    I have the last hair cut from my father's hair before he died at 90 years old, can DNA tell me anything about him from this?

    Specifically his heritage? Where his people came from?

    I believe one would have to have the root/bulb of the hair in order to do DNA sampling!

    You are 100% right on this, Dad59. One would have to have the root intact of the hair in order to be able to extract DNA from it. TU to you
    Definitely need the hair folicle to do DNA.
    I cannot see why not because they are exhume bodies for DNA from hundreds of years ago and gain information
    this question is a lil confusing try like re-wording it so people can understand wat ur saying
    PEOPLELOVER

    Bit like your comment.
    lil= little?
    try like= try?
    wat=what?
    ur= you are or you`re?

    Keep up the English lessons, you will get the hang of it eventualy.
