How can I get free y-chromosonal and ethnic dna testing?

Question:

How can I get free y-chromosonal and ethnic dna testing?

I can only trace my direct male line back to c. 1823, to the bastard son of one Hannah Bridgwaters of Stoke, St. Milborough, Shropshire, from whom we got our surname. I want to find out whether my y-chromosone is originally Saxon, Nordic or Celtic in origin and perhaps discover what my true surname should be and who the father of Thomas Bridgwater (b.c.1823) was.

Also, my mother may have Native American ancestors and I would very much like to take an ethnicity test to determine whether this is true or false. Are there any ways that I can get free genetic testing?
