Tracing your paternal line
For tracing the paternal lineage, you will want to order a Y-DNA Ancestry Test. Y-DNA has only 2 types of genetic markers that provide useful ancestral information: STR and SNP markers. You will need Y-DNA STR marker profiles to access our free ancestry web apps. SNP markers are used to trace haplogroups, aka “deep ancestry”, and to confirm a person’s haplogroup and subclade. Only males can take paternal ancestry tests. Females wishing to trace paternal ancestry would need to test a paternal relative, such as a brother, father, paternal uncles (father’s brother), or paternal male cousins (father’s brother’s sons). You can order the following tests for tracing paternal ancestry:
- Standard Paternal Ancestry Package (Y-DNA 20 STR Marker Test), $119
- Advanced Paternal Ancestry Package (Y-DNA 44 STR Marker Test), $199
- Premium Paternal Ancestry Package (Y-DNA 101 STR Marker Test), $339

- Standard Maternal Ancestry Package (mtDNA HVR1 Test), $119
- Advanced Maternal Ancestry Package (mtDNA HVR1 + HVR2 Test), $189
- Premium Maternal Ancestry Package (mtDNA HVR1 + HVR2 + Coding Region Test), $528
