Not from what I've read. It's basically a snapshot of approximately 50% from each parent (but that can even vary since my percentages can even differ from my sister's!) and it drills back very far to your family's original origins.

If it were recent, I wonder how that would be since it takes a LONG time on most of my Dad's side before I even leave the U.S. There's one fourth great grandfather where I can't find where he was born and that's the youngest. The rest go back to 7th, 8th even 10th great grandparent before the parent is foreign-born.

Mom's side, who is the one I have had trouble tracing I've gotten stuck relatively early. I'm tempted to see if I can Mom to take a DNA test if I get one on sale again. I'd love to have both parents test to compare their percentages to mine
