So this is going to be a quick entry. I have a lot of catching up to do with the wild speculation of the past.
Personal genetic testing has come a long way from when I first started this. When I started this blog, so much was a revelation to me. I was learning that it was possible to be more than just a traditional WASP Mormon. And I fantasized or hoped to draw conclusions that would prove some fantastic conspiracy. And the DNA testing emboldened me that I could be all the people— Jew, Native American, African, etc.
well new research shows I am still more diverse genetically than my neighbors but don’t really qualify as a minority or whatever I was going for.
Long story short- the reason for my Middle Eastern DNA is not directly to my True Blue Mormon pioneer, cousin-of-Joseph-Smith dad. It’s from my mother.
In short, the mostly German man who admitted in a court of law to being my great grandfather was not. It appears the true sperm donor was most likely a man straight from Argos, Greece by the last name of Pullos.
More later….😂
