I think Ancestry.com is worth the 1.6 Billion. I have ancestry in Poland and the Ukraine and doing research can be tricky. Ancestry.com was the go to source for me. Amazing resource.
However, the current pricing is prohibitive. A year's full access was almost $400, and that was nearly 10 years ago. I hope they lower their price. I'll sign up again if they do.
- jetti 14y agoIf you are looking to expand your research, I would suggest Family Tree DNA. It can test the paternal or maternal lines to get ancestry. I did the paternal tests since my dad was adopted and didn't know his ethnicity and it was really neat to find that his side is from the Balkans after migrating from East Africa (oh and that I might be an ethnic Jew as well).
- bravoyankee 14y agoSounds enticing, and it might add another dimension to my research. Thanks!
