Father Look-alike Competition: Win a MyHeritage DNA Kit!
Back in July 2015, we held a look-alike photo competition and asked users to send in look-alike pictures of family members from different generations. The results were incredible. In some cases descendants were so similar to their ancestors, it seemed as though we were looking at photos of the same person.
With Father’s Day coming up next month, we’ve decided to re-open the look-alike competition again, this time for children and fathers.
Have you heard all your life that you look exactly like your father? Do you have any photos of yourself and of your dad that make you do a double-take? We want to see the uncanny resemblances between the two of you, and we’re offering one lucky winner the chance to win a MyHeritage DNA kit!
Send in your family photos, and details about the people in your photos to stories@myheritage.com by June 18, 2017, for a chance to win. We’ll post the top photos on the blog.
Good luck — We look forward to seeing your photos!

This is for my family, but especially for my grandchildren!
It’s a perfect gift!
Really would like to know my family.
I would love to win an ancestry DNA kit
I have adopted a six year old and would love to know her exact nationality.A big part of the reason I want to do this is because my dad was adopted (and is deceased) so I don’t have any information. I don’t think I look like him, but I’d still like to win!

My son favors my (mother’s) side of the family…looks like my brother, my uncle, and my granddad no resemblance to dad or his dad’s side of family!
Would be a perfect gift!
This is for my family
My grand paw Brown Drove Eisenhower in WW2
I need this to find my brother
Learning of my Dad and finding my birth mother would be a heart settling fix for me. I’m 69 years old and have never been able to find or learn about her, or my brother whom I’ve never met or at least remember seeing as a 3 year old. My family who would know some information are all deceased and always avoided telling me anything when they were alive.
My parents have done it and I would love my husband to do it so my son can have his heritage from both of us.
I bought a DNA test for my daughter and myself and would like to win one for my grandson.
Would love this for my dad.
This would be a great Father’s Day gift!
Would be great to confirm / verify family connections for the generations
I know my fathers mother was full blood native american but, there is no one left alive to tell us what tribe she belong to. The family moved to Texas around 1900 from Kentucky
Would love to find for myself. Received calls from others with same last name…..some tell we are French and others tell me we are from Spain. Love to know and settle it once and for all.
I would love to find ancesters, interested in my family background so much
My husband and son were similar as toddlers. I would love to DNA testing on myself to find out my heritage
I love this wonderful prize for my husband for Fathers Day!
Just want to see if it works
Would really like to find out the truth, about what we have been told all these generations, of our heritage. Is it true and accurate.
Would like to know if our history we have been told is true and accurate
Would love to do it my father was born in Sicily.
Thank you. This would be a great gift.
Would be nice to know something from the family past.
It would be a wonderful gift for my husband to know his family
Really want to find my real roots from Amsterdam in Holland to Cape Town in South Africa
I would love to find anyone who looks like me
