Ancestry DNA Testing
Who am I? Where did I come from? Where did my ancestors originate from? These are common questions for Americans – and everyone from age 7 to age 77 is likely to ponder them several times throughout a lifetime. At Test Smartly Labs you can get an ancestry DNA test to have your questions answered. You don't need to worry about a thing; we handle all of our own testings, and we are are able to provide you with comprehensive answers delivered with 100% confidence.
Use DNA To Discover Your History
While some families have maintained strong genealogical records detailing the stories of individuals in past generations, many do not have any idea where they came from.
Some cities and websites offer genealogical databases where you can scour old papers, books, and ledgers from hundreds of years ago to find answers to your family history questions. With a DNA test, this hours-long struggle of tracking down all the right documents becomes far less important. Our tests give the ability to trace your bloodline from continent to continent, connect you with potential family members that you never knew, and identify medical predispositions to be on the lookout for. You can even gift this test just for fun, and many a rewarding conversation has been motivated by accurate ancestry testing.
How Does The DNA Test Work For Ancestry?
But did you know an ancestry DNA test can offer additional insights for your personal research (or save you a lot of time) – all with a simple cheek swab? With the ability to test for over 80,000 individual DNA markers that most commercial tests can't begin to identify, Test Smartly Labs provides the surest path to DNA ancestry clarity. Given how important this information is, why would you risk going with a less reliable option?
At Test Smartly Labs we are glad to do everything we can and provide every resource to help you understand your heritage more than ever before. Contact us today.

Discovering Your Past, Learning Your History, and Uncovering your Heritage
When many people think of laboratory blood tests, they imagine making an appointment at their doctor's office, taking time off work, paying large fees, and waiting around in the lobby for who knows how long
What Will The DNA Test Tell Me?
The test will look for DNA matches between your sample and those within the genetic database. It will measure the likelihood that your DNA is linked with the DNA from people in certain populations and regions and help show your family history.
Further, you will have the opportunity to see the ethnicities and cultural contexts of your ancestors based on their geographic locations.
At the end of the day, we can’t tell you what to make of the information, but we’re glad to help our customers bridge gaps and grow in understanding of the lives of their ancestors.
