Maybe i is worth to do also 23AndMe and FamilyTreeDNA tests. This article shows that through very detailed analysis of DNA tests results it may be possible to solve very hard mysteries:

Hi, I am writing to you Poland. My mother was born during the war in Poland to a Jewish family, her DNA shows 100% Jewish heritage with almost 100 Ashkenase DNA. During the war she was only 1-3 years old, she lived in Jędrzejów. She was found by Poles as almost a newborn and put in a secret place where she survived the war. During the war, she was a small child and does not remember her family, her original name, absolutely nothing. The Polish government gave her a false birth certificate along with her date of birth and we know absolutely nothing about her family. I tried to find absolutely EVERYTHING and who knows, maybe you can help me? Maybe you have some information about your family from Poland? Only DNA testing can help.
If I fail now, I will never find my family again. We have DNA on FTDNA and ancestry.com - Barbara Stawińska

I wish you all the best, be safe and healthy!
Bart
