    ABOUT ►
    Hi there beautiful face. My name is Louise but you can just call me Kelly. Why? Well, because in third grade I had a secret Destiny's Child band with two of my friends and naturally the name stuck with me throughout my childhood, teen years and all the way into adulthood - thank you Kelly Rowland. I started this channel in late 2007 because I wanted somewhere to upload the back-then-oh-so-serious "Proof videos" because I had a popular myspace account under the name of Kelly Killjoy. I had weird hair and swore a lot and I guess people liked that or just loved to hate it. I really shouldn't put "swore" in past tense. Anyway, I came back to the channel in 2013 and started loosely making videos and after a while I was like: hey this is actually pretty cool, so from early 2015 I started doing videos once a week, and I have no idea what I'm doing! Welcome to the channel: / kellyxkilljoy

    Actually these tests have some problems with Germanic people because of the genetic similarities. In my test it appears West and North European and on my sister's say she is British and Scandinavian. But we are both only of German descent. And I know more German people that appear only Scandinavian or English. So in your test it actually trying to say that you're Germanic....

    • @jono8884
      @jono8884 Před 6 lety +4

      Ancestry calls my German Scandinavian - the closest are some ancestors from Holstein.....My Heritage was more accurate on that part but it did not have the Irish info...each company will give somewhat different results. For me, FT DNA was the most inaccurate. Paper ancestry is still important.

      Yep. And Finnish people are the original people in Northern Scandinavia. There are actually two completely different Finnish groups: Western and Eastern Finns. German and British/Irish people are genetically more close from each others. It´s because Western Finns lived around the old Swedish borders and the Eastern Finns lived in the lake areas and Karelia.

      ​@@Q8sbss Sweden actually had a national project to prove that Finnish people (people from Norrland) belongs to a Mongol race but they failed. Racial doctors measured huge amount of skulls to clarify the Aryan pureness of Southern Swedes. It was not easy because Himmel had a link to Finland and believed that Finnish Kalevala Saga was an ancient story of Aryans.

    Schleswig-Holstein was Danish territory for ages, so it's not that out there. There's also a whole pocket of French descendants in Fredericia (Jutland, West Denmark for the uninitiated), a city which a Danish king built to house Huguenot refugees after the catholic/protestant thing went sour in France.

    Your DNA is different from your brothers DNA, they may have some rough similarities but could be very different at the same time. He will need to do his own test and you will see what I mean. There are more siblings, even twins that came out completely different.
    For your Danish part, you may be southern Danish which may be faling under the German/French part. Also the Danish part could be mistaken for Dutch indeed. You may want to dig in the ancestry archives to figure out more about your family and where they were from.
    The Americas basically means North and South America, as continents and not as in country. The country is often called America, but not the real name. it should be the United States of America (USA). A common mistake many people make.
    I am more Danish and Norwegian then you and my family lived in the Netherlands for about 300 years!

    It's important to note that 'danish DNA' is normally determined by the genetic haplogroups I-1/I-1d/I1d1/I2 or R1-b/R1-a. That test really doesn't show you al that much in depth about your genetic origins. I took one myself (I'm Danish, by the way), but not on MyHeritage though. I got the I-M253, which originates in Denmark/Scandinavia, but a vast majority of my genetic matches were in the UK, Germany and some in Norway. This doesn't mean I have family or descendency from any of these countries BUT combine it with church records, and then you can make a reasonable conclusion.

      It´s true. Denmark used to have two more regions south of its borders today. They were called Schleswig and Holstein. Mainly consisting of german minded people throughout history actually. The regions were lost in 1864, yes.

    I'm curious about these DNA tests now because my whole life I've lived in the UK, I only know that I have UK family dating back to late 1900s from family tree research apart from my great-grandma from Ireland. So would I just be literally 100% British or would I actually have Scandinavian DNA because I live in North-East England where Vikings invaded and there's a wall built that ends in my city which was during the time of Roman invasions... so I'm curious.

  • @deadleafecho800

    @pelontorjunta Před 5 lety +5

    The Finnish (or better Finno-Ugric) ancestry results is perhaps the most reliable of all European ancestries. According genetic studies the change that your Finnish percentage (about 4-5%) is correct is 96% while if they are suggesting Swedish/Norwegian share their reliability is just 46%. So almost everybody having that Finnish ancestry tracked can be pretty sure that it not some "statistical noise".

    • @moisuomi

    Definitely try submitting your dna to ancestry. My results for heritage dna were very different to my ancestry dna results which for the most part better follow my family’s knowledge of our ancestry. However heritage dna did give me the nice chunk of Scandinavian I feel like I deserve (both of my mom’s great grandparents were from Norway so I would have expected mine to be maybe 25% but ancestry only gave me 8%!). But my ancestry dna shows me as being half German which is quite accurate since i have many ancestors from there while heritage gave me no northwest european ancestry at all!) I really wonder which test out there is the most accurate~ ah also a lot of people have told me I look Dutch too! 🤣 Could be because everything is so close! Loved the video ❤️❤️

    My mother did this and we expected her to be mostly German and British. The results were 25% Scandinavian which we did not expect at all.

    I was told my dad's side was 100% Spaniard, so I was surprised when I did a DNA test for myself and my dad. Then on my mom's side I was told British and German. It turns out that my paternal grandfather is Native American and my grandmother is mostly Spaniard, but a few other things. I'm also 12% Danish! I was not expecting that at all. Maybe I need to make a Danish CZcams channel now lol

    now upload all your results to gedmatch and wegene to find more detailed answers to your results. Both companies use more ancient forms of DNA to tell you your results.

    You will get different results with different testing companies too.

    Siblings could potentially share no DNA. On average, you'll share between 1/2 and 1/4 autosomal DNA. Also, run your data through GedMatch and a few different models and you could get different results. MyHeritage has a relatively small database.

    Anglo-Saxons came from that peninsula. Prussians were trading throughout that area too, centuries later.

    This is hilarious, you're Scandinavian and come back as North-West-European, and I'm German and I got ZERO North-West-European, but Scandinavian, British and Eastern European (this one is true)!! You could also pass for Germans or Eastern Europeans, I think!! - Jon Snow 😂😂!!

  • @SolSkinn
    @SolSkinn Před 6 lety

    Lol! I live in the states and my DNA is 70% Scandinavian :) My father is half Danish and my mom is Norwegian. We were supposed to be the rest German, but no... irish. Lol!

  • @trenchrock
    @trenchrock Před 6 lety

    My test said I was 22% Scandinavian, haha. I think the western Europe includes part of Denmark though because it overlaps in the northern sections. I'm also 34% Western European, 6 % Irish and the rest is Eastern European.

  • @linajurgensen4698

    I‘m german and pls don’t forget that „Schleswig-Holstein“ in Germany was part of Denmark for nearly 1000 years same with half of Poland actually was always Prussian/German... for a much longer time than it was slavic.

  • @hannahbrewer2197

    You guys need to redo this and take an Ancestry test. They are far more accurate than MyHeritage, and they are way more precise in their region differentiation.

  • @wildcorn5443
    @wildcorn5443 Před 6 lety

    English, Germans, and Danes all have very similar DNA markers. MyHeritage DNA has a problem telling apart basic ethnicities such as telling Germans apart from Brits, French apart from Spanish, or Siberian apart from Native South American. I suggest you do a more reliable test, like AncestryDNA or 23andme. They have a much larger database than MyHeritage does, so they will be able to tell apart Scandinavian people from Germans or Brits. After that, you can download your raw data and upload it to a free site called "Gedmatch.com", and you can screw around with that site a little bit.

    Danish people come from germanic mixed with finnish and scandanavian backround.

    • @moisuomi
      @moisuomi Před 3 lety

      Yeah... no. Danes have more German DNA than actual Scandinavian and no, Finns are not mixed with Danish.

  • @jono8884
    @jono8884 Před 6 lety +1

    Don't feel bad, my German ancestry is called Scandinavian! The closest to Scandinavia is Holstein. So, yes, it may be that the populations are too close to separate out. Plus, the estimates are based on more distant dna results.

    • @Kasarii
      @Kasarii Před 6 lety +2

      Holstein was Danish territory for ages, so some "blending" would be expected. It's like telling Danes and Jutes apart - way too late, though they were originally two tribes.

  • @chancellorpuddinghead

    I want to take a test too :'( By the way, your brother looks pink, like many German boys.

  • @lloydrasmussen554
    @lloydrasmussen554 Před 6 lety +1

    That's funny, my mom thought she was French and German, and MyHeritage said she was 90.0% Scandanavian, 5% Spanish and 5% African.

    There was continental european migration in Scandinavia during bronze and iron age.
    This explains even the presence of a celtic tribe Cimbri in jutland in the time of the roman empire.
    Europe have a huge long history of interactions anyways .

    *A lot of these DNA testers can give conflicting results

    • @buk1237
      @buk1237 Před 6 lety

      Also the results can be more accurate for men because they have XY instead of XX chromosomes, so your brothers results may differ.

    • @pvtrowden
      @pvtrowden Před 6 lety

      The result will most definitely differ with the way DNA works you and her brother might be similar but you wont have the same DNA, say one parent is 50%Danish 50%German, and the other parent is 50%Danish 50%Russian. That means you could be 100%Danish and her brother could be 50%German 50%Russian. While you do get 50% of your genes from each parent the genes passed on aren't always the same you can have a little bit of each side but not always. It's actually pretty cool how genetics actually works and I suggest having your parents take a test as well so you can see just how different you really are.
