Hello my Husband did a DNA test 1% Baltic 5% Welsh and 47% Scottish and 47% English his Ancestor is Daniel Robertson of the Robertson Clan King Duncan's children that was Exiled in 1651 to the America's
I must have missed if you could use My heritage DNA - I heard you couldn't use Ancestry - As I Would LOVE to be able to use the Genetic Affairs AutoKinship - If I Download my DNA that was Uploaded to Family tree DNA would that work ?
Someone told me if your nips are brown you’re not white? I’m an American man with Sicilian ancestry (parents both immigrated from Eastern Sicily in the late 50’s). I’m so confused.
At least Ancestry shows which chromosome (and maternal/paternal) those low ethnicity percentages are on. I wonder if seeing which DNA matches you match on those chromosomes might give a clue about which side(s) of the family tree that ethnicity is. At least I think it works for some of my Welsh enthnicity on one particular chromosome, which probably ties up with that biggest group of matches I have. Not sure how I relate to any of them but think they are on one particular grandparent's side. Of those hundreds of matches a few have Welsh surnames and a lot of those with trees have Welsh place names/surnames in their trees. It seems like there is just one line (one ancestor or couple) a long way back that had that chunk of DNA that has survived down the ages through many generations and become more of a population group than a family. On the other hand I may have ancestors on several lines that had that same DNA at that point. The only known Welsh ancestor traced back to be born in Wales (so far) was a 5th great grandparent, so that line accounts for some Welsh DNA if I inherited any from him. Several other lines have Welsh surnames going back but not yet traced back to places in Wales. I expect the 4% could come from a few lines adding up perhaps all between 5th-10th great grandparents. No idea how I'm 3% German?! or 4% Scottish, or between 12-18% Scandinavian. (Ancestry says 12% and MyHeritage says 18% so perhaps it's really in between, or MyHeritage just have a lot more Scandinavian people on their database or a different way of estimating it!) Maybe very few people were purely one ethnicity until you go back 1000 years or more.
The problem is Jewish is a religion not where ancestors are from. They are hiding something when DNA comes back as jewish, my dna did not come back as Christian. There is something "Other" in Jewish dna they are hiding. IMO
This LivingDNA matching algorithm is inaccurate as hell. Why the heck are half of my matches from the UK when I don't even have any connection with Northwestern Europe?
As you know for well, having all the senses records really helps having a birth record really helps having aggression in as well as a death certificate really helps. But just remember that there are specials out there in this world that can really help.
hey can i ask? maybe this is a stupid question. The question is how many people must have the same mutation. so that the mutation can be classified as a snips mutation?
There are some interesting facts about your video. Most of these genealogist were from my part of the country. In this section of the country most people belong to The Restored Church of Jesus Christ. Genealogy is a part of our religion. This section of the country boast more English blood, more Scottish blood & more Welsh blood than any section of the USA. Irish blood on the other hand is well below the National average. The reason for an unusually high amount of British blood & an unusually low amount of Irish blood was due to our successes & failures in proselyting activities. During the 19th century we were very successful with Protestants & very unsuccessful with Catholics.
You are displaying a common chart that all platforms use. You can't go off that, if you have cousin or relative marriages it changes those percentages. As for figuring out your true origins, they narrow over time, but you MUST record your DNA matches, to figure your true origins. That's where all these companies are scamming people, by not sharing this key little fact. There is NO WAY of knowing your true origins until you DO THE WORK and record each match into the family tree. Autosomal DNA matches don't tell you your exact origins, it's only "family results." That is where the scam comes into play. Would you take the test, if you were told, it will take thousands of your (precious hours) to figure out your family's true origins? The Autosomal DNA matches are 100% accurate BUT you have to do the work with those matches. YDNA and mtDNA are the tests needed to figure out "Origins," which are completely different from atDNA, and even with YDNA/mtDNA tests, you would need a huge data base built from atDNA match recordings, before you can confirm those results.

I can't tell if I am a blond, a brunette, or a redhead. I am an American. My ancestry is a mix of English, Scottish & German. By the way I am a blue-eyed man. I attribute the reddish portion of my hair to Picts & Franks.
Completely off topic. I'm just stopping in really quick to thank you both for the plethora and wealth of information you both have shared-for free- here on RU-vid. I came here 5 years ago in hopes of learning how to find my real father. I did, he passed away in 1987 at age 35 from the same heart condition I have now at age 47. I had no idea of this until I took the health dna's from all the sites. It is simple to treat, I just had to stop eating gluten! Today, I am working closely with relatives in Germany and we are at our 14th great grandparents!!!! The year 1540! We are planning a family reunion in Germany in 2029:) I see triangles everywhere😂 It's almost scary, lol! I was able to place an adopted cousin in my tree. He only lives a few blocks away and we see him every Sunday for dinner🤍 Thank you for helping me unlock so many blessings! You truly both have a gift. And thank you for sharing this gift of knowledge with me-little ole me🤍 May God bless you as much as you have blessed me🩷🌸🩷
my dad had me when he was 50 and my mom was 30, my dad is closer to my moms moms age than my moms age. my dad was born '51 my mom '71 my moms mom '31 and my dads dad '23 but my grandfathers dad was born in the late 1800s and my grandmothers mom around the 1910s so theres like a 20 year difference (or about one generation) between my two different grandparents which ALSO throws off the approximate years- i wanna understand, everything, so much more, i just dont know where to start and when i fell like im making progress stuff like this make it extra confusing.
one of the craziest thing about family trees imo is that at one point your ancestors lived at the same time but didnt know eachother and didnt know theyd eventually be related. does that make sense xD like, our 6th great grandparents all existed around the same time, probably in completely different parts of the world, and theyre all connected thru one person, you.
makes me think, cause im right around the age where people start having kids (if they didnt have them in hs or college xD) who i will eventually be related to in 200 years when their kids have kids have kids. like my great great great grandchilds 3rd great grandmother exists RIGHT NOW and is probably scrolling thru tiktok, but neither i nor her know that well be related eventually thru our grandbabies. (DOES THAT MAKE ANYSENSE AT ALL IM STRUGGLING TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO PUT IT CORRECTLY)
I did a 1to 1 and the colour was mauve for 4 different kits managed by the same person. The cM was in the 30's and the SNPs were high and MRCA about 4.1. I see the table - for density. I assume the dark blue is the most dense and therefore a better match that if the bar was blue? Thanks
OMG, this is the U-Tuber that is offensive to watch. This is not an expert, in many areas he has not got a clue but bullshits his way trying to look line one. These videos are disturbing. I give everyone of them a Thumbs down.
Just an update and question. My daughter in law results now show 9 matches parent 1 and 19 parent 2. Still the top match is only 12CM. I really need the top matches to be checked. So does anyone else only see lower matches? Or just random bad luck again?
So the minimum amount of DNA you could share with a great-grandparent would be about 6 or 7% ? If you could reply and clear any confusion i would greatly appreciate it.
The best way is to tag each document with keywords, then use a software tool to filter results of a search. If you understand that there is a many to many relationship between documents and people, my suggestion makes sense.
Not user friendly when trying to make changes. My page was fine last week. Today I am my grandfather. I can't make the change that my grandmother is not my wife. GROAN.
im sorry this is on an old video but i was curious as to why my paternal half sister got czechia in communities and i got central/northeast poland. our grandfather is polish, his ancestors came from russian partitioned poland and slovakia/austria partitioned poland ?
My husband's maternal grandfather came to America with his Italian parents . He married a non-Italian. My mother-in-law did her dna on 23 and Me and she came back 49.24% Italian. No surprise. My husband came back 24.48% Italian. Again, no surprise. Then we did Ancestry and my husband came back 2% Italian on Ancestry! Ridiculous as we know his history very well (I've done his genealogy back many generations on each side of his family. Makes me not trust Ancestry's results. On Ancestry, I came back 0% Native American. On 23 and Me I came back 1.8% Native American. My brother came back 2.1% Native American. On Ancestry we both got 0%. We know who our Native ancestor is and that she came from my mom's side of the family. My maternal great aunt came back 6.8% Native American. Brazil comes up in our ancient dna on Gedmatch.
