AncestryDNA found Pres.Warren Harding Fathered

a child out of wedlock  

AncestryDNA, a division of Ancestry.com has solved the rumor having a child out of wedlock with Nan Britton

Britton set off a scandal when she went public with her tale of forbidden love in the White House, boldly publishing her story in a 1927 best-selling memoir, "The President's Daughter." But historians long questioned her claims, and Harding defenders vilified her as a liar for nearly 90 years.

Elizabeth Ann Blaesing, was the only known offspring of the 29th president. She died in 2005.  Nan Britton died in 1991.


Another President's DNA testing confirmed Thomas Jefferson had a relationship with his slave Sally Hemings.

10 years later, most historians believe that, years after his wife’s death, Thomas Jefferson was the father of the six children of Sally Hemings mentioned in Jefferson's records, including Beverly, Harriet, Madison, and Eston Hemings.
