(CN) – To Mary Ann High, identifying as Mexican was all she knew. Raised in a Hispanic household in Kingsville, Texas, with a mother who prepared tamales and
capirotada – a type of Mexican bread pudding – High says she never had any indication she was growing up in a family that she was not biologically related to.
But the life and family tree that High thought she knew began to unravel in 2018 when the results of two separate DNA samples she and her husband submitted to genealogy websites for fun brought more questions than answers. She was shocked to discover her lineage wasn’t from Spain or Mexico as she expected, but consisted of mostly European DNA, primarily from England and Ireland.
