WILMINGTON, NC A North Carolina woman always knew she was adopted, so when she was curious about her biological parents, she took a DNA test.
The unexpected results revealed her birth father is a fugitive, who is wanted by the FBI for murder, WECT reported.
Thousands of people take a DNA test every year, but for Kathy Gillcrist, the journey to learn more about her family history started in 2017. I had the option to check a little box that says I was an adopted child and I would be interested in finding siblings or other relatives, Gillcrist said.
The first match the DNA test brought back was to her third cousin Susan Gillmor, who is a successful genealogist in Maine.
