When I got my 23andMe ancestry results, I never anticipated I would find out my Filipina-American roots include Ashkenazi Jewish DNA. The results of my 23andMe test kit affirmed that I am from the Philippines with ties to Spain and China, but I couldn't believe what else I discovered as I began to dig deeper into my family's Philippine heritage.

This is true. If her great grandfather was 100% Spanish from Spain, her grandfather would be 1/2 Spanish, her father would be 1/4 and she would be 1/8 Spanish or 12.5%, not 4.6%. So the Spanish blood either came from a farther back generation … and/or likely from someone not pure blood Spanish. Or a number of ancestors had small amounts of Spanish blood for her to end up with 4.6%.

I feel that if there is even a slight percentage of any heritage in your DNA, you can call yourself as being part of it. Since so many Spanish who colonized the Philippine islands had children, there is a large group of Filipinos who feel they are Hispanic as well as Filipino. But if someone is denying their Asian roots and only saying they are Hispanic, even though they are born from a Filipino family, then I feel that is unfortunate that they cannot recognize all parts of themselves. I believe we should be proud of all parts of ourselves, however large or small a percentage that exists.

@RandomGuy-hx6pj Год назад

It's very likely that the Ashkenazi Jewish is actually Sephardic Jewish ancestry (23andme can't tell the difference) that you got from your Spanish ancestor. If you look at Spanish people's 23andme results, nearly all of them have a bit of Jewish in their results due to the aftermath of the Reconquista. Basically, the Jews of Spain had been given a choice: Either convert to Catholicism or be expelled. Those who chose to convert married into the Spanish population, which is why so many Spaniards have a little bit of Jewish in them.

@TESZMillan Год назад

That’s fascinating. I’m sure the Filipinos were given a similar ultimatum. Probably expulsion was permanently meant for the Filipinos.

Some Spanish Jews became Crypto-Jews due to the Spanish Inquisition and later became totally assimilated into Christian culture over the centuries. However, the Jews from that region (Spain) are referred to as Sefardim (which means Spaniards). Your DNA results are claiming possible European Jewish ancestry (which are referred to as Ashkenazi, which means "Germans"). I'm not sure how to explain that one to you. There were Ashkenazi Jews that escaped the Nazis and settled in the Philippines, but your DNA percentage should be higher if that was the case. Good luck exploring.

@TESZMillan 2 года назад

So insightful! I talk about my German ties at 7:37. Even though it's a trace percentage, I consider my Ashkenazi Jewish genes to be quite significant simply because it came up in my results at all.

Hello, May I share an Old Testament Verse with you from Daniel 7:14 "And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a Kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should SERVE Him; his dominion is an Everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom shall not pass away, and His Kingdom that which shall not be destroyed." Also, can I share Isaiah 53:5 " But HE was WOUNDED For our TRANSGRESSIONS, he was BRUISED for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon Him, and with His STRIPES we are HEALED." God the Father loves you so much that He sent Holy Sinless Jesus (His Holy Son) to earth to be born of a virgin.Then, to grow up and die on a cross for our sins. He was in the tomb for 3 days, then Father God raised Holy and Sinless Jesus Christ (Y'shua) to Life! He appeared to people and went back to Heaven. We must receive Sinless Jesus sincerely to be God's child(John 1:12).After we get saved by grace through faith in Christ, if we truly love the Lord Jesus Christ, then we will obey Jesus(John 14:15). Mark 1:15 "And saying, the time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: Repent ye, and believe the gospel." Jesus said in John 14:15 "If you love Me, keep My commandments. "There's a real hell. It says in Revelation 21:8 "But for the cowardly, & unbelieving, and abominable, and murderers, & immoral persons sorcerers & idolaters & all liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire & brimstone..." Please sincerely receive Holy Jesus & put your true faith and trust in Him today and please repent. Will you have a Real encounter with Holy Lord Jesus (Y'shua is His Hebrew Name) and stay in a Genuine relationship with Him daily please?

It's very likely that your 0.2 percent AshkenaziDNA comes from your Spanish ancestor. (23andMe can't define between Sephardic and Askenazi). If it comed from the time the USA occupied the Philippines your percentage would of been much higher because its history is more recent. But most people in hispanic-america and people from Spain get similar results due to the Sephardic Jews. If you confirm that you only have one Spanish ancestor, that 0.2 percentage is a possibility that your Spanish ancestor might have had a few Sephardic Crypto Jews "Conversos" from the 15-16 century. There is another possibility that you might have more Spanish ancestors in your admixture than what your family knows, if that's the case, your Sephardic Jewish line can be admixed with many more Spaniards. It' would be interesting to test your parents, so you can understand your admixture.

Well, here are the facts. The origin of the Jews comes from the middle east. Not from Ashkenaz, and Judaism is a system of believe, not a race. Also, to be a Jew in your heritage, you have to be Jewish mother born, and so on the mother need be born to a Jewish grand mother, and the Jewish grand mother to a Jewish grand grand mother to all the female lineage until getting to the first original Jewish people that stood at mount Sinai. If there was a Jewish father in the middle having a kid with a none Jewish mother, all that lineage from that point and on is broken and a person cannot be a Jewish by heritage. Those are the facts.

@jackieortegadesigns326 Год назад

You may have Jewish ancestry but you can't be Jewish thru DNA. Jewish identity is passed on thru the mother. The only things you can be Jewish are either your mom is a Jew at the time you were born, you have unbroken matrilineal lineage that traces back to a female Jewish ancestor or you underwent a valid formal conversion to Judaism. The reason why Ashkenazi Jewish DNA appears in 23andMe is because Ashkenazim historically married within their own clan just like how the biblical patriarchs married their half-sister, cousins and so they underwent a bottleneck and developed a unique DNA marker. Meanwhile Sephardim was more relaxed and intermarried with local converts and other Jewish groups so they didn't undergo the same bottleneck that Ashkenazim had which explains why there is no Sephardic (or Mizrahi) Jewish DNA in any DNA tests. So the comments that your Jewish DNA is really Sephardic is false.

@harrietcanary2470 Год назад

Until the Spanish Inquisition during the reign of Ferdinand and Isabella, there were many jews in Spain. So it's quite possible that came from there as well as the middle east genes could have come from when the Muslim Moors occupied Spain for 700 years.

right many ashenazi jews were living in spain ( spanish citizens with jewish heritage)... then anti jewish sentiments also became a thing back then (inquisition)... so many sailed to the fareast to start over and escape persecution

Hey Tess somehow ended up on your channel after I was researching my own ancestry - my great grandfather is a Millan! I found some info on the Millan family in Ilocos.

Hi! I recently dug up some old documents about my Filipino-Chinese paternal grandpa, and realized that he had a Sephardic Jewish surname all along (until he was trapped in China while on vacation, but that’s another story). I had photos of my great-grandma (his mom) and she didn’t look exactly like Filipino nor Chinese either. Their migration history and location also aligns with the migration of Sephardic Jews in the Philippines. Still trying to process this but yeah, thanks for sharing your story!

I'm researching right now the best DNA tests for FilipinX and I'm seeing MyHeritage, GPS Origins, TeloYears, and WeGene. I'm thinking it'll be more rounded results if my parents, sibling, and I take 4 different DNA tests. It is cool that 23Me showed the Neanderthal genes in your sibling. I'm curious to know if your biological father has taken any DNA tests. I've got relatives whose parents are both half white and half filipino, so the caucasian didn't come just from one side, but both sides, bringing out the recessive genes in the entire batch - all 5 of them have green/blue eyes, light skin, blond hair -- all on filipino features. So having the tests done on both parents I think will help understand the results of your test too. Thanks for sharing your results!

oh one more thing... since youre going in a deep dive.... Ive noticed that most filipinos that take dna tests have some (hidden) unresolved data results concerning the appearance and connection with Indigenous American dna; from low to a very high degree ....

So what happened to the indigenous American dna? Seems like they are suppressing the connection between the austronesian and the indigenous americans...(earlier they said there were no dna data on american indigenous people...but later many are more open to the idea of connections between the east asian (siberian) and indegenous north american indians... while the south american indians with melanesians) Anyway, clearly we cannot appreciate and properly interpret data if these providers are not being upfront and with holding the right information
