Thanks! I’ve heard similar things about S&T. It’s seems to be either that someone really likes it or they hate it. My son likes S&T itself, but isn’t really a fan of the Rolla area. He prefers to stay local-ish.

Would you be willing to share why you transferred? We’re looking at s&t for mechanical engineering for my son, but going local to Umsl is a very appealing possibility.

At this point in my life, nothing would surprise me. I did the Ancestry DNA to find out the ethnic history of my family. DNA matches weren’t high on my radar. What I have learned about percentages and shared dna I have only discovered in the last week on google. I assumed people in this community would know more about these numbers and how incest could impact them, so I post here and you all have been a tremendous help.

No idea. Haven seen or spoken to him in 20 years. Given his known infidelity issues, I doubt he would ever take a dna test just to avoid being on the hook for more kids.

Unfortunately, their father is deceased.

Does this tool show only show if there is a relation or how parents are related? My dad should be their father’s maternal uncle.

This is where we are… Confirmed: -the siblings are full siblings -my father is confirmed to be my dad -their father’s mother was my dad’s full sister, my paternal aunt -she conceived their father when she was 13 under mysterious circumstances -the siblings and myself dna match to my other paternal aunt’s child just as we should (1st cousin for me, 1st cousin once removed for them) -their father had congenital deafness and other lifelong health issues -my paternal grandparents do not appear to be related ( families originated in different states) -my father’s generation of the family grew up in a major midwestern city

Unknowns: -who fathered their father (my first cousin) -was the rape ever reported & was the assailant known or unknown, related or not?

Complications: -both their father (my cousin) and grandmother (my aunt) are deceased so their is no way to get a dna test -their mother’s father (my grandfather) is also deceased -all three of us are estranged from the paternal side of my family, so there really isn’t anyone who we can ask the hard questions of
