My two times great grandfather Henry Angel was transported on the Neptune.. horrific conditions.. he went on to marry Mary Wades daughter also Mary ..he was chosen by Hamilton Hume to assist him and Hovell for the famous successful expedition overland to Sydney to Melbourne the story goes on but it is testament that these so called terrible convicts made such an enormous positive contribution to building this amazing nation

Such a joy to see this machine in action!

Extremely detailed - Extremely well organised narrative - All the questions which would naturally arise in the mind of the listener are set out in order and fully answered.

What happened to La Perouse, left Botany Bay after finding Captain Phillip was already there. La Perouse's two ships were then shipwrecked on the Solomon Islands.

I am a relative of Thomas Golledge who was a prisoner on the Neptune

My first cousin and I share not only grandparents but ggp, gggp and so on. Is the ideal to place other lesser cm, specific to one line matches on the individual great grandparents? I understood what I asked but not sure if it is understandable to you.

Your spot on about how rare and resilient this man's story is! I think, it would've been more appropriate if the saying..-(1 of) Buckley's CHAMPS Was used!? He's Bloody REAL Legend mate! Is it possible that even that saying got... Lost in translation, or the good old Aussie; ' FacK-to-Bunt'_ only we know WTF who,or what we're on about prevailed!!!🙃😅

I did tellmegen DNA test! It's not accepted. So I have to do an ancestry or myheritage DNA test ,download te file then upload!!

I've been trying to follow along with not just your video but others. Gedmatch has since changed how they show the list you show at 3:46. The "A" everyone talks about is no longer in gedmatch. do I just need to do a one-to-one autosomal with every match?

I already know my ancestors are from at least 42 different ethnicities. Mostly my mother is this way

About 2 years ago I started researching my DNA and my ancestry. I was shocked at the results. First, I found out that one of my direct ancestors was killed in the Salem Witch Trials. Then I discovered a lot of Northwestern European ancestry. I knew I have a ton of English ancestry but had no clue about the Scandinavian heritage. I dug deeper into that and was able to trace back to some direct ancestors that were Vikings in various areas in Northwest Europe. Pretty cool. I also found distant relationships to some well known historical figures, including some unsavory ones. My True Ancestry was one of the tools I used and once I learned how to use it was a great resource. For a history teacher like myself it has been amazing to see my family history!

240 years ago... French expedition in preparation In 1784 French King Louis XVI got interested in organizing a scientific world circumnavigation expedition to complete the Pacific discoveries made by British naval officer/cartographer James Cook. Besides cartographic & scientific objectives, the French were interested in establishing colonial bases in the North & South Pacific. French naval officer Jean-François de La Pérouse was appointed leader as preparation involved cooperation with the British, anti-scurvy measures, chronometers and navigational instruments, reclassifying storeships as expeditionary frigates (La Boussole and L'Astrolabe). A lot of prearation went into getting the crew together as 10 scientists (astronomer, cartographer, mathematician, botanist, ...) were selected and even a 2nd Lieutenant named Napoléon Bonaparte was expedetion member candidate but wasn't selected in the end. The expedition carried modified sextants, Ramsden telescopes, 5 Horloges à Longitude made by Ferdinand Berthoud (n° 18, 19, 25, 27 & 29) a British chronometer and even 2 Montgolfier hot air balloons! Setting off from Brest on August 1, 1785, the expedition sailed westwards visiting Brazil, Chile, Easter island, Maui, California, Alaska, Kamchatska, Japan, China, Manilla, Samoa, Tonga before reaching Sydney Australia in January 1788. Spending 6 weeks in Sydney, the French set up an observatory and a botanical garden. Anno 2024 "La Pérouse" remains a suburb of Sydney. In March 1788, completely resuppield with water & food, the expedition continued towards the Solomons but both ships were lost in a storm wrecking on the reefs in the Solomon islands. Nothing was heard from the expedition and on January 21, 1793, right before his execution French King Louis XVI uttered the words " A-t'on de nouvelles de monsieur La Pérouse? " In 1825 rumours circulated that New Caledonian natives were seen wearing French uniformes with Louis XVI medals but in 1826 Irish Captain Peter Dillon passing through Solomons learned about 2 French ships that sank at the coast of Vanikoro. Sailing to the little island, he effectively found remains and located one of the anchors of the French ships, which were identified as parts of "L'Astrolabe" in 1828. 60 years ago, in 1964, a French expedition identified the shipwreck of "La Boussoule" but "L'Astrolabe" was only retrieved by 2003. One of the great maritime mysteries, the search for the La Pérouse expedition reads like a thriller involving the search for the "Bounty" mutineers and identifying the dead bodies on Vanikoro. Moreover the expedition was mentioned in Jules Verne's "20000 Leagues Uder the Seas" and among 50 place names in honour of La Pérouse there's a crater on the Moon!

Not bad :)

I’ve just started tracking my family history found a young girl who would have been my great great great grandfathers sister her death was in 1858 she sadly died at 11 years old from tetanus. Her mother never came to collect her body (her father my 4th great grandfather died in 1855 at the age of 32 from inflammation of the lungs he is buried in an unknown location at Camperdown cemetery ) I recently got my hand on her death certificate ‘Jane Rebecca wadley ‘not really much on it says she was buried in Presbyterian cemetery I assume she would have been buried at Devonshire street no application was put in to have her moved probably because the family was poor the husband dead and I guess the mother remarried looking further into it. Is very interesting I’m yet to watch all your video

My 4x great grandfather was Jonathan Griffiths who sailed on Scarborough.

Do you have any information re the nautical training ship records for the Vernon. 1800s

Genomelink just sent me a very bizarre report about my ancestry. It is Ancestry the most reliable company for dna.

A tree a had recently researched for my friend included a Joseph Bridge who had sons who were placed into an institution, descendants living in the Hawksbury and Wollombi districts. A very proud tree indeed.

I can't believe all those air conditioning units and office furniture was left to rot. They could have been sold. Government waste.

I got zip on Genomelink.

Thanks for sharing.

I think Rome was founded by Greek tribes. I have Macedonian.

I have 2 mtDNA matches, one is a 0 GD, and the other is a GD of 2 neither is responsive to my emails. If I understand correctly, the average time lapse for mutation is 3800 years, so it's pretty useless so far. I did find two ancient DNA matches from archeological digs that were very fun to explore but it took some digging as FTDNA did not present them to me and I had to find them myself.

Thank you

What calculator do you recommend if I don't know anything about my ancestry? I am northern spanish european.

Great video, really interesting.

Very helpful!

Thank you for this interesting story.From an Irish Buckley😊

can i use it to change my ancestry

Hey, welcome back! It's been boring without you!

Well you and I are related because I am also related to Rutherford B Hayes.

I got Scordiscii, Panonian Illyrian, Gaul , Thuriggi , and Germanic Cherusi . My family is all from Mexico and Scotland. My closest modern populations are all in Spain and France.

Lovely interesting video. I have liked and subscribed and I'll continue watching all other videos too. Please may I ask, when you submitted the sample of your Greek volunteer.. was there an extra cost? Did you have your volunteer's sample analysed on your account package? I have a Turkish girlfriend who's family is descended from Thessaloniki. I have a Zeus package. I've already analysed my DNA kit. I want to put my girlfriend's DNA on my account package. Is that possible? Can you test a second person's DNA on your my true ancestry account package?

I always thought my #1 single population match being Danish was die to being German and Dutch with ancient tribes arrived in via Scandinavia, however, I recently discovered that my Northwest German ancestor was originally a Scandinavian soldier, who fought with King Gustavus Adolphus II in the 30 Years War before settling in Westphalia. The DNA does not lie, and if the database is large and diverse, it will give you a very good idea of who you are. I was adopted, so this is huge for me. Peace

This one's a cash grabber with lots of spam. Stay away from it.

I have downloaded my raw data but the x data from my autosomal txt file went missing. I have haplogroup data both mitrocondrial and y-data but I cannot run that thru Gedmatch. 😢

What does royal ties mean? Can anyone explain this to me?

But why pay if results are not correct? I think I'm just gonna stick with the free version. I don't wanna pay to they tell me whatever they want

Thank you for the informative video. It was important to hear what mistakes you made as a beginner in the genealogy business! Where I disagree with you is about the credentials. Serious genealogists take the time and make the effort to become credentialed. Why? Not because it is demanded by the law, but because it guarantees a certain standard of work and protects clients from getting poor quality research. Unlike other research fields, where small mistakes in data interpretation don’t carry much weight in the final analysis, a small mistake in genealogy can lead to a completely wrong family tree. The standards of the field have been set by wonderful professionals who have done this work for decades and have much more experience than most of us. They are trying to make genealogy a recognized scientific field of research and have done a great job in setting import standards. I have done genealogy as a hobby for decades. I thought I was pretty good. In fact, I was ready to write my family’s story in a book. I thought I would take a course or two just to make sure I was the best I could be-and discovered how unprepared I was. In the meantime I have joined study groups and am on my way to becoming credentialed. It is a long but important process, but knowing what I know now, I would never hire someone who was not credentialed. Vanessa, why don’t you take your first step towards becoming credentialed?

To be fair it is only because people like you have built these trees that the information is available in the first place. So, no, you have not been wasting your life.

I have some from Japan and Thailand from around 1650, does that mean that they were my ancestors?

Hey Vanessa Bland, I've reviewed your TH-cam channel and see room for improvement Do you want to grow your TH-cam channel?

I got information from Y-halogroups from this website even though I’m a woman. This is very confusing to me

I have some Northern DNA but it's negligible judging purely on looks.

Fun isn’t it? 😎

Do you recommend ancestry or find my past for Australians?

Fascinating.

Dead range! 😂 That's funny. Interesting site.
