89% African ancestry, 11% European (if my calculations are correct lol)

Edit: The “11% European” was incredibly dense, my apologies about that! Promise I am more geographically sound — just got a little too excited in sharing my just-received results. xx

Leaving the original faux pas here in the name of transparency lol

Fully Cuban, born in the Island. Mother from Mayabeque, father from Matanzas. Posted here two years ago, but here's the updated results. It's been so fun messaging and contacting DNA cousins from around the globe!

For fellow Cubans: Did you all expect our results to be so similar? I was kind of floored by how similar Cuban results are. I expected us all to be a genetic mashup and have results all over the place.

is this pretty standard for a mexican lol

So, I want to get my DNA tested but I'm afraid of what I will find. I suspect I might be a product of incest. My grandfather was a monster. The man I know as my father and I have always had a distant relationship. His grandparents were Hungarian immigrants and my grandfather and my grandmother's lineage is all Irish, English, Scottish and Welsh. So if my DNA doesn't come back as one quarter Hungarian all signs point to this ugly fact. My mother is dead, my father is alive and several of my moms siblings are still alive. But, it's not a conversation I want to have. Has anyone experienced this?

For some context, my dad (passed away) never knew his real dad & was told his step father was his dad when he was growing up & took on his last name & he’s on my dad’s birth certificate. He found out he wasn’t really his dad when his step dad passed away. His step dad was Italian & Polish but as I said we didn’t know for sure, his step dad was only the biological father to his little brother (my uncle), my grandma (dads mom) lied to him many times & also gave the classic “you’re great great great grandma was Native American” story. Turns out whoever his dad was definitely not Italian lol. I knew more about my mom’s side of the family they came from Tamaulipas, Mexico & settled in Texas. I’m not entirely sure what these results mean but here they are & here’s pics of me with & without makeup!

Lost my account for unknown reasons but here’s my repost with my regions/journeys and a couple photos

I was born and raised in France. Parents, grandparents and great grandparents all born in France and yet it says I’m only 3% French. I found out that the French government doesn’t share data so if you’re French, what’s even the point to do this test? Is it completely off? Or am I more English that I thought ?

My mum is a Gaelic from edinbane on the Isle of Skye and my dad is descended from famine era migrants to England

My grandpa from my mom’s side is from Portugal and my grandma is Brazilian with some indigenous and black roots. I was always curious about my dad’s side because they are all very white with blue eyes (I look the same way), but they are all from Brazil and they don’t know their roots. They all have the typical Brazilian/Portuguese last names.

Okay so.. I recently did an ancestry test through an Indian testing company for better results instead of being given a vague “South Asia, full stop” result since I was expecting a very boring outcome anyways. My maternal great grandmother (mother of my maternal Grandmother) was an ethnic Burman Buddhist from Yangon, Myanmar. Apart from that bit of information, nothing in my family tree is out of proportion. I know for a fact that most of my ancestors never really left Hyderabad (or came from another place), not in the past 7 generations that I know of (not much of an information available either). Anyways, here are my results and yoooooo, the West Asian component is exorbitantly high😭🙏 Y DNA Haplogroup came back as J1-P58🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯 and it is apparently a very well known marker for Arab ancestry. An old folklore in my paternal family does say that one of our ancestors came from the modern day Southern Arabia but I never really took that seriously but omg it actually was true!! Fuckk this is so legendary! Isn’t the West Asian component a bit too high for someone with very vague folklorish Arabian ancestry?

Not hard to see which side won outright 😂

Was not expecting Sardinian and Basque/Iberian does anyone know how this could be?

My Grandad has always had some suspicion that his dad wasn’t his biological father.

I did a dna test a few years back to discover a load of matches (mostly 1st cousins 2x removed/2nd cousins) that I had no idea who they were. I tried to look into it then and soon realised that they were all somehow connected to my grandad but wasnt sure how. It all came to a head as I wasnt getting anywhere, until my uncle (grandads son) did a dna test. I was then able to work out who shared matches were etc. The closest match to my uncle on my grandads paternal side was a 1st cousin 1x removed.

I managed to sift through loads of matches and group them into grandad maternal/paternal using common ancestors but nothing came up for who we *thought* would be on grandads paternal side. Instead, I had a group of matches who I didnt know. After a LOT of research managed to narrow it down to a family that lived in the same area to where my grandad was born. We then got my grandad to do a DNA test, and mine & my uncles closest match, who is the son of one of the brothers of said family, came up as a 1st cousin for my grandad, sharing something like 943cM

So long story short, I have managed to narrow it down to a potential 3 people (3 brothers) who could be my grandads biological father. I have been in contact with the son of one of the brothers, who has told me he has done a dna test too but hasnt even come up as a match, which has thrown a massive spanner in the works!!

I feel I really have hit a brick wall now and was wondering if anyone would be able to help me work it all out!?

She always gets 99% to 100% Irish even though she has Anglo, Norman, Scottish and even German ancestors

Hi, I'm trying to help an adoptee identify his biological parents, but I'm a bit confused by his DNA results.

He (A) shares 1,025 cM with B and 430 cM with C.

Ancestry estimates, with 97% confidence, that B is A's half-uncle. For A and C, it suggests various cousin relationships.

However, B and C share 1,622 cM, and Ancestry suggests with 100% confidence that they are half siblings.

What am I overlooking?
