal lines, which could be very helpful. Good luck!
