Update: My 0.3% Trace DNA is Indigenous American. This was so much fun. Finding out where my people have been on this planet gives me an indescribable amount of joy. Finding new relations is the bonus.
Hey cousin I would love to inform you that you have Royal DNA
You looked faintly Middle Eastern to me when I first set eyes on you. The Israeli notation is odd as the country was established only in 1948. It appears to me that the co. was trying to skirt using the word “Palestinian” for political reasons - but by bending over to be PC they’ve made a mistake as the Jewish people and the Arabs will have some similarities but overall are literally from distinctly different tribes. But who knows? Maybe one of your ancestors centuries ago was a Jew who married or coupled with an Arab or vice versa, and your ancestor gave birth to one of your descendants, which made you a mini combo ;-) The takeover of southern Spain by the Moors, as you mentioned, does seem to make sense. Interesting though that this wasn’t passed along at all to the girls… And that their DNA reflects Inuit is fascinating as this would go back several thousand years!
Majority of African Americans came central and west Africa not only West Africa..... Congo, Angola and Cameroon are central Africa not West Africa
As
@@ishmaelchiponda6383 Congo, Angola, and Cameroon all line the West Coast of Africa.
This is another example of why it makes no sense that we discriminate against people for perceived differences in “race” or national origin. Most of us are combinations of many different peoples and none of us has any control over our ancestry!
🙌🏽💚
Racism started with WP. We never treated anyone bad because of what they looked like. That amount of hate is just not in us, we are truly The Most High's people.
@@freer1176 I guess I shouldn’t have deleted all of the horrible, racist, ugly, and vile comments that I had to delete from BP. You wouldn’t believe the stuff our people say. 😢💚
@@freer1176lies. Africans were and still are very triablistic.
@@freer1176 never been to Africa have you? No one person started racism. Africans are tribalistic. Asians are somewhat tribalistic/cultural-istic. Indians are tribalistic. Europeans don’t even like each other. So saying white people started it is weird af. They were taken as slaves too so did Africans an Middle Easterners start racism? But the Viking took other Europeans as slaves so did the Vikings start slavery?
Get a grip lad.
I'm from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷. I took the Ancestry DNA test last year. The biggest percentage was Nigerian. We also consider ourselves mixed from Africa, Tainos and Spaniards. Interesting data yall!
As a Nigerian, I'm glad to hear that
Boricua hispanic india n black iam... We puerto rican have 3 culture you n i the same way is beautyful. My Grand mother was from Barceloneta puerto rico she was black n afro hair. My other from utuado was india my Grand father tall white like the spain peoplen. I know how to play the african drum.. God bles. Yo naci en la America me crie en puerto rico mi padres son de puerto rico .

@@emilioquintana4332 Crispy hair?!? REALLY?!?
Yet if you're a dark skin person that speaks Spanish instantly Puerto Ricans will go and say are you Dominican Panamanian Honduran and if you say no I got Puerto Rican ancestry or I'm Puerto Rican then they instantly say with your people from Louisa no m*********** my peoples from San Juan Aguadilla and Ponce
What a beautiful mother, daughters, family. Love the chemistry between mother and daughters - you can tell the love there.
Thank you! 💚
Love this! I think it is important to understand how this works: when it says „Nigeria“ or „Inuit“ it means that the given portion of the TESTED population in that specified area has the same genetic markers as you. This does not mean that your ancestors came from there (although there is a strong possibility). It means that you SHARE the same markers. Groups from another, very distant population could have the same marker. For example, an Irish person may share the same Celtic markers as someone from Western or Northern Spain. In some cases, the algorithm used to allocate markers to groups can mistakenly attribute the ethnicity to the wrong group. This was the case for me and the dna company has sinced updated the reference database accordingly. As the databases and algorithms get better, this will improve somewhat, but there will always be a margin of error. Asians and Native American populations share many markers due to migration across the Bering Strait. The challenge comes in indentifying which population the individual came from.
Interesting hiw we individually pull different amounts of DNA from out parents. Natural sibs can have diffent percentages that just naturally tumble into us !! I mat be a bit more German than a sib . I have Iberian blood , going into the middle east, too . I think thats the Irish lines origin. That's the mitochondrial line . My kids father is African American, with German. We are a fascinating bunch .
Young marriages and old marriages do accept genetic decent . I have cousin who are the childer on my dad brother and mom's first cousin . I'm irish, its kind of our old school village living that at one time made this common . It's uncommon here in America. My dad lived my mom from childhood , he got hit by a truck looking at her as a boy . She had a piece of coal that was a perfect egg , my dad gave it to her on the fire escape , during a fire drill at school . Lost Creek , PA.
Not only that, literally ALL of these people migrated from other regions originally. Especially in the case of African people, more specifically West African. They ALL migrated from East Africa.
A white friend of mine was completely shocked to find out he had 3% Congo in his test. My great grandmother on my father's mother's side was half black, half white and she told everyone, "she was Indian." I did not learn this (big family secret) until I was in my forties. Just goes to show, we put to much emphasis on this. We should just respect each other as "human, and unique."
No American black or white should be shocked to have varied ancestry if there folks were here more than 100, people mixed voluntarily or involuntarily, why most black Americans have 10-25% British /white Gerge Washington type ancestry, by 23&me data,,
10% of US white Americans especially from the south have trace WAfrican /black dna and most white Americans are genetically mixed with multiple ethnicities, so both groups are distinctive, have WEuropean ancestry, but at different percentages.
Cuba being part of North America is no different, most 'white' Cubans have 5-30% SSAfrican ancestry, with predominantly WEuro dna, Brazil and even the Dominican Republic people, have largely Euro dna, with partial West African admixture, but one ancestry doesn't cancel the other ancestry,. These young American ladies look like they have a good thumbprint 15-35% -+ British/WEuro dna, they even have trace Native &South Asian(Gypsy) dna.
You are the seed (sperm) of your father. God said so!
@@barbaraobach If you put an apple seed in the ground in Japan. Is it going to be an apple orange?
You seem to be a logical person, and believe in a supreme being
Would you believe the Supreme being over a natural man or vice verse
All Caucasians should research the Dawes Roles before claiming so-called American Indian Ancestry. The further we go back the more wickedness we uncover.
My sister just became a published author of our family history. She has been researching for the last 20yrs and at the end of it all she went back as far as the year 800 which locked our genes to the Tribe of Levi in the bible. She has traveled all over the world to each country that led to her finishing the book with so many proven documents and pictures of history. Her book will be on sale sometime in Dec 2022, this book teaches on how to research and find your ancestry. I can't wait to read the book, ancestry knowledge is so important and exciting. Thank you for sharing it was very interesting to hear your story.
That is awesome. What is the name of the book. And where can it be bought
Thank you for sharing your inspiration and for watching 💚
Your sister locked her genes to the tribe of Levi in the Bible? That's not possible. DNA scientists don't have samples for the Jewish tribe of Levi, since there are no current Jewish population known as such.
. Hopefully you will read the book and read how her research brought her to that conclusion. It will be an incredible journey. Thx
The best way to trace your history, is boots on the ground. Good luck.
Your granddaughter is so poised and such a little lady. ☺️
Thank you! 💚
Don't forget to check back with DNA companies often, as their databases get more samples, the results get finer tuned.
At 89.00 dollars a visit, i don't think i will be checking often.
3 generations? All the three girls look really young and the grandma is still young!! How's that possible? You definitely have amazingly strong genes.
Both mother and daughter were teenage mothers
@@vaimendeeven if that were true, she still looks absolutely amazing for being a 50+ year old woman.
@@vaimende wait what? She has a granddaughter there? I thought all three were her daughters. Wow. Those genes … those genes! 🤎🤎🤎🤎
@@BritgirlTX lol yes granddaughter

"DNA RESULTS. WHAT ARE WE?"
BEAUTIFUL. You ladies are gorgeous!!!
Thank you! ☺️💚
This is so wholesome, I just stumbled upon this video and I really enjoyed it. We're all different, but we're also the same.
I have done 3 tests. 2 autosomal tests, 23 & Me and Ancestry, and one Mitochondrial DNA test, African Ancestry. I learned something from all three of them, but the African Ancestry pinpointed my father's line to the Ewe people from Ghana and my Mother's line is from the Igbo people from Nigeria.
African Ancestry can only do the maternal line on females. How did you get your paternal line from that one? (If you are female).
Ah, lucky you to have Igbo ancestry!They have been some of the finest potters on earth for a long long time.
Did you have a male brother or perhaps your dad do the dna test too? How did you find out your paternal line?
From what I read about the history of the igbos in Jamaica for example, they were matching the igbo women with Ghanian men,they say, Ghanaians don't claim their father's side, but their mother's. Probably, the igbo women were many in numbers.
@@nduodiaka-ph9sl patriarchy was a middle eastern system . Why Africa was easily conquered because it's more matriarchal.
Of course we know we're mostly African but we have mixes from moors the mixtures of BLK men and their Arab / Jewish concubine,Tainos who are the native Indians of the Caribbean . Then you have various after slavery mixes .Mixes from during transatlantic slavery . Pre explorer genes are generally Italian Portuguese Polynesian Chinese these ppl travelled on boats long before Christopher Columbus and them
This family of girls has inner&outer beauty and happiness, that's the good vibe the mother sets, you can't beat that.
I absolutely loved watching your video! You four girls are so much fun. The DNA thing? Proves over and over how much more alike we are.
My fellow Diasporan African Americans! Beautiful family! I did 23andMe recently. Dam your youngest one have ALOT of Nigeria 😂 She got more than me, mines is 40.4%. Under my Nigeria it has 'Igbo' which I appreciate because i even walked away with a Tribe ✊🏾😂 I viewed comparison of my 1st cousins and theirs say Igbo as well 😉 Any day now my AncestryDNA results should be coming in. I can't wait so i can compare. You mentioned what surprised us, mines was it had a lil of Southern India Sri Lanka, i nearly fell out my chair reading that lol. Be well Big Sis! ✊🏾🙏🏾👍🏾💯
I had a Nigerian friend and your oldest daughter definitely has the facial features of the Nigerian people. And they have a very beautiful and joyful spirit too ❤
Nigerian is not an ethnic definition. So, NO they have not facial feature of nigerian people.
@@massimilianomencacci2510 what I am saying is that not all Africans look the same, just like not all Asians look the same. The region you are from matters. For instance, Nigerians tend to have rounder faces, many times shorter and stockier, while many Kenyans are taller, more lean. It's true.
Could be viva versa! Maybe the Nigerian people are American aboriginal and moved to Africa?
Just a thought!
@@oklahomafreedom5536 😂🤣😂🤣
@@oklahomafreedom5536😂😂😂😂 what??? You are hillarious!
Out of curiosity I clicked on your video to learn a little about DNA test results. Infact I learned a lot.
Kudos to you and your beautiful family.
It will definitely open the mind of humanity to understand how interconnected human beings are and the need to respect one another.
The purpose of creating human into tribes is to make it easier to identify one another, not to hate or subjugate or dominate.
The big question to everyone is how human are you?
We need so much loving world to thrive as humans.
Thank you for watching and for commenting 💚
What a fabulous grouping of gorgeous and intelligent ladies! I love the generations and the way you all carry yourselves with your own individuality and yet still share a strong family bond!
Thank you! 💚
Hi there again Brown Angel! I enjoyed watching this episode with your daughters and granddaughter and you sharing your DNA results. I have to say that your family's DNA results read like my youngest daughter's and mine from Ancestry. A Christian sister keeps telling me that I'm Hebrew like many Africa Americans. When I was born the original birth certificate label me Colored, smile. I've often gotten asked since my teen years, "Where are you from?" I think off the top of my head, Ancestry found 17 plus ethnicities (hope I am using the correct term here), in my family tree. Thanks for sharing this heartwarming video. Ms. L.
Hello! 👋🏼 Thank you for watching! And yes, there is a possibility that you might be Hebrew. 🙌🏽💚
Hebrew is a religion, you have to learn it. Being Jewish is the race of people, who may or may not practice Hebrew.
Enjoying the DNA results from around the world. I truly enjoyed watching your interactions with your girls and grand daughter. Brought a big smile to me. They all inherited your beautiful smile. Thanks for sharing your results.
Thank you. You are too kind 💚
Ladies you are beautiful and what you are doing is incredible. I would recommend considering taking a Mt-DNA test as this would give you the X line daughter to mother to mother, etc. and can help focus some of your questions for additional research.
Alex Haley’s book “Roots” was so impactful to me as a teenager, way back when.
Love this so much.❤
Thank you! 💚
23&Me cover that.
That movie was SO impactful to me!!!!
"ROOTS" WAS A MYTH, A LIE MADE UP BY DEMOCRATS & HOLLYWOOD TO CAUSE "BLACK" AMERICANS TO HATE AGAINST "WHITE" AMERICANS!!
Haley Book was full of lies…he’s admitted that himself..
Hello :) This is just speculation, but amounts of Finnish ancestry together with any of these ethnicities; Native American/Inuit, west asian, central asian, mongolian etc could be a signifier of indigenous Sami ancestry. Especially if you also have Scandinavian or Northern European ancestry.
These DNA companies do not have any “tag” for people of Sami ancestry and thus give some interesting results instead.
Of course, this doesn’t necessarily mean that someone is Sami, but it’s interesting to keep in mind.
Btw I am of Sami heritage, born and raised❤️💚💛💙
What is “Sami”?! 🤔
I have all these ancestries but at minimal trace amounts
@@RoseOfSaudia They are indigenous people. They used to herd reindeer and live modestly and off the land, very interesting people indeed.
What a lovely family you are! I just got a DNA kit, and am looking forward to seeing all the places my ancestors hailed from. It’s a mystery.
Thank you! 💚
I had my beautiful daughter at 16 and it’s hard but it’s so encouraging hearing you talk and not in a negative way... even though it’s hard to take care of a baby, it can be done and done well. God Bless you and your sweet family!
Bless you! I was a part of the wave that started at the beginning of the teen pregnancy “epidemic” in America. The girls who were pregnant the years before me were bussed to special schools for pregnant girls. Me and the five other girls who were pregnant at school were sort of spectacles. It’s not easy raising a child while you’re still growing up yourself. Hopefully you have a reliable, patient, and loving support system. Thankfully the women from my mother’s and grandmother’s generations were still around. They were a huge help. Let your “village” help you. Stay strong and stay blessed. 💚
@@thebusybrownangel5829 I love, love, love this.
Hi! You all should take the African ancestry test to get more details about your African side. They have a matrilineal test that should show more connections between your generations using mitochondrial DNA. They say they can trace down to the tribe.
It's out of business and was very expensive. Also scam.
@@celticmulato2609 oh wow. I knew it was expensive but how was it determined it was a scam?
They actually can & they do!
They're the most reliable DNA test for people with African ancestry.
Right down to the exact "tribe or tribes", which is great for anyone of African ancestry, as this fills in some of those big historical gaps.
They're also one of the most reliable & honest, when handling your DNA.
They dispose of your DNA once they've done all their testing.
Mtdna 100% from mom only 0% from dad
Hello from New Zealand. I love hearing about people's DNA and where we all come from around the world. Awesome video! 😊
Hello! 👋🏼 Thank you! 💚
Thanks for the video! Greatings from Norway!
Our daughter is 99% German while my husband & I are both about 85% German. She asked how that was possible. I said she just inherited all our German genes. I had always heard that an ancestor was Cherokee but DNA doesn't show that. I finally found family tree info which included a Cherokee ancestor that was so far back that it no longer shows in DNA.
Interesting. Also, do your research as there are genealogists who will state that these tests are not too terribly accurate as there is no way to 100% determine this info. It is based on databases of those who have tested. This is why they occasionally update and your stats change. They are different with each company because there database of users differs. It may give some idea, but they say it is more entertainment than anything. Two twins were tested and came up quite different with the same company. Interesting though and I've done 3 different ones.
@@lahawk2931 I've heard that DNA is only a little more accurate than an Ouija board. But when you know that a 2x ggf came from Germany, then you can say "Yep that's right." You need to do the research to back up the DNA. All US census records that included him show he was born there.
My hubby has been working on his tree for years and we've dabbled in mine. My mother's parents are German her mom being born what was East Prussia, now Russian territory and church records destroyed...but her dna is like 48% British and I've yet to learn where that comes from. There was a story that a gal of nobility refused an arranged marriage and was disowned. Never knew if there was truth to this, but if true that may be the English blood...she may have been promised to someone in Germany, but unlikely it will ever be solved. Interesting just the same...we are all a mix.
Your Cherokee ancestor was probably a person of African descent. Cherokee Nation welcomed many Black people into their nation.
@@paulaheady8990 I've been aware for years that there were (are) communities of Indians, blacks & whites who lived together throughout the country. A 4th great granduncle married a "free black" woman & moved to one of those communities. It could have been that my 2x ggm was more black than Cherokee. It would explain my .2% Nigerian DNA. I have heard the term "Melungeons," but not in connecton with her. The area fits though. The search for answers goes on.
Our oldest sibling, 69 did her DNA recently, and our results almost exactly like yours! Also, your family look like mine too!
The pictures at the end was such a nice bonus. Your parents are truly black. I wish we had all of our grand parents pictures. You are so blessed to have them. Thanks for sharing your beautiful girls insight as well. I am looking forward to doing my DNA test as well.
Thank you! My mother was good at keeping family photos and she left them all to me. They are definitely a blessing. Thank you for watching and I hope one day you find lots of family photos yourself. 💚
You have a beautiful family and you look so young sis! This is so interesting and thanks for sharing! I’d like to do this too. ☺️
Thank you, Beautiful. It was fun. I hope you do it 💚
I come from half way around the globe -- the Maldives. And even though we say that all Maldivians are Maldivians, we are a mixed bunch (look at us in a world map, consider the Indian Ocean trade routes before air travel, and factor in that we have been inhabited for at least a couple of thousand years). I loved this episode and the message it contains, which I hope that people will take home with them. Lots of love and respect!
Thank y’all for sharing your family history. I love the interaction between y’all

If you have your trace as Isreal/Jewish, then you are Igbo origin who are of Jewish/Isreal.

Super interesting & insightful, especially with 3 generations, the fathers DNA influence and how generationally things can differ.
Thank you for sharing with us all, I watched and listened throughout - truly fascinating.
Watching from London UK. x
Thank you and thank you for watching! 💚
Our people are very beautiful and can look many ethnicities. This was very interesting. I appreciate you sharing the experience and giving the companies. I never did this but it would be something amazing to see.
Yes, our people come in all shades, shapes, and sizes. Thank you for watching. I hope you get yours done. It’s a beautiful feeling knowing where your people have been. 💚
ALL people are beautiful no matter their race because God our creator made them :)
I really enjoyed your story about your DNA and family history. My late father and I have researched our DNA and Genealogy for many years. I'm mostly Swiss-German with some English and Scottish. My ancestors have been in America since before the American Revolutionary War.
This is the first time I have watched one of your videos.
You should have a podcast I can listen to your voice all day it’s very patient & just calm
Thank you! 💚
Fulani from Guinea here 🇬🇳 and Really Amazing Results and you explained things very well! Wonderful family 🙏🏾
Hello 👋🏼 Thank you! 💚
Great video. One point you brought up that is often overlooked is that you will have 1% or less match for ancestry back 8 or more generations. So if something doesn't show up in your test, check an earlier generation. Some companies give an ancestral timeline, which shows you do have something from the 1700s that didn't show up as a percentage.
What a great video cousin. ❤️I was reading my 23andMe results along with yours and we are very similar. So good to see all your beautiful girls!
Hey, Beautiful! Thank you! You and Cherokee were the first to pop up as 1st cousins (once removed). Thank you so much for watching. 🤗😘🥰
My father was born in 1924 and I was born in 1963 so we have the same issue with our dna results. One of my older sisters had our father do the dna test. We found out we have two other siblings than we knew about. On my mother's side there is a small percentage of Congo, Southern Bantu People and one more thing. It shows that one of our way back great grand fathers was what they called a mulato. He was a slave and his mother was as well. This is all very interesting. Thank you for sharing with us. Oh and despite my last name, we are mostly Irish.
You did a really good, comprehensive job on this video.
Thank you! 💚
Your grand daughter looks more like you then your kids do... DNA is a mystery ... God Bless you and your family❤❤❤
Really enjoyed this! Fascinating stuff. Your family is beautiful 😍
Thank you 💚
My DNA was 50/50 from both sides amazingly. My mum was straight-up Irish & Scottish. My dad however was the rolling stone lol. I'm 30% Irish & 20% Scottish from my mum. From my dad it's 4% Scottish, 21% Nigerian, 11% Cameroon/Congo/Bantu, 6% English with the map showing the extension into Belgium and France, 4% Mali, 2% Welsh, 1% Native American and 1% Senegal. On ancestry DNA I am included in the Louisiana Creole section as are many of my relatives which makes sense.
Nigerian 😂😂😂 everyone hahaha
@@ARajantara777 - May I add that Nigerian's are know for their scams!
Half your DNA is your mother’s heritage and half is your Father’s It’s always 50/50. Scientifically you can’t have more of your Dad’s DNA. But this was really cool to watch. You ladies are stunning.
Thank you! We meant to clarify “ethnic DNA.” Sorry for the confusion. 💚
I really enjoyed your video! You’ve got a beautiful family both inside and out…and you’ve also got a new subscriber 😊🙏🏾
Thank you! Welcome to the family 💚
Beautiful family and video! Thank you for sharing! I did mine and was shocked to find out I was part middle eastern and egyptian ❤️
It’s shocking, but also exciting! I love the unexpected 💚
Any Black American that gets North Africa and the Middle East most probably got it from Iberian (Spain and Portugal) ancestor. But the percentages are usually not that much, less than 5%.
Can we appreciate how beautiful Grandmother is!!👏
☺️ Thank you 🥰💚
Excellent Post! Beautiful ladies👍🏾
Thank you! 💚
😂😁 oh my goodness the what are you question. People have argued me down saying I look Philippino,Indian,Korean black,Native American,Dominican. It’s just a beautiful thing how we look so blended. We were beautifully made.
😂 Isn’t it funny how people will argue with you over who you are? People keep telling me that one of my parents have to be “other” because there’s no way I could be Black and look like this 🤦🏽♀️😂 We are Beautiful people for sure! Light, dark, and everything in between 💚
You’re so beautiful 😇
I could totally tell they were black. Not sure why there was such a question in the first place lol
@@thebusybrownangel5829 Exactly😒 I'm very white and have been told all my life that I MUST have some black in me bc my butt is so big for my frame. Not only is that extremely rude, but it's also just as ignorant🤦♀️ People come in all shapes and sizes regardless of race. Soooo tired of the race baiting😑
The lies, the lies. No one is saying you look Korean, you look straight out of africa
This was so fascinating. Most people are walking around here thinking there’s a simple answer to, “What are you?” or “Where are your people from?” It’s really a jam packed question. I hope I’m brave enough to seek the answers some day.
You are from TMH GOD 🙏. Only one race we should be concerned with and that is being found in the Lamb's book of life. Reflect repent and rejoice.

Most Black Americans(60) percent have majority Nigerian ancestry. My youngest daughter is over 40 percent Nigerian.
Middle East is North Africa. Middle East is a new term made up in the 40s.It was made up to divide Africa.

The Nigerian and Sierra Leone countries represent your Gullah Geechee heritage. We also come from Cameroon, Angola and a few other western and central west African countries. Your Gullah Geechee was there loud and clear! ❤️ from South Carolina
I have “met up” with some of my family online. I took the Ancestry DNA, and found out that I’m not related to any Native American tribe, like I was told… then the story came out of the closet.
My Great-Great-Great Grandmother’s husband was said to have been “native”. He was actually a light skinned African man. Back then, it was taboo to marry a man of a different race. Hey, the heart wants what the heart wants! I just believe she was way before her time. So, when I saw that 3% of my DNA came from Africa, (and I’m stark white.😂) I was overjoyed!
My Husband kept saying we was VERY Irish (he has red hair and is also very fair skinned. I knew this came from Scotland.), and come to find out, my feisty little self is MUCH more Irish than he is! 😂 He’s almost all Scottish, and English! Genetics are so much fun!! Be blessed!
😂 I love it! Thanks for sharing 💚
I always thought the red hair was the Scottish influence, not the Irish. My father said he was Scottish but had light brown hair. His grandfather immigrated from Scotland. Unfortunately they have all died. Another interesting thing: we had a family friend with red hair, freckles, pink skin who said he was German. He has also passed on.
Tanya, your daughters, and your granddaughter are all beautiful individuals! I've never had my DNA tested, but you've piqued my curiosity. I'm wondering if the results would be more uniform if you all used the same DNA testing site. It was interesting to learn that we get the majority from our father's side, even if it's only a percentage or two. It would be fascinating to see the results if I and my siblings had our DNA tested. I hope you all have a blessed week! ~Margie🤗
Hi, Margie! Thank you so much! They are three of my favorite people 😁 I’m going to have mine done again through Ancestry.com also. Mostly for DNA matches for relatives. It’s interesting to see all of the people from all over the world that May or may not be related to you. They’ve matched me with so many 1st cousins, 1st cousins once, twice, and thrice removed, and second cousins of the same levels that I didn’t even know existed. I already have a huge family, but it’s bigger than I thought. You should definitely get yours done. It may surprise you 💚
Beautiful family. Much love. Am from Sierra leone 🇸🇱 west Africa. Currently residing in the bronx.
@@mohamedjalloh8048 Thank you! And thank you for watching 💚
Great project here. Stay curious! ❤
If you research you will learn that they differ by company because it is based on their data base and changes as more folks test and are added. There is no way to 100% provide where you come from, it is subjective and based on where others that share your dna are from, etc. My mom and I initially showed a small percentage of African dna (my heritage) and then down the line, mine disappeared, but hers did not. Unsure when it changed, why ours didn't change the same. Genealogists say that it is still more for fun than true science. They've done experiments with twins, where they came up completely different from the same company. It is still fun to do.
Absolutely beautiful family! 😁👍 Great information! Thank you!😄😁
Thank you and thank you for watching 💚
Thanks for sharing your family DNA results. Interesting info .
Thank you for watching 💚
Your granddaughters smile as she gave hers was contagious. This is important ❤ awesome you did everyone’s.

In Nigeria there are three main groups the Yoruba, Igbo and Hausa. I was born there and grew up among the Hausa. My Ancestry is Scandinavian, German, and English. All Northern European. So I am about as light as you can get. I became a US citizen when I was 17. So when I tell people I am an immigrant from West Africa I always get quite a reaction.😂
Amazing
Great statement about the dilution of ones' ancestry DNA, decades and centuries later, and its best to have your grandparents also do the DNA test so an individual will get more confirmation and clearer idea of his or her ancestry.
Dilution? What an interesting way of putting it. I prefer composition 💚
LoVe how connected. You are to your girls
History nerd, love this video😘
Thank you 💚
Shout out to my Nigerian sisters!!! You are loved.
🤗😘🥰💚
A real mixed up!!! Beautiful!!!🤎🤌🏻👌🏼🤜🏾🤜🏾
I'm Nigerian 🇳🇬 bread and buttered living in England 🇬🇧 but for some reason, I know I'm middle Eastern, somewhere in Israel 🇮🇱 because people from my village according to history, well over 2000 have Jewish ✡️ ancestors in Ondo city, a lot among the Igbo tribe too, yet to take my DNA, great family you have right there, God bless you all.
Thank you! Blessings to you 💚
Were the Igbo and Ondo people worshipping Yahweh before colonization? Did they know anything about Adam, Abraham, Moses, David, etc?
It's so interesting! I wish my parents and grandparents were still alive so I could have a more accurate dna search. I do know my maternal grandparents were Norwegian and Swedish. I was also told my fraternal grandparents were French Canadian and German (Prussia). Which DNA test gave you more details? Thanks for sharing! 💯
23andme and thanks for watching 💚
Your granddaughter has your smile and spirit. She is so beautiful love her smile......What a great video. I love it. We also did the DNA and the results were very awakening. I now know who my biological dad is. I have thousands of cousins. Plus, a new brother and sister, a host of nephews. My goodness
Thank you, Kathy! I just love that girl! I am beyond proud of her. She’ll be leaving for UCLA soon. I’m glad you found your father and siblings. How cool! One of the best parts about DNA results is finding all of those family members you didn’t know you had 💚
This is a great eye opener for your family. I find it very interesting the diversity in our DNA is amazing. Thank you for sharing, you're a great family too.
Thank you 💚
My first time seeing you & your video, let me say, your are Beautiful & have a beautiful family!
Continued success & Blessings to you all!!!
Thank you so much ☺️💚
This is a great video. Very well done mom.
Thank you! 💚
Thank you for sharing this is wonderful
Thank you for watching 💚
Thank you for sharing your family DNA results. I love 💘 this one. 3 generations at the table is beautiful and all of you are gorgeous 😍. DNA is fascinating to me. I did African Ancestry paternal. Large percentage from Ghana 🇬🇭. With a story behind it. Peace and one 💘. Thanks.
Thank you! And thank you for watching, commenting, and sharing your results. 💚
I just purchased the heritage DNA kit I haven't taken it still on my dresser looking at me but this is encouraging. The Most High brought me here to your channel for a reason. Todah Rabah Achoti . Shalom and Blessings to your beautiful family
Shalom! Blessings to you are your family. 💚
Thank family for sharing this video. Such beautiful people. Shout out from.the uk 🇬🇧
Hi! 👋🏼 Thank you and thank you for watching! 💚
I can relate to everything you said about the questions being asked regarding your ethnicity. Because I have long hair, I am often asked if I'm mixed (black/white), Latina, etc. It's exhausting.
Tell them it is none of their concern. Or you can use an old standby: "Ya writing a book?"
Beautiful family 😍
You're all welcome in Nigeria, the giant of Africa 🇳🇬💪
Thank you! 💚
Beautiful family! God bless you all.
Thank you! Blessings to you and your family 💚
My mom and one of her sisters just did this. Waiting on results. Im excited. Im going to do it as well.
I did a My Heritage test, and all my life, I thought, as my paternal grandfather was from Belgium as was all of his family, I would have either Western Europe in my results (Holland, Belgium, etc), nope not a bit! Turns out my ancestors were from Scandinavia, (Sweden, Norway). Also, on my maternal side, I had no idea I was part Italian, nor was my mother aware!
We are all just a huge mixing bowl of wonderful surprises! Thanks for sharing your story.
This is so beautiful ! Which DNA test did you guys prefer (Ancestry, 23&Me, or My Heritage) . & what you said about our DNA being mostly from our father was incredible to hear because my Guinean side of the family (my mothers) always say you’re more of whatever your father is and I never knew if they were saying this based off of science or not !! Wowwww they were right
23andme so far, but I haven’t taken Ancestry yet. 💚
In African culture the father side has a lot of importance because the ancestors had knowledge about how DNA and blood work out in the body. But modern western culture looks at it as a patriarchal oppressive way of life. The father injects his seed into a woman and his seed grow up to become his representation even if his child looks more like his mother. It doesn't matter
@@thebusybrownangel5829 ❤️
@@thebusybrownangel5829 AncestryDNA is what I prefer the most than 23andme and I would definitely do myheritage last just for the matches
My daughter & I chose Ancestry, there all about the same, 25% Irish 4% native American and more, continues to change ,just pick one be Happy.
Awesomeness Tanya! You and your daughters are beautiful. You’re blessed with such a beautiful family! I have two beautiful daughters as well and we may do this someday… I know we have Native American as my grandmother 1/2 and her hair was down to her hips. I miss her dearly as she came to live with us many years… Her parents (great grandparents) had a huge farm and I remember all the animals especially the horses. 🐎
Thank you, Peaches! From the looks of you and your husband, your daughters are just as gorgeous! So is grandma the reason you have green thumbs? I hope you and your girls get your DNA done too. Thanks for watching. Stay blessed 🙏🏽💚
Thank you my friend! 🥰
Wow, finally someone else with Maasai ancestry! My Black ancestors are originally from the eastern low country(south carolina Georgia Florida)and Tennessee and then migrated to Oklahoma, and then my grandparents settled in Seattle. And most of the people you mentioned all show up in my and my fathers and Aunty's ancestry test! For me, igbo and ibibio are the majority followed by yoruba,(Nigeria)then mende and or temne(sierra leone) Central African Congolese generally west african. Generally Kenyan, maasai, north african and then theres Polynesian, native American and then eskimo inuit. And a drop of baltic European. my father and Aunty also has akan asante, south asian, Nigerian congolese. I have a feeling that my ancestors were enslaved by indigenous tribes because both my black grandparents didn't have white admixture, but they did have indigenous admixture more than the drop of European that showed up. And most likely the indigenous people who enslaved my ancestors were probably mixed with European, and then procreated by way of rape into our bloodline. But yeah, i wonder if we must have some common history.
Beautiful Family! Thanks for sharing...
Thank you! And thanks for watching 💚
Very interesting video ❤ A Geechee/Gullah is a person of African ethnicity. You find them in abundance in the Carolinas and Georgia regions. They are original Africans with no mixed blood. Look them up. I first heard of them in a college course on African culture and read about them in a book by Ivan van Sertima. There are also pure Africans who have lived for decades in Mexico (Guerrero, Oaxaca and there’s another place also). Lastly, there were slave descendants living in Louisiana with a distinctly different culture than the French Creole and Cajun people. In rural areas you find tour camps and even slave descendants who will guide you through the African experience on the plantation and such. You may have heard of the controversy currently with the Seminole Natives and Blacks, which is disgraceful and more about finances than blood quantum foolery.
Anyway, this was a beautiful video as you and your daughter, niece and granddaughter are all quite lovely 💖💖
Thank you and thank you for the information. Oh! And you said, niece. These are my two daughters and my granddaughter 💚
@@thebusybrownangel5829 …l stand corrected 💖 l subscribed to your channel. I love a sister who’s a Believer. 🙏🏽I’m an armchair gardener and l love the beauty of Southern California.💖💖💖💖
@@MayMay-el4wg Thank you! Welcome to the family 💚
@Mary ...Very true of the Gullah Geechee. I am 95% African as is the rest of my family and we are from the SC Lowcountry.
@@GeecheeMuslimah5 …we’ve passed through your beautiful state on our way to wherever. Many years ago we ate at a diner owned and operated by beautiful Gullah Geechee people. It is where l first heard of and ate creamed spinach and sweet potato pie. These two dishes can’t be replicated by any other group and l still remember how delicious they both were. ❤️❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️
I am Kenyan and our history as a tribe known as Kikuyus is Hebrew. Our practices, customs and culture is the same as in the Bible. We are a Bantu speaking group and all of us come from the Shem linage. Most slaves were taken from Bantu coasts and there is also another slave trade that was far worse than the transatlantic one called the east African slave trade. You are Hebrew if you have any Bantu blood in you. Also it's interesting that you have Maasai blood because they are a Nilotic speaking group from the lineage of Ham. All east Africans share a cushitic, Nilotic and Bantu blood in different variances especially Kenya, Uganda Tanzania, south Sudan, some parts of Ethiopia and Somali. We urge you to visit this part of the world. Asante
If you know that you are a descendent of Shem, you are semetic, Hebrew from the Middle East. The descendants of Ham, another son of Noah. People migrated further south on the African continent, where the people of Shem we’re pretty much all over the Middle East and northern Africa, mostly Morocco.
Absolutely true you cannot tell a persons ethnicity by the color of their skin. At my temple, we have so many Jews of color, one man was from Wales, and so many from the British Isles, and morocco have darker skin. We even had a lady from Dutch Guiana, but she moved to Israel where everybody thinks she is an Ethiopian.
Rubbish
@@mattikarosenthal3298 Your white skin, the ones with white skin are converts. Your from Japeth. Or Esau.
Well said bro,keep educating our people.The Kamba able bodied men were captured,chained their hands,yoked their necks and trekked all the way to Mombasa then shipped to the Arab world by Arabs to be slaves.
One word to describe all of you and the only one you need to know...GORGEOUS!
Thank you, Beautiful 💚
I've tested with 4 companies. I look forward to the updates every 6mos to a year by a couple of them. When enough more people get tested from different regions the companies can better narrow down the results. If you have the maps of results are put side by side you'll see similarities.
Thanks a lot for sharing. My results from Ancestry is very similar to your girls. I've been taking a deep dive in my family history and DNA on both my mother and father's sides. I will be taking an African Ancestry test very soon. This test can narrow down a tribe and people that matches with your DNA. Super excited.
I've also been called Puerto Rican and Arab in grade school, and I am in fact 66% African 32% western and northern Europe and 1% Indigenous North American.
Thanks for watching and sharing your results. Your DNA is results are very similar to ours. I’m taking Ancestry’s next and then African Ancestry after that 💚
@@thebusybrownangel5829 That's awesome. The only African country I didn't share with you all is Sierra Leone. But still very much in the West African region. Nigeria, Cameroon, Congo, and Western Bantu peoples. Mali, Benin & Togo, Ivory Coast and Ghana.
@@layloe709 sounds like we have all the same regions.
