Jessica Lippincott grew up as an only child in Wyoming and didn't know she was "donor-conceived" until she did a DNA test in 2017. Last week, she told an audience for the first time that she is one of 50 half-siblings who have embraced each other as an extended family.
Thermopolis resident Jessica Lippincott grew up a small-town Wyoming girl and an only child until 2017. Now, she’s part of a thriving family with 49 half-siblings.
Lippincott has had an unorthodox life, even for a rural girl from the Cowboy State. That life was upended when she learned she had an extended family she never knew about — and never would’ve known about had she not submitted a DNA sample to 23andMe.
“It's a fascinating story,” she told Cowboy State Daily. “I always felt like I was trying to find myself, and all the questions I had growing up have been answered.”
