Depends on the type of plough. Some were sit on though the single walking one in the link could be reversed and drawn behind a cart etc, with the wheels at the rear. ;

Ancestral Family Tree DNA Testing / Re: Advice as to which test please
« on: Sunday 23 March 25 20:11 GMT (UK) »
Ydna is only passed down through the male line. Looks like you are restricted to Autosomal dna.
I think Ancestry would be the best, you can upload your results to other sites from Ancestry but not vice versa. They also have the largest amount of people who have tested.
