I just checked out ancestry.com and the only option is to explore my maternal lineage. Because I am a woman, I need to provide information from a relative on my father's side to get that information. The only problem is that I don't know my father or his relatives. How can I determine my ancestry on my father's side without a sample from him?

i am very interested in tracing my family history. i recently took a dna test for genetree and i am still a little confused as to understanding it. it was a maternal mitochondrial test. i also tried to put my dna into ancestry.com, but i didn't know what my mtdna regions were. if you could give me some suggestions, i would really appreciate it. thanks
