I knew someone who was adopted as a baby, she loved horses and dedicated her life to working with them. When she tracked down her birth mother, she discovered that she also loved horses and had owned her own stables, sadly they never got to meet, but it's interesting how these interests seem to come from parent to child, perhaps just a coincidence.

The fact that they both shared the love for working with children and didn’t know each other hits home for me personally. My birth mother was a special ed elementary teacher and she died when I was five days old. I have always had a love for working with young kids and am an early Ed aide and work really well naturally with special needs children. And my birth mom’s career didn’t cross my mind till after I knew my path in life had to involve working with kids. So I’ve wondered about how if that’s a coincidence or something that can be passed on as well and that’s crazy to me that it’s happened to another daughter who never knew her biological mom. According to family she was just herself with kids and could be awkward around adults, just like me and I couldn’t of learned it from her and I didn’t know that about her till I was older. This just really makes me wonder.

She also worked and took classes at the California Labor School where she met Sicilian born Salvatrore Maida who was stationed near Berkley while serving in the U.S. Navy. They don't say why Andy's mom was placed for adoption but it seems that Ellen was a pregnant unmarried woman in school and Salvatore was only around for a short time being that he travelled in the Navy.

Thanks so much for getting in touch. While shows like Finding Your Roots does typically dive into the family histories of celebrities, their production team is in charge of casting and finding individuals to feature. Earlier this year they had an open casting call for anyone that was interested in appearing on the show, though castings did close a few weeks ago and we are not sure when or if they will offer that opportunity again. We would recommend following them on their own social media pages for any news. You may also be interested in our shows "Roots Less Traveled" and "A New Leaf" as well, which do follow everyday people's journeys of family research. Alternatively, if you have any questions on starting your research yourself, please don't hesitate to reach out. Our DNA test can be a great first step when searching for biological family memberships, which you can learn more about here: support.ancestry.com/s/article/Finding-Biological-Family Thank you again for your comment, and have a great day!

I found my dad’s biological family via an Ancestry DNA test. He had passed on already, and so had his biological mother (they died the same year, actually within a couple of months of each other.) But I was able to get in contact with a lot of cousins, and his brother. I met his brother and his adult son last year and, and it was such a special time. I wish my dad had been alive to get to meet his brother, and realise that he wasn’t so different after all. My dad growing up never felt like he fit into his family, his dad didn’t like him, and he just felt like he didn’t belong. He wasn’t told until he was 43, that he was adopted, and though I pushed and pushed, he was never ready in his lifetime to discover his roots. He wanted to, he just asn’t ready. He died at 62. I know when meeting his family and uncovering his family, that my dad was with me. It really is a beautiful thing.

Never heard of Andy Samberg, but this is fascinating. Reading the documents that are in the video, his maternal great grandfather and grandmother were both musicians and actors (Being Jewish and Central European, that's not overly surprising, but still...) His mother and maternal grandmother both worked closely with children, that has to be more than coincidental. As a physician, I've always asked what else is locked into DNA? It has to be much, much more than a string of 20 thousand independent proteins that magically just come together into a human or a horse. Imprinting into a future brain, well that's mind blowing!

I was thinking it would be so much better if Adam’s mom was there. I’m glad she was there to hear it first hand. Another amazing story.

@@caterinabandiera7529 The episode misses out the fact that the agency his mom was adopted from was in New York, and Andy's mom and dad moved to Berkeley as adults having no idea that's where his mom's biological parents were from. Which makes it more incredible. They might have been living near his mom's cousins, nieces & nephews for decades without ever knowing it if they stayed in Berkeley too.

geneology is the best way to show humans how closely bonded in blood we are to one another. stuff like 6% of your genes are just demonstrably visible to indicate we are all so similar and that races are just divisional concepts. we are one species, and races are just branches on that tree.

Genetics are very descriptive and exacting. They govern everything we do. We are the stuff from the histories.

Henry, why do you only have celebrities on?

@avengemybreath3084 11 ай бұрын

Yes, and why do they only let celebrities star in big movies? So weird….

Good afternoon I ' ve a question for Ancestry. Do you have any example of actually descendants of first british normands kings? Some spanish people wants to find their connection with them. They have their full genenalogical tree by their mother ' s side and it connects with normands kings. Thank you very much
