Let me start by saying that the journey with iGENEA has been robustly emotional and utterly fulfilling.

I've always felt a sense of magnetism towards it, despite the slightly meager knowledge of its roots.
Submitting my DNA sample to iGENEA for analysis was nothing short of transformative. The process was immaculate – easy, swift, completely hassle-free. It was surreal, to think that in the 21st century, we can delve into the cellular level to fetch history and stories buried within our genes.

When I finally received the test results, the revelations were startling. The name Nathan, I learned, resonated much deeper in the annals of human history than my immediate family tree. I was led down an ancestral path spanning continents I'd never even set foot on, encountering generations I hadn't even imagined; people sporting the Nathan surname, living, loving, strategizing, suffering. It was overwhelming.
The emotional journey didn't stop there, though. The discovery that my lineage was connected to notable personalities in history was humbling and engrossing at the same time. Sensing a connection to roomful of well-known Nathans in various epochs was a whole roller-coaster ride. This shared surname seemed to stitch together a historical tapestry that was too vivid to ignore.
Every disclosed detail about my ancestry seemed to reinvigorate a sense of identity, a stronger connection with my surname, and a newfound pride in my family history. Unravelling these biological narratives stirred feelings of kinship and belonging that were, until now, dormant in my heart.
