    Just fantastic, I'm brand new to MyHeritage and building the family tree (South African with French and English ancestry). This video is exactly what I was looking for and so easy to listen to.

    The next step in DNA is the automatic reconstruction of ancestor's DNA. I think eventually you'll have the option of seeing your grandparent's DNA matches from their reconstructed DNA kit.

    My Heritage does show us DNA relationship in cM between any two matches! Ancestry is not capable of that. Biggest reason for me to use it, because some of my matches match both parents.
    But, beware of annual renewal at full $500 price which happens without email warning, with no chance to reverse. Ancestry is much more polite about that, with both a heads up email and a grace period.

      Ancesrty has '''extendnded matches" for $10/mo as part of their pro tools that does exactly what you say they are incapable of doing. Ancestry with their much larger database that is more relevant to U.S. users is the clear leader in DNA. Ancestry knows it. My Heritage knows it. They don't need to pay people to review their product. They could have a chromosome browser or other tools, but at this point they have made a marketing decision not to.

  • @DanSolo871

    The next feature MyHeritage should add is a "triangulation label" (time stamp 17:08)
    Using the chromosome browser, when you review and confirm triangulated segments, you should be able to label that segment with that ancestral couple.
    Then, when you view only YOUR chromosome segments, when you hover over strands of DNA, it'll tell you which branch you inherited that DNA from.

    ok slow but sure, watched your 400th episode, I learned a lot there. so I got one of my ancestor's names, got the whole line, up to the 15'oos. I see what you mean now! so one ancestor at a time, and I got a trouble some one, three guys named the same thing! I also mixed their spouses up. but not getting overwhelmed, I stopped, checked my closest ancestor with that name and that is what I am working on now.

    A friend had been searching for the cause of death for her great grandfather for a long time. No one living back then was still around and her grandmother had never heard how her father had died when she was a baby (he had been in his twenties). MyHeritage was the only site where I was able to find the information. Tragic railroad accident.

    I had the same issue with the 1920 census in Detroit when it was first released (of course it was a while ago LOL). I could not find my husbands grandfather, Julius Demeulemeester. It was next to impossible to go page by page with the extent of the Detroit census and he wasn't here in 1910. Sooooo, I decided to think "laterally". Long story short... I found him in the Detroit directory and wrote down his neighbors names and looked THEM up. Bingo. I found him listed but the transcriber mistook the "u" in Demeulemeester as an "n" messing up the whole soundex search. I've noticed since then that it is often transcribed that way so that was an educational moment. So, if you have a lost family member in a city that has Directories... they may be your "friend"!

    Does anyone on here know why I have not received my new and improved ethnicity update? I’ve been hearing about it for six months. Still nothing.

  • @scotbotvideos
    @scotbotvideos 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +9

    I prefer the tree functionality of Ancestry than that of MyH, but the latter's DNA matching is superior. MyH shows us the relationship between matches, not just how we relate to our matches, and this IMO enables us to work out how some of those matches may match us even if they don't match our parents who we've also tested.
    I do have some complaints, though. Oftentimes the Theory of Family Relativity on MyH is wildly inaccurate. That is to say it doesn't match one's own paper-trail. Users should be leery of this and not automatically assume the theory is correct.
    With respect to ethnic composition, I've heard from Redditors that some people get ethnicities they weren't expecting. For instance, Poles getting "Irish, Scottish and Welsh" when they don't believe they've got any ancestry from these nations. Well, in this case, there are two possibilities: 1) Scots settled in Prussia during the latter Middle Ages; 2) Scottish mercenary soldiers fighting for the Kingdom of Sweden likely ended up settling in the places in which Sweden was fighting. Hence why I get matches in the Baltics and Russia.

    • @Hamuel
      @Hamuel 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I have 2% Greek and Italian on MyHeritage but no where else and nowhere near those regions are mentioned in my pedigree paper trails so I immediately dismissed my MyHeritage estimate upon seeing it

    • @scotbotvideos
      @scotbotvideos 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      @@Hamuel So my MyH gives me Andean and Mesoamerican as well as Finnish results. My other kits from ADNA and 23Me uploaded to MyH don't give me the Andean but do maintain the Finnish. The prevailing theory is that the A&M is really Ancient North Eurasian DNA being picked up and that this is also prevalent in Finnish DNA; why I've got Finnish DNA I'm putting down to the Vikings, after all MyH claims to go back about a 1000 years.
      Now with respect to other family members, my mother gets some Italian, but nowhere on our tree (at time of writing anyway) does it indicate any Italian ancestry whatsoever. However, I've only yet managed to explore my maternal Scottish side, which is really about all of it, apart from one man from Ireland about 200 years ago. So my theory in regards to the Italian is that this Irish gentleman had some Italian DNA on account of soldiers from the Papal States being in Ireland during the 16th to 17th century in southern Ireland to help local petty kings fight against the English during the Desmond Rebellions. Their DNA eventually came to Scotland via our man William, but that's just a hunch and can't be proven (perhaps never will be) at this point in time.
      I do get a lot of Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish matches, as of course do both my parents. I ascribe that to the aforementioned info in my first comment on the video, i.e. Scottish soldiers going to Scandinavia (either as volunteers or deported there) and thence settling there after their service had been fulfilled. Another reason is I may have ancestry from Scotland's Northern Isles, i.e. Shetland and Orkney, which at one time were leased to Norway, and would have some settlement by Danes and Norse alike, never mind the Viking aspect. My Dad gets about 16 matches with people on the Faroes, and on MyTrueAncestry shares approximately 60cM with the Sandoy Church dig cadaver, implying he had an ancestor who was perhaps a 3rd cousin with the person buried there.
      And this is the point I'm trying to make: just because it's not apparent why we have certain ethnicities in our heritage doesn't mean the results are faked. It just means that some of us aren't quite as aware of our familial and national histories as perhaps we'd normally claim. Ancestry research is a marathon, not a sprint, especially if you want accuracy and not just to full it up with names.

    You mention looking and belonging to as many resources as possible. My question is how much is the average a person should expect to pay per month for all these resources? I mean tons of people complain on ancestry about the monthly cost. You have your fees, Heritage has their fees, everyone seems to have fees. I was curious as to what I should expect going forward on my journey as a genealogist as far as month expense to all these resources.

    I am European and on MyHeritage as well and making my family tree there. I already have 1969 people so far. It did cost quite some time though haha. I am happy that my grandmothers and my grandfathers families already did some research of their family lineage. We also added pictures and did DNA testing with myself, grandmother (mothers side), father and my sister. Also the son of my fathers half-brother did the DNA test and he was indeed related to us. My fathers lineage goes back to 1400s and then I can not find it anymore hahah.

    I wish some of the large groups like Ancestry or My Heritage would start doing DNA from envelopes, stamps, etc. of deceased relatives. I know there are some companies that already do this, but at a much greater cost. Ancestry could make it affordable, and imagine boosting your family's DNA one or two generations ahead and much closer to brick-wall ancestors.

      @GenealogyTV I did look into one of those companies a few years ago about an envelope and stamp from my grandmother, and through emailed pics, they said that there is probably enough to get a good DNA sample. Unfortunately, the price was beyond my budget. Last year, I found an elderly cousin to take the Ancestry autosmal test, and he was generationally closer to our brick-wall ancestor than anyone, but unfortunately, he passed away about three months after taking the test. His results have been amazing, solidifying several lineages, but we still do not have knowledge yet of the parents of our brick-wall.
