      😆 my mother swears up and down that we're related to French royalty. According to my dna test that isn't true but if we are it's so distant it literally doesn't matter because i told her that i studied European royal genealogy for years since i was 12 and the French Borbons have members alive still that have an actual claim if France were to become a monarchy of some sort again, which i doubt will ever happen.

    Just got my results from 23&Me last night, and found them to be very thorough and complete, and quite close to what I was expecting given the information that I have about my ancestors. The service was affordable and I only had to wait about 25 days for the results to be ready. The whole thing is very interesting, and I am glad I did it!

    Just a note on the haplogroups. Female customers WILL have a paternal haplogroup if their father or full-brother have tested with 23andMe. I am female and only had a maternal haplogroup listed... until my father tested, and once we confirmed our relationship as father and daughter, 23andMe listed his Y-haplogroup as mine. Similar thing for my mother... she had just a maternal haplogroup, until her full-brother tested, they confirmed their sibling relationship, and then she was given his Y-haplogroup. :-)
    Also, beware... you might uncover some family secrets! Our family got a HUGE surprise *close* relative that we never knew about.

We both descend from families: Opaliński, Potulicki, Ostroróg, Kostka, Tomicki, Brzozogajski, Lubrański, Pilecki and many more. Not only Poles: for example Marie de Marcellanges from France (1490-1530) is our common ancestor

    I had forgotten 6th grade science class. It amazes me how Y chromosome traces fathers fathers direct line. I'm glad you addressed this. XX is a bit more vague for me, still learning. Just so fascinating and profound to me to ponder it all. Two children or siblings receiving more dna of a parent than other etc. And that our ancestors truly keep giving . Sounds sappy, but miraculous to me. Correct me if I am wrong. Ancestry has pure privacy control, while 23 & me can share your dna with any research org?

      Just in case you are still wondering how they get the Mothers Mothers direct line: Thex don't do it with the X Chromosomes, but with the Mitochondria. The Mitochondria have their own set of DNA. From your Mother comes the egg cell, that contains Mitochondria. From your Father comes only his part of the DNA, No Mitochondria. So they are Always from Your Mother. Her Mitochondria are from her Mother and so on.

    Descendants of Norman french. This also shows Scandinavian and Welsh dna.
    Father's side shows German and Russian which is weird cuz my father was Hungarian from Slovenia.

In a swamp in that area a gold helmet was found linking it to the Spanish invasion of Europe. I love watching your tutorials and I have learned a lot. You have awoken my love of research of my familytree. A nephew of my grandfather worked on our familytree and published it for hundreds of Dutch people to go by.

    I'm very much looking forward to the results, because I know I am very very mixed!
    Sadly makes it kinda hard to confirm things to my self. Since most of my knowledge is more vague.
    But for the people who do know what to expect, it's always been about that with a few surprises.
    What I am aware of, to my knowledge I'm:
    25% British
    25% German
    18.75% Italian
    18.75% African
    12.5% Irish.
    Likely allot more I'd bet.
    Also my wife will be doing one as well.
    It's likely going to be closer to the latest expected time considering when I got mine.
    I'm sure they sold many kits on Prime Day.

    While the Spanish & Portuguese percentage may be coming from your distant Sephardi ancestor, it isn't for sure that is the case as it could be coming from any of your lines. At only 1% it could be as simple as an error in the reading, an artifact, or it could be that one of your ancestors was actually Spanish and had moved to Germany where they had children with one of the locals. One of the problems with the admixture estimate percentages is that they are just estimates, so it's best to take all the information with a grain of salt. As you mentioned a little later in the video, things will change as more people test and they learn more about the origin of SNPs but it is usually those small percentages that will disappear.

All the other companies keep away from that and just define everyone under Ashkenazi Jewish (although Ancestry changed their wording to European Jewish). Even so, most Sephardi Jews who have proven paper-trails through triangulated cousins are mostly showing as Ashkenazi on MyHeritage and all the other websites.

    It's an interesting experience.

    The problem with DNA tests is not all of your ancestors' DNA survives to the present. You only get 50% from each parent; the other 50%, which is lost, may contain unique information of a distant relative from an unknown region. However, your brother or sister may still have that information.

Very scary if it deletes your immediate relatives... I had zero matches, dating back 1400 years minimum.(it proves I had an error- and they do NOT back down when they make mistakes).

I am quite frustrated because what customer service is asking me to provide, I am not capable of doing on my device possibly because it is now 9 years old and I am married to an IT professional who can't help me because he only understands Microsoft and he refers to my iPad as the alien operating system. LOL. So bottom line I overall was very happy with 23 and Me until this past October. I did purchase it for my only Brother after our Father passed in order to find out my Y-DNA and damned if he and I aren't two of the MAIN European haplogroups. R1b and MtDNA H5a1, however I am quite curious as to how blood type ties into DNA groups. Both of our parents were Rh O- and all other relatives on the Paternal side, don't know about Mom's side because they passed young and were estranged. If you have any thoughts let me know.

    Hey man, a few things about the percentages:
    we all get 50% of our genes from each of our parents. however, our sperms or eggs contain a random combination of the genes of those parents. they are not split 50:50 necessarily. so in most cases, you do not give the same amount of your fathers as of your mothers genes to your kids. one of them will usually be more than 50% of your "contribution" (so more than 25% of your childs DNA) while the other one will be a bit less.
    this means your 32% irish heritage might actually be just your grandma.
    it is a very common misconception that we all get equal shares from each of our ancestors. that is simply not correct.
    it is theoretically possible that someone has no genes in common with one of their grandparents (that can theoretically be the case if all of the genes in your sperm happen to be either from your fathers or mothers side).
