Eureka or Gold? Brick Wall Tumbled Down!
What GED Match can do for you!
My sister, my great right hand gal, had uploaded her RAW DNA from Ancestry.com into www.GEDMatch.com. It is a free service by the way.

Your DNA belongs to you and Ancestry.com provides a way for you to download it onto your computer for your personal use.
So that's exactly what my sister did. Then she uploaded it into GED match.com.
After many days when the group was full the DNA ran. She was alerted that it was finished.
Then she was able to view her results as to whom she was related to and on which centamorgans. It showed how close she's related to our dad. Very very cool stuff!
Then on Monday evening she called me to say that she had been contacted by a related Dutch genealogist who also ran her Raw DNA through GED Match.com. It showed a Dutch connection between them.
My sister provided her with some info. She heard back from her along with 5 correct Dutch generations of our family. Fantastic !!!
How lucky was that??? To me increadble.
