AbstractDescribes the author's experience using DNA analysis (in this case Y-DNA analysis) to trace the ancestry of his Swiss-American male line. Based on the tests, it appears the Steiger family line, before arriving in Switzerland, were of Scandinavian origin and possibly of Saxon ancestry residing in the Netherlands during the Middle Ages.
