This ancestry test will link you to the countries, cities or even island from which your ancestors came. Begin your quest to discover your roots.
About This Test
Where exactly did your ancestors come from? In which countries do your true origins lie? Begin a journey of discovery to uncover the countries, cities, or islands your ancestors came from.
The GPS Origins™ Test combines the latest research in genealogy and genetics with an advanced ancestry tracking tool called Geographic Population Structure (GPS). This innovative method allows the test to pinpoint your ancestral origins with remarkable accuracy, often down to specific regions or towns.
Results are available within 4 to 6 weeks from the time your samples are received at the laboratory.

What will your results show?
The results are provided as an online interactive report. Please note that the PDF you may view is only a sample.
These results are a rich source of information for you and your family, offering a deep dive into your ancestry. The interactive report includes:
Extensive gene pool analysis
Your autosomal DNA is compared against 36 global gene pools to calculate your genetic signature. This analysis connects you to specific regions where your ancestors likely originated, such as Southern France, Sardinia, the Basque Country, or Northern India.
Gene Pool Percentages – Top 3
You’ll see your top three gene pools with percentages, highlighted on an interactive map showing the corresponding regions.

Historical information
This section compares your DNA to populations studied around the world to trace where your earliest ancestors came from and where they settled. It includes background information on historical events, agriculture, and possible migration reasons. These insights are also presented on a map for visual context.
Explore your ancestry like never before with a personalized, interactive experience.

Your DNA and your Origins: How does GPS Origins™ make the links?
The laboratory compares your unique DNA signature against a database of 10,000 genetic profiles collected from 862 global populations, each tied to a specific geographical location.
Unlike today, ancient human migration was relatively limited. Most people lived and died in the same region. However, certain groups did migrate, intermarrying and blending with local populations. These interactions led to the formation of new genetic signatures over time.
With the GPS Origins™ test, even though your DNA is entirely unique, it can be traced back to the ancestral populations and regions it came from. This provides a detailed look into the genetic journey that shaped who you are today.
How recent and precise is GPS Origins™?
The GPS Origins™ test is a powerful tool for tracing your more recent ancestry, going back approximately 1,000 years from today. In most cases, your DNA will be linked to specific countries, regions, or general directions such as North, South, East, or West.
In some instances, the test can even narrow down your origins to a specific island, town, or village, giving you an incredibly detailed view of where your ancestors came from.
Confirming what you might know about your roots with GPS Origins™
Most people explore their ancestry to gain a fuller understanding of their family tree. However, without the right tools such as DNA testing or expert help from genealogists, many eventually hit a dead end in their research.
You might believe you have French, Turkish, Russian, English, or German roots—but how certain are you? The GPS Origins™ test gives you the ability to confirm or challenge what you think you know, helping you determine whether your family stories and assumptions truly align with your genetic history.
