The mystery of my surname, Beckmann, has never been a topic of grand discussions, but the revelations by this test have astonished me. The name, I once believed to be German, isn't just confined to Germany, but has links lying far off in the Celtic region. The potential to unravel the deep-rooted history of my ancestors, their stories that lay buried with them, the potential countries or areas they might have inhabited, and the traditions they adhered transcend beyond the realm of my family tree that I used to know.
