- In this Professional Genealogist Reacts I watch "We Took a DNA Test" by LadyLike. In this video Jhulianna Cintron from 23andMe presents the DNA test results to Chantel Houston, Freddie Ransome, Devin Lytle, and Kristin Chrico. I had never seen LadyLike before but realized I do recognize many of the cast members from Buzzfeed.

The girl with the glasses might have a mother that is/was part Hispanic/Mexican. Iberian and Native Am numbers might indicate that
Stephen, Plus she has the looks of those areas. Since her Mom was adopted she truly has no clue.
There's been an update on Kristin (glasses) via her social media via research and reconnection with biological family members.
Her maternal grandfather was Native American.
I finally get why people are obsessed with those unpacking products videos..I guess watching people unpack data on their DNA through DNA kit products just happen to be my Thang atm
This is really interesting to see the views of an actual professional genealogist. Great channel
I know our family myths were Native American (dad's side) Jewish (mom's side) 0% of either. (not even traces)
What do you mean with either?
As an indigenous person, a lot of enslaved Black people became a part of different nations via adoption. So it’s totally possible that someone on her Black side was in effect Native just not “biologically”.
I really like your videos! I’m currently diving into my ancestry, and am enjoying all these videos. Also, you’re really good looking 😊
To be totally accurate, many native American tribes don't use blood quantum to establish tribal members. For example the 5 civilized tribes ( Chickasaw, Creek, Choctaw, Seminole and Cherokee) use the Department of Indian Affairs Dawes Rolls.
You're correct. Many of the native tribes are actually opposed to DNA testing. I have a story. My nephew was documented 25% Cherokee Nation by the Cherokee Tribe. He was always reluctant to take a DNA test because it would likely show less than 25% native American. He died unfortunately while still young. After his death I worked quite a bit on his father's genealogy side (my sister was his mother). Well, what I found was he was also 'technically' 25% Choctaw Nation. He didn't know that. A DNA test would have likely reported better than 25%.
Genetics aren't everything. There is more to ethnicity than genes. For example, you can have Jewish DNA, but there is more to being an ethnic Jew than having such and such DNA.
Is it possible that Europeans with a small amount of Native Blood can maintain control through this manner?
I have my card from the Department of Indian Affairs Dawes Rolls since I was a child. But I needed a new card because it was so old and falling apart. I had to send my birth certificate to prove that they were born on the reservation. I sent my lab DNA results from Yale and I received my new card 2 weeks later. I am proud to have it. ✊🏼
DNA testing is the most accurate, indian affairs rolls were changed and doctored many times by natives gaming the system and claiming whichever tribe would give them the most benifits
I have an African American friend who, growing up, was always told that he had an American Indian grandmother, but he grandmother eventually told him that HER grandmother was white. The family was embarrassed about that, so hid the fact for years.
Sometimes DNA doesn’t carry down to every person within the family for example I have native Canadian ancestry within my family tree but the DNA has not passed down to me based on my DNA tests. So just because you don’t have the DNA doesn’t mean you’re not related to somebody who is indigenous.
Hmm, some thing should have picked up...
@@mariaguinsburg5092 Not if it is very small amounts. My brother got less than 1% and I got none.
@@mariaguinsburg5092 No not necessarily. The geneticists have confirmed this. This is why you can have distant Italian ancestry in your family and have siblings who may show it, but you wont. It depends on what was passed down to you.
Facts
Exactly, we inherit exactly half from mom and half from dad. Which means we don’t inherit it the other half.
Not only this, but of the 23 chromosomes from mom, 11 might be from her mom (your maternal grandmother) and 12 from her dad (maternal grandfather).
So it’s not the case that you get exactly 25% from each grand parent. Some grandparents will give you more than 25% which means the other will be pass on less than 25%.
I'm African American and was told i had Native American in me my whole life. Even as a child i didnt believe it one bit, took the DNA test, welp..... it was true lol couple percent native both northern and southern american, i was very shocked.
Haha great video to react to. Just subscribed. Nicka Smith and Black Pro Gen Live are still my favorite though. They have credible people from IAAM and NMAAHC on all the time.
Another great source for African American genealogy on youtube is Journey Through the Generations with husband/wife duo Phillip and Trisha Cummings. They are still building their youtube channel but I had the chance to talk with Phillip at a conference recently and I think they are definitely a channel to keep an eye on! czcams.com/channels/DVodHWarer8oea90hmbG9Q.html
I'm 57% Native but was really excited to find out I'm 3% Basque.
I had heard basques who immigrated to the US settled around Idaho because it resembled the part of Spain they were from. Are you from that area?
Dope 👌🏽
Nice! Basques are also native, although we don't usually think of Europeans that way. (I'm half Basque.) There's a lot we don't know about Basque history and origins, but I hope you enjoy exploring and getting to know a bit about your ancestors. It's a beautiful part of the world with delicious food and a rich culture. As a nod to your Basque side, you can wear a beret if you'd like (called a txapela in Basque).
@@gj1234567899999 Don't forget Elko, NV which has a HUGE Basque population.
@@iunderscoream as far as I know, Basques are indigenous to the Iberian Peninsula, the same way the Celts were indigenous to the British isles. Basque is considered a separate language group, while most of the Spanish languages belong to Romance language group.
Thank you for being so frank and informative about the injection of European ancestry into the African American bloodlines
True about that Native American thing. It is found to be unfounded in many AA’s DNA. Which I found from checking my own DNA. And the thing about the cheekbones I realized that many African tribes had high cheek bones so there’s that.🤷🏽♀️. Just look at old photos of Africans native to Africa. I find ancestry and this whole DNA thing fascinating.
I was elated to make a connection to two people born in West African countries who were DNA matches to me. It gave me an idea of where and what tribe a couple of my West African ancestors may have been from. I sometimes get so upset that those of us who are descendent from those enslaved West African people brought to America can only trace the mAfrican side of our ancestry but so far and most of us will never be able to know many of our relatives that extend beyond maybe 4 - 5 or so generations from our African ancestry which is most of our DNA makeup. In my case, I connected to those two people who are likely my 4th - 5th generation cousins.
Man, if I had any money to hire someone to help me research, I think it'd be you. I'd also find it fun to video the whole process. heh.
While I do agree that many black people do have family lore tales of Native ancestors ( like Skip Gates has shown) it is not always a fake claim. Being so dismissive of the young lady’s pre result assumption is simply unfair, as we saw her she was correct regardless of how fractional.
I would add that there isn't a good data base for native heritage, so that might also reflect in her results. Also, I think people forget that someone can identify with a culture and language rather than dna result or local; really I think that is how most of us do think of ourselves. I don't think it would be unusual if some of her ancestors were "adopted" in a sense by local tribes and maybe that is reflected in family lore. I often think of myself as more Polish than I am because I knew my great grandmother and grandmother who were fully Polish, so those were the stories and language I was around. It's not as reflected in my dna, but it's how I tend to think of my ancestry.
The young lady has no NA blood period. It's obviously hard for her to accept. The look on her face when she heard the other lady's NA dna results said enough. She pissed she doesn't have enough NA dna and pissed that she has too much white dna!!
@@Dirtnap1986 she did have some, did you watch it?
Less then 1% which they just added for no reason
Yeah, I was always told I was part native American. My grandma got .9 percent. But my mom got none of that, instead we found out we were fairly Jewish. Ashkenazi on my grandfathers side, my grandapa was 12%, my mom 5% and I was 3% percent Ashkenazi.
The lady wearing glasses who has Iberian/Native American most likely has a Latino/a ancestor. She looks: her eyes, and cheekbones.
There's an Irish channel that did a video like this I'd love to see you react to. It was either the Try Channel, or Facts.
That was a good one and you should check it out if you haven't already!
I'm african American and I have native American ancestory. 🤷♂️ most of my family does. And yes we were tested.
It's rare though
Get the scholarships
As my tribal Nation ( Chickasaw) is a part of the 5 civilized tribes, you might want to check out the Seminole tribe. At some point the Seminole Nation was comprised of many run away slaves. Many of my African American friends are part Seminole. However don't root for Florida State as they suck.
@@thomasrocker7408 my is from the kiowa tribe.
@@roseandstem8054 it's not as rare as people think... sometimes it's just too down the line to show up on a test... basically bred out. It shows on mine but not my daughter's test... also most of my older family shows it but less with younger ones. Each Generation it cuts down unless you are mixing more or huge percentages with it.. We have and know our family history (it's documented), even have ancestors on the dawes list. but still it doesn't show in all of us like I mentioned because it chopped every generation we don't mix with it.
What’s the most accurate and best dna test to do?
Your autosomal-DNA will be the same by any reputable company. Their ethnic estimates will vary as they are dependent upon their Reference Groups and the algorithms used to make those estimates. These estimates improve over time, so whichever company you choose you should look again every so often. I have taken five autosomal tests, so: If you plan to do a genealogy tree I recommend Ancestry. You can attach your DNA matches to your tree, which makes their ThruLines program increasingly better. You can attach 23andMe matches together on a tree on 23andMe, but you have to know who they are before you can do that accurately. If you have a large certainty of British Isles, Living DNA has reference groups for more specific regional information than any other company. If you're also interested in Y-DNA and mito-DNA then Family Tree DNA is the best choice; that gets expensive, but I also suggest the full tests: YDNA111 and Big-Y.
Very interesting!
I don't really know much about my ancestry aside from my Maternal Great Grandmother being a German immigrant and there definitely being some British ancestry on my paternal side.There's also a family story on my Mom's side that we have some Native American ancestry. I've always found this really interesting and have wanted to find out for sure what my ancestry is. So I finally was able to take a 23andMe test and just got the results back. They were 54.4% French and German, 32.4% British and Irish, 2.8% Scandinavian, 8.3% Broadly Northwestern European, 1.2% Eastern European, 0.5% Nigerian, and 0.2% trace ancestry that is Angolan & Congolese as well as Broadly Sub-Saharan African.
I hope to learn enough to not get so discouraged when I seriously begin to create a written illustrated family tree! How do I find Irish Ancestors whose offspring went to USA?
I lalalaalovvvvve your channel. I’d love to be a genealogist. I love Family history and languages but I’m also a maternal and child health educator, lactation consultant, and future midwife..I want to combine all lol.
Hi I'm wondering if you could help. My Dad's side of the family is Romany/scottish and never moved from the area they were born in, Aberdeenshire. So, when my cousin gave her Dad, my Father's cousin, a DNA test for his birthday it came back with a high percentage of Native American????? Could this be a glitch?
I think the African American young lady shouldn't have been so shocked that there was European ancestry as well. I think it would be a bit more unusual for there not to be. It is nice that she was able to connect personally to an area of Africa for which she already felt an affinity.
This is really interesting 🧐
My husbands family (both of his parents actually) claim to have Native American ancestry. If it "supposedly" came from both sides, it would show in their DNA. My husband and his sister both did Ancestry DNA tests. English, Irish, Scottish, and Welsh. No Native DNA. I knew that I would have some because my grandmother was a member of a Chippewa tribe in Michigan. I was hoping it would be higher than it was though. I am: England & Northwestern Europe 42%, Scotland 33%, Ireland 14%, Sweden 5%, Indigenous Americas - North 4%, Norway 2%.
All my life I've claimed Anglo/Saxon/Celtic/Cherokee. Don't have the means to do a DNA test yet. One cousin did her's & said we are NOT Cherokee but Creek. Thing is my grandmother & both her sister's are the ones who told me my grandfather's mother WAS 💯% Cherokee. His father followed her tribe on the Trail of Tears & brought her back to Alabama as his bride. NOW I have to question science or 3 female members of the family. Of course the cousin could be getting Creek from the paternal side of her family.
Gene, PLEASE advise me as to which DNA test sight would be the best for me. My goal is to test by 2022. This is of vital interest to me.
I did a MyHeritage test and i literally was so so so surprised! I am 59.4% Nigerian, 8.9%Kenyan, 8.0%West African (i'm assuming they couldn't find which countries) 3.0% North African
13.7% South Asian and 1.2% Nepali My dad always knew his grandmother came from India but he has no idea where his grand father came from! i will be getting dna tests for my mom and my dad and i will definitely let u know lol
😮😮😮.. You're practically Nigerian... Some Nigerians don't even have up to that amt
@@egunjobiamina2168 most of the ones I've seen are higher. Mb a few wasn't that high but most were higher.
I also have mixed African and South Asian ancestry. I was born and still live here in Africa and so were my parents. Our South Asian ancestors were mostly slaves brought to southern Africa by Europeans to work on plantations or building and stuff like that, but we actually don't know much about our southern African heritage (probably because of the hundreds of years of colonialism and systemic racism in southern Africa) so I would love to find out more. The percentage of my South Asian DNA is much higher because my dad is more South Asian than my mom (who is about half South Indian, quarter southern African, and quarter European - probably British, Dutch or German). But yeah I would love to actually find out more about actual people and specific geographic areas rather than an entire region of a continent. If I could connect to that side of my mom's family through a DNA test that shows you relatives then that would be awesome and I would be into doing a test.
i remember the first time my ancestry results changed, i was so disappointed. My 10% Iberian was gone, it was one of my main ones and was totally in line with my known family history of two different ancestors migrating from Spain, and having a very Spanish surname that i spent my entire childhood having to spell out for people. i was bummed it was 'taken away' then again i am lucky enough to know a lot of my family history and know how quickly the percentages can disappear from generations, so at the same time it doesn't change my family history or take away my spanish roots that are still apart of me. Even if a dna test doesn't show native american for some americans who have it far back doens;t necessarily mean they don't have that ancestry. My great grandfather was jewish, i've had my mother and grandmother tested, my gran was 50% jewish, my mother only 20%, and I'm under 10%, my children could inherit all that or none of it or barely any. Doesn't change their known ancestry.
DNA tests isn't really an exact science.
They even disclose it is for entertainment purposes.
I wouldn't focus too much on the numbers. Your results don't mean your family stories are wrong and they also don't mean the test was wrong either. Your family probably did migrate from Spain. Like you said, it's possible you just didn't inherit those genes, but it's also possible your ancestors originally migrated to Spain from elsewhere, lived in Spain for some time, and then migrated again. In any case, this doesn't mean your family isn't Spanish, because ancestry isn't just based in DNA, it's also based in culture and traditions.
Spanish people are not 100% "Spanish" they break down into their own migration patterns.
It's funny how Henry Louis Gates absolutely loves to debunk that Native American myth amongst "black" Americans unless it's true than he says nothing about it. I still love his series though. In regards to "black" Americans having some NA ancestry, it depends on if your from states that NA interacted a lot with "black" people in general...there were also a huge population of free people of color. Some NA tribes had "black" slaves and some of the descendants are called Freedmen like Cherokee Freedman for example. In other cases many escaped slaves found refuge with the Seminole tribes who at times had mixed chiefs like John Horse who moved some of his people to Oklahoma then Mexico. In New Orleans it is a literally a gumbo of mix of many free people of color mixed with everything. In North Carolina the Lumbee tribe is a mix of Indigenous,European and African. So in many cases, some "black" Americans can have trace ancestry or more depending where you are from.
I've heard him discuss it when proven, he doesn't dismiss it
Wish they would do more on the African DNA break down. I need help. Thanks
My Indigenous ancestry goe's back before 1494..my Mother(Otoe) & Father (Kiowa)were full-bloods ..since the 1900's & Intermarriage in Oklahoma.. However, Many White's, Black's, Spanish, Irish etc.are married to Indigenous people here,now...my Grandchildren are Spanish/Mexicali, Irish, Black,..etc.
I did the MyHeritage DNA test. Since I am German I expected 100% European... Hell was my family surprised when it showed only 95% European a 5 % central Asian. I later did the same test with my grandfather who is a professional genealogist and he came out as 9% central asian.... We habe no vlue where this is coming from
Migration from central Asia. Looong time ago. I am German with 3% African.
I was going to put it out there that Canada and the US both practiced and still practice separation and adoption of Native American/First Nations children and maybe her mother was just another statistic. So sad and heartbreaking.
They call it the 60s scoop in Canada
The 5 civilized tribes do not allow Native children to be adopted by non natives.
@@NugsMitchell yes ma’am 1960 all the way up to December 1991 is considered scoop or “adopted out”
I think there are a few loop wholes tho - I’m adopted native to a white family - via private adoption agency- I think the rule is the government can’t adopt native children out that are in government custody or foster care - and that is a different adoption thing - but if the birth mother chooses via private adoption I don’t think they can stop her - my birth mother specifically chose a white family because she believe that was my best chance at having a successful life as she had grown up in the foster care system due to the 60s scoop
My results got updated many times. I went from 96% African to 74% 😭😭
I did the test by CRI Genetics and results actually shocked me to the point of disbelief. The results showed 50% European 40.9 African and 9.1 west indies. I knew my grandfather was half Italian but the 21.6 German from most likely my grandmother was shocking. I'm still in denial!
I was told by an older relative that our family is Pasquotank. When my sister and I took the test, my sister has indigenous dna and I have none at all. I have asian dna. I think some African Americans are related to extinct tribes. I think some indigenous people originated in asia. Otherwise, I can't pinpoint why I have asian dna.
All Native American people originated in northeast Asia. They migrated over to the Americas something like 15k years ago(?) DNA is random so sometimes one sibling inherits way more of a certain ethnicity than another sibling 🤷🏻
I purchased the my heritage DNA test and I got the results back today and I do believe that they have haplogroups.
I want to know which haplogroup would be the cohanim one?
although I am female I do know that I do have kohanim roots from my mom's side. Would it show up or that's not your field per se.
ironically also the percents are different than ancestry.
I do have Sephardic roots way back like I don't how many generations ago, does that come up as Iberian Peninsula or Baltic? thank you in advance I'm really happy with my decision to do ancestry but now that I have my heritage test results I am confused a little
The Kohanim lineage would be a Y-DNA Haplogroup which can only be found in men by doing a Y-chromosome STR or SNP test through Family Tree DNA.
My sister had her DNA results and I was shocked to find that she was 80 % from British Isles since we actually know where our Grandparents came from: Norway, France, Sweden and Scotland. What happened to our Middle European ancestry? I did learn that countries where DNA test results are not allowed to be made public which is the case for France, totally skew the,DNA results because there needs to be DNA test results from an area to compare your DNA to. So my family Bible which is a written history in French that goes back to Quebec in the,early 1700s where my first French ancestor arrived is more accurate than a flawed DNA test.
Instead of thinking that one is better than the other, you should be thinking about the ways that the two sources interact, how they agree or disagree. Disagreement is to be expected; all genealogical evidence has its error paths, nothing is 100% genuine until bolstered by other evidence.
I recently did one of these and I was super shocked. Turns out I'm 70% Maori, 16% Argentinian 10% Japanese and 4% British Isles. It's very cool.
Maori? As in New Zealand? Wow, your people have been all over the world.
With who? Argentinian blood is usually just Spanish and Italian mix.
Are you Maori from new zealand that's how is that possible
My Native American ancestry showed on mine and my mother told me this and it was true
My family has what I call “reverse Cherokee grandmother”: we grew up thinking we were a lot less Native than we are!
I’m about 50% native. To be specific South American. Each of my grandparents all share the same dna locations. And all have Native American, Iberian , North African and small in African. I believe those are Spanish or Portuguese colonies from the 1500’s of Sefardic Jewish descent.
Did Ancestry and was rather disappointed because there were no surprises except for my French ancestry on my mom's side. We have been able to trace it back to the Filles du Roi so I was expecting to get at least 10% French, but the closest thing I got to that was 36% "England and Northwestern Europe".
You should react to clevver style DNA test
i feel like Kristin's mother might be Hispanic. The native American and Iberian would definitely make sense
I am J1c2. Close to the young lady wearing glasses. I am curious to know what the difference between J1c2 and J1c3 is ...... does it have to do with locations?
Im waiting for my results, i have never met my Dad so im super curious what the results will be.
Im 90,2% Scandinavian. 6,6% Finish. 3,2% Baltic. After DNA test and some research. I now know that the Baltic DNA is from my moms dads side. Because i matched with my moms cousin and she has 9,9% Baltic. And on the ones i matched with on dads side no one haves Baltic. Intresting to search more, i hope i can find how the Baltic did end up here. Because in my tree so far i haven’t found any Baltic.
Hello, I would love to speak with you regarding family tree research. I've gone as far as I can, and am stuck. Thanks!
Kristin and I have the same haplogroup!
How often does a person's intuition play an accurate role, in determining genetics as far as intuition matching the later genetic testing/facts goes? Have you ever experienced a case of this?
Hola!! I would like to take a Dna test, wich company would you recomend please. I am colombian and I know I Will be very very mixed.. thank you in advance
I would say Ancestry is your best option because they have the largest database and the genetic matches are the most important part of the DNA test results. You can also upload Ancestry DNA results to Family Tree DNA, MyHeritage, and Gedmatch for free (although some tools do cost extra to use).
@@GeneaVlogger Thank you very much for the answer !! I'll do, I'm wondering if I have ashkenazi as my last name is Saavedra from Iberian P. You are the best !
My DNA results surprised my kids. lol My daughter insisted I had Spanish/Mexican. Maybe Italian or any of the darker nationalities. And that is all because I tan very fast and very dark...well...used to. But I am 100% European. 40 some % England and Wales. 17% Scott/Irish, 20% Swedish, 16% Norwegian, 2% Germanic and 1% Finland. LOL My Mom's dad was from Sweden...so I figure for 1/4 Swedish. If my Mom were alive now she would faint. Because her Dad always made fun of the Norwegians and competed with them. And good ole Grandpa had to have Norwegian because it is not from any other grandparent but him. I have my family trees done basically. I know who is from where really. I would love to tell mom and grandpa...hey...you have Norwegian DNA...hahahahaaaa. lol I am glad though! But my daughter still cannot believe that is my DNA because I have darker hair and eyes and I tan easily it was just assumed. Even though if I am in sunny weather my hair turns dark blonde! Hubby says I have green specks in my eye color. :D
I’m predominantly Scottish/Irish\ English & north Western European & my dad which has Irish ancestory had really tanned skin kinda like Tom Jones , my Scottish grandmother & all her siblings look stereotypically Greek dark fuzzy curly type hair (once again hair like Tom Jones) & would tan easily. Definitely not a stereotypical Scottish & Irish family.
Hello! A significant portion of Scandinavians actually tan quite a lot! For example my mothers line from coastal southern Sweden tans quite a lot. Some Irish people do as well! These are remnants of much older migration and ancestry that cannot be determined through DNA tests.
Welsh ppl can be tan like Catherine zeta-jones
@@jessicaching6626
I heard that the Welch language is similar to the Danish language; so, there might be another Scandinavian connection with decent tanning, eh? 🤔
I've got decent percentages of Scandinavian, Welch, & Irish & I also tan quite easily to a medium brown (so that some Black folk have asked if I have any Black in me).*
Although my maternal grandma's dad was of Swedish decent & her mom of Norwegian decent, DNA-wise my Swedish matches are few & all near the border with Norway while my Norwegian matches are numerous & widespead through Norway (using MyHeritage's database in mid-2022).
* = I recently did a Y-Chromosome DNA Test with FamilyTree & was told that I'm Haplogroup R-BY4114 which has a lot of White folk, but it turns out that Tutankhamun (an Egyptian) & Albert Perry (a Black man from South Carolina with Camaroon roots) were also in this Haplogroup; so, once I get a PC set up with Internet I've got a lot of searching to do (my dad was adopted, so that's a biological mystery to solve along the way).
This stuff is interesting.

11:00 Will 24% translate in to grandparents? And specifically in women's case mom's mom - since you can not trace paternal side because of XX chromosomes? Sorry if I am talking nonsense. I read somewhere that unless some male - brother for example, in the family offers his dna for test the paternal side of a woman can not be traced. Is that right? Once again apologies if this is all stupidity on my part. No disrespect intended to anyone. Peace. Thanks, Regards,
Can any one tell me why one of my lines isn't distinguishable, from my fathers line? My father was adopted. We found his father but have never found his mothers line?
I have never done but I feel like they says since small African data bases it just tell I'm southern African 🤷 which I kniw
That must be old b/c 23andMe now has more detailed African results today. But when they didn't they should put a disclaimer because there was no reason for any person of African descent to pay the same money as a European and get a clearly inferior result. East Asians had it real bad. There was a time when it would just include everything; China, Korea, Japan, SE Asia and all the islands as one big blob. "Congrats, you are 100% East Asian."
The results are based off of the tested population in their database so it changes and updates as their database grows (and as they tweak their algorithms). There's no less work involved for any ethnicity so having a price based on a population would be silly. I know lots of white people who have mostly "broadly European" or just "western European". I mean just because your parents or grandparents are from a particular county it doesn't mean their grandparents were so "broad" results do come up.
When you don't have the data, you just plain don't have the data, and autosomal admixture testing (the commonly sold DNA testing) requires loads of data to be accurate. The companies doing testing are market-driven to produce specificity where their data doesn't warrant it, but if they don't, the ones who do promise it, deliver our not, will eat their shorts in the marketplace, because that is what the market wants. That's why results are never stated to be better than +/- 50% in accuracy.
This was fun. I actually looked at all 4, and intuitively figured out which ones had Native American heritage, based on their looks.
thats so cool:D
My mother gave up a son when she was a teenager. What would be the best way for me to find him? I've done DNA on myHeritage and I'm going to do one on Ancestry next (or is 23andme better?). Would it be possible to find him myself since my mom doesn't want to find him?
I would definitely say Ancestry because it has a larger database, so more likely he will have tested there as well. You can then upload for free to the Gedmatch database and the Family Tree DNA database. If you can't find any of those places, then take 23andme. It's about casting the widest net possible because if he does a dna test, you never know which company he did it with or which database he may have uploaded to. Once you are in each available database, it just becomes a waiting game from your position.
In the southeast many African Americans have admixtures with Mexican Americans, so it just depends on the regions, so the Native American is there
We were always told my mom's side was part Cherokee. I did my DNA and found I was - in this order, German, Italian, British, Slavic, French, Spanish, African, with a splash of Japanese. LOL.
No Dutch/low countries DNA? Is than even something these companies can measure?
That makes sense with the large amount of $5 Indians.
Very interesting. I myself had my DNA test through 23andMe and myheritage they're both very different. I have twice as more Native American on myHeritage than 23andMe .
Every company's results are different because they all have totally different databases and different algorithms. Even if you took two tests through the same company they would be little different because just because the process is imperfect.
Same. With 23&ME, I got 45% indigenous American. With Ancestry, I got 52%. With CRI Genetics, I got 84.6% indigenous America (although later, I spoke with customer support, and they define this as “mestizo” as well).
For a raw genetic upload of my Ancestry DNA, I got 51% from SOMOS Ancestria. 71.9% from My Heritage. 52.3% from TellMeGen. 49.1% from Living DNA. 43% from Family Tree. And 55% (approx) from Genome Link.
East Asian and Central Asian are pretty common with a lot of Eastern European/Balkan/Caucaus people because of steppe tribes migrating to Eastern Europe.
Her broad southern European ancestry, and maybe part of the Italian, is most probably Spanish, given that she has Native American ancestry. That's a Hispanic thing.
no you are thinking of Latinx people from Mexico and south America, native Americans actually migrated to America from Asia, that's why native American DNA is very closely linked to Asian DNA. While many people who are latinx typically have Iberian Spanish blood mixed with native American blood because there was a lot of mixing between native Americans and Spanish migrants in Mexico and south america.
There dna isn't linked to Asia that's only a theory
19:46: *Correction* - The Black girl is mixed with a few different things. Enslaved and a slave a two different senarios. A chunk of her ancestors were enslaved by another people group ⛓️ 🏚️. She doesn't descend from people born to be slaves...
Language us important and in the context of history this is especially important.

I got unexpected results recently and I was happy yet confused. So most of our family lore was correct im 31% brittish,23% scandinavian,18%native american, 12% asian,9% papuan ,5% west African, and like 2 Scottish and welsh maybe I may be off 1 or 2 on certain ones because I haven't looked at it for a bit. Anyways I've always known about the largest segments because thats what my family always said we were but I wasn't expecting the high percentage of native American, I figured I'd have more Scottish and Irish , and wasn't expecting the Asian, papuan, nor African at least in the percentages they were at all. The papuan really blew me away though cause I never hear of anyone getting that in their results especially the videos I've seen here on CZcams. I've always been fairly racially ambiguous with my dark features and olive skin tone and got asked quite frequently if I were part latina,native American,Italian, Asian, and even Samoan a few times especially in the summer months when my skin goes from golden to tan brown. I know I used to tell people I was a beige person when they'd ask what I was because they'd always add that I didn't look completely white. Id love be able to trace where exactly that all came from but I don't know how.
I Believe my ancestors account of my lineage they lived it . Everybody's black ancestors didn't sit around and say hey we're going to lie about being Native American , but there were a whole lot of $5 indians out there so maybe that's where the European ancestry came.
Does anyone know of any good DNA company in the philpines
Stupid question but so these tests tell you heritage from both mother and father’s DNA or is it mainly mother’s side?
Both but it can be a little complicated depending on which test you choose to take.
The tests account for the Autosomal chromosomes (the same for males and females) and then the sex chromosomes, X (for both male and female) and the second X if you're female or the Y if you're male.
Sometimes that Y test is a different test required.
So if a woman wants to know her father's paternal Y family her dad or grandpa or other paternal relative would have to get tested. I had my dad and my maternal uncle test so I have my Y results on both my dad's and mom's family.
The test in question ("autosomal" testing) covers all ancestors back to about 6-7 generations in the past. You can also get mtDNA testing, which covers only your strict female-only line bach to mtDNAEve, and an equivalent Y-chromosome test that similarly covers your male-only line back to Y-Adam. The latter two give you an "ethnicity" (actually a haplogroup), but they apply to only one person in each generation of your tree, and if you take both they are extremely likely to disagree on where your ancestry comes from because they each represent a single disparate line into the past of the millions that exist.
I did the ancestry test no NA DNA.. My 1st cousin who's actually related to me by our Dads who are brother and our moms who are 1st cousins.
AND our mothers .. Mothers..
Are sister's
AND our Mothers .. Fathers
Are 1st cousin's
.. Now back to my 1st cousin she did her dna with 23andme and she got 4% NA..
Our Dad's mother census records has her and her mother listed as NA .. In Oklahoma... It's been a well know story .. Like you said but this dna totally skipped me.. And my children. Now I want to do the 23andme to see if that's the problem.. Idk
I did my DNA test years ago and it came out as I expected. It said I was 35% German, 19% Swedish, 19% English, 16% Norwegian, and 11% Scottish. The mystery is there is Native American on my dad's mother's line that no one has traced. Certainly something I plan to trace.
if it did not show on the DNA test then you have no native american DNA
My mitochondrial Haplogroup is B2🕺💃👯🤸
Very Good!... 290 🐄🦉🏴☠✝
The Irish took over west Spain (Galicia) for a while Before the American Conquest. So yeah us Mexicans have a little Irish I have 4%.. I’m 66% European
Its just fun
czcams.com/video/27Egi3yMDDU/video.html here's Kristins update video about her ancestry.
I was adopted (closed adoption by law) - can they really find your relatives despite this?
A lot of Mexicans are full blooded Native American untouched by the spanish I would know I’m Mexican lol🇲🇽
I'm 40-47% indeginous canadian 🥰
viking you see alot that in england
do these only test the maternal side if ur female and paternal side if ur male. or both.
Bascially yes. The test accounts for the Autosomal chromosomes (the same for males and females) and then the sex chromosomes, X (for both male and female) and the second X if you're female or the Y if you're male.
So if a woman wants to know her father's paternal Y family her dad or grandpa or other paternal relative would have to get tested. I had my dad and my maternal uncle test so I have my Y results on both my dad's and mom's family.
People seem to forget or don’t even know that Europeans are Eurasians and that Native Americans are Asians. A lot of people also don’t realize that many Asians are also Hamitic same as the Denisovans.
I feel this DNA ancestry test should not band together East Asian and Native Americans as a group. Although Native Americans are descended from ancient East Asians/Siberian group a long long time ago, and there are some facial similarities between them, modern Native Americans and East Asians are separate groups now. Even within China (the largest northern/East Asian group), the Northern and Southern Han differs in DNA admixture because of their border proximity with neighbouring countries. Northern Han are closer to Central Asia/North Asia/Russia and Southern Han are closer to those in Thailand/Laos/Vietnam. That's why in Asian dna tests they separate Northern and Southern Han instead of just Han (the majority ethnicity in China).
From what I’ve heard, there were several darker natives that were not legally allowed to be classified as Native American. I wonder how something like that effects African American results? Are there genes that just get grouped in with others? Are there tribes that were completely wiped out from written history?
Exactly....also there were actually a lot of darker skin tribes . When people first arrived in America they wrote about it. They didn't look like majority of the ones of today.
the DNA test would be able to differentiate that. it would not change the results.
No that isn't true stop listening to afrocentrics like dane calloway blacks are native to Africa not the americas
I'm 48% percent Eastern European Jewish more specifically Poland, Romanian and Ukrainian we know this because we have the immigration papers to prove that.
The other half of my ancestry is mostly British specifically English and some Scottish, some Irish and to round that out German, Dutch and Norwegian.
How very nice. What an interesting mixture you are.
It is TRUE that Native Americans can be mixed with African Americans. I identify as Native American 60%, African American 12%, German/French, China/Indonesia, Iran/Persian and the kicker is Melanesian???I gave a kidney to my sister and the operation was done at Yale New Haven Hosp. So these are some of the results I asked for they gave me. There are many Native Americans with African ancestry and some kind of Asian ancestry. Chinese, Indonesia, Japan, Filipino. Austronesian, Iran/Caucasus/Mesopotamian. Melanesian. I didn’t understand that but it is found in my Native American family. Aunts, Uncles, my father, my brothers and sisters and cousins. So it is possible. Melanesian runs between 12%-2% in our family. I had 10%. Maybe that is why some of us in the summer time our hair gets lighter. Much lighter. Some have blonde hair all year. But gets much much bleached in the summer. I will have to look more into this. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Pause it when you talk, us chicks wanna hear the chat....:)
Wait. No Gen.....why out?
Funny how its the in thing to have native american ancestor .. when before it was denied.
Ain't marketing a wonderful driver? You can get native American, whether real or not.
@@puncheex2 Well, most Americans (black or white) that think they are part Native are not Native according to the DNA tests. So...
@@Catlily5 and I love it now hispanic we have heavy native ancestry
Now everyone wants to be NA! And anyone who has NA blood who denied it before wants to now wear it as a badge of honor.
stupid question but do they have these for animals.
Yes, but it is for determining breed. So not going to find your pups long lost brother, but you can find out how much poodle the pup is.
What race is Native American? Are they black? White? Mixed?
Many central asian steppe hordes have ravaged and plundered their way through eastern europe throughout the ages, the Mongols NOT being the last. For centuries up until the 1750's the Crimean Tatars in southern Ukraine raided deep into Europe and Russia its not surprising they left some "gifts" along the way.
You have some very good information to offer, but I need you to pause the video when you talk.
So if the native american is on my fathers side will it be less likely to show up when I test?
You have to order a test for your autosomal dna to get an idea if you have native american ancestry, then you'd have get a male family member or relative to do Y-DNA test to confirm your autosomal results.
