answers1: Is there a genealogy test that does not have a perpetual,
royalty free, that if your dna is used for development or discovery of
medical or technical uses to were you receive no compensation for
those discoveries? In other words is there a company, organization
that does not use your dna for their gain?
answers2: DNA testing can tell you in which areas of the world your
ancestors have probably lived over periods of thousands of years. <br>
Your DNA results can also be used to connect you, if you are really
lucky, to other people who may have different surnames to you, but who
share the same DNA proving that you likely share a common ancestor. It
can also prove a more recent connection to someone of the same, or
even a different, surname in the event that you do not have a paper
trail to prove that link. <br>
The results of a DNA test are generally extremely accurate, <br>
it is a new science which is evolving all the time, but for the
purpose of genealogy it is really quite adequate. <br>
I have used Family Tree DNA and can thoroughly recommend them, they
are also the largest and most experienced company in the field, their
site will give you all the information you might need to make a
decision. <br>
Good luck ! <br>

answers3: I'm not certain on the exact information that they provide
to you (i'm sure you can find that out from their website), but as for
accuracy - 99.9%. <br>
<br>
Considering DNA tests are used as positive proof in court cases and in
paternty tests confirming a biological father, I'd say thats pretty
darn accurate.
answers4: What they can tell you is what regions of the world you have
genetic markers in common with; meaning that those are the regions
that your ancient ancestors most likely came from. What they do not
and cannot tell you is who those ancestors specifically were,
individually. They do not have DNA of specific people to be able to
tell you that your 20th great-grandfather was King so-and-so, or
anything like that.
