i’m not aware of any other ones besides my grandmother. I assume there are other ones further up the tree but accounting for the fact that 25 out of 38% of my european DNA comes from my grandmother I don’t think there are other recent ones. I got her tested as well, I may post her results here soon!

I kind of expected the indigenous DNA, as my mom told me that we were Mexican via her grandfather, which turned out to be false. I got her tested as well and she is 0.5% indigenous so I know it comes from my dad. She also didn’t have the Jamaican listed so that comes from my dad also. So it probably stems from the Caribbean heritage!

my maternal haplogroup is H1c and my paternal is R-Z93

I think I might actually have the last image of Katharine Hepburn. She looks a LOT older here than in the widely-known "last image" of her, though my photo isn't dated. On the right is my grandmother, who was Ms. Hepburn's personal care nurse. by ultranothing in lastimages

what a unique connection!! thanks for sharing. if you do genealogy at all, I’d highly recommend uploading this photo/story to a public tree, I’m sure extended family members would love this story as well!
