DNA Test Reveals Moorish Roots and Unknown Migration Patterns of Soto Ancestors
Family name Soto
The DNA test conducted by iGENEA has unveiled the deeply rooted Moorish ancestry and undisclosed migration patterns of my ancestors named Soto, instigating a new fascination towards my familial history.
Throughout my life, my family lineage remained somewhat of a mystery. Tracing back the roots and trying to discover my ancestors often led to dead ends. However, a recent DNA test through iGENEA has provided me with unexpected insights and a clearer understanding of my Soto heritage. The revelation that I had Moorish roots dating back to the 8th century was both humbling and enlightening.
As someone who had always assumed a straightforward Hispanic lineage, the revelation of Moorish ancestry was shocking. iGENEA's detailed DNA analysis uncovered the migration pattern of my ancestors from the Middle East to Spain, further confirming these origins. The discovery provided me with a fresh perspective about the history of my bloodline and ignited a newfound interest in Moorish history and culture.
The report also revealed unknown migration patterns of my ancestors. The Soto side of my family, whom I had always associated with Spain, appears to have roots in Portugal as well. This new information instigates a profound sense of fascination and curiosity to delve deeper into this previously unexplored branch of my family tree.
Moreover, the fact that my ancestors were seafarers who traveled between Europe and the Americas during the 16th century further enriched my understanding of the Soto lineage. Their history of exploration and voyage inspires me, providing me with a deep sense of motivation to keep exploring and discovering, integral to my own life’s trajectory.
Finally, this understanding has also provided a new sense of identity. For years, I had identified purely based on my present family and its immediate history. Now, with the broader picture of my ancestry from the Soto lineage, I have a newfound respect for identity, both personally and collectively.
In conclusion, this journey has led to an unexpected and enlightening understanding of my roots. The iGENEA DNA test has been an instrumental tool in unearthing the history of my ancestors, offering personal enrichment and influencing my own sense of identity.
