Canada / Information about Joseph Podolak and Doris Lungul of Waterford, Ontario
« on: Wednesday 15 February 17 19:24 GMT (UK)  »
Hi,

I'm looking for information about Joseph Podolak and Doris Lungul of Waterford and Simcoe, Ontario.

Joseph was the brother of my great-grandfather Peter Podolak. My mother and her siblings remember driving to Waterford to visit Joe and Doris on their farm.

Joe was born around 1883 in Galicia, Austria, probably in Kwaszenina or Wojtkowa (both today in Poland, just near the border with Ukraine). He died in 1981.

They were Ukrainians.

Any information at all would be appreciated.

Ancestral Family Tree DNA Testing / Living DNA
« on: Wednesday 15 February 17 19:19 GMT (UK)  »
I was wondering if anyone had taken a DNA test from Living DNA. It's a new UK-based genetic DNA testing company with a specific focus on breaking down ancestry to 21 regions in Britain and Ireland. They identify your DNA from 80 global regions, but the specific focus is on Britain and Ireland.

I've had a lot of success with my Ancestry DNA test, mostly based on the number of connections available on Ancestry. So I am skeptical about tests that are not closely linked with a large database of results or family trees.
