I am the child of an identical twin, and my uncle comes up as my father in my DNA results. Considering that my father is deceased, I was quite glad that I managed to get his DNA through my uncle.
The last question about identical twins is the one I had an add-on comment to!!! Thanks for answering that viewer's question (& mine)! You do a fantastic job with these videos!!!
To Siobhan: I noticed Glasgow City, there is an old Italian minority in Scotland, so the 4.3% Sicilian probably comes from Scotland. Wikipedia says that many came over in the 1890s and that there were as many as 4,000 Italian Scots when WW1 broke out and Glasgow is mentioned specifically.
My Grandfather from the1890s told me, 'we always marry the wrong one' (by Parents standards.. 1920.) This continues in our family, with race and religion, marrying a divorced person and all what parents would see as not good enough. I brought one partner home, got criticised and never did that again. Later, he married my Cousin. My parents still had to look at him at family reunions😂. Now I understand why there are so many singles in our family too.(We singles also live our lives to the fullest). Still, my 99 year old Father is still hinting around by saying,
'you' ve made some. (hint hint) decisions (about partners) in your life.' He forgets totally that he declined an arranged marriage, made by his Father before he was 10 years old. He married my Northern European Mother, under fire by his Father. After the smoke cleared, they liked her a lot. DNA as a force, seems to have more power than any parents. Thank goodness for that.. 'mix-up.' Do we actually live until we become a trace element? Talk about reincarnation What's after that? 😊 It's gonna be a short video when the tests come back saying, 'well... you are from the World.' Good luck in all of your decisions GV.
This video reminded me of what an Ethiopian man had said earlier this year. I had met him in town and we had a long in depth conversation. He said that he and his wife came here from Ethiopia to live and work. He also said that they noticed that most black people here do not look like the black people there in Ethiopia and surrounding countries. He said that here most of the black people are lighter skinned and in other ways they just looked and seemed differant physically. I told him about how during slavery not all but many of the female slaves got raped by white men especially the masters. And how runaway slaves would often get absorbed in by Native American tribes and marry one of their women having kids which would lighten their offspings color and change the facial features like it does when a white ancestor is involved.
He had not been aware of that but it made since to him.
He also wandered if it was because his people were often outside working every day in the fields, gardens and with the animals. Being in the sun all day made them be dark all the time he said.
It was interesting because I had noticed the same thing when I was in a country that was black several times, but they had taken over the indengious people's land and married them having children with them which lightened their color but not by a lot.
Maybe some day the world will get over this obsession with melanin and except each other as humans instead of a skin hormone.
Just got my Family Tree mtDNA and Y DNA results. My Dutch ancestors were Sephardi Jewish. 🙏🏼
Have you discovered the names of your Dutch Sephardi ancestors? Dutch records are plentiful and especially for the Sephardi community. If you can identify your most recent Dutch Sephardi ancestors, especially living in Amsterdam, I bet we can find at least one way that we are related.
@@GeneaVlogger I’m slowly working on it but I know of two lines that go back to the Netherlands. The van Vleck line and the Van Kortryk line. The Van Kortryk line goes to Zuid Holland and is a Spanish/Dutch hybrid line.
Interesting! Did you get any specific Dutch Sephardi family names showing up in your Y-matches, especially within a 2 genetic distance or better? You should also consider contacting Adam Brown of the Avotaynu Y DNA project because they might be able to help in telling you more about the results.
@@GeneaVlogger I’ve only gotten the results back from my mtDNA; still waiting on Y. It shows ancestral genetic matches from around the world and a lot of them specifically say Sephardic in the notes column. I’m still new to FamilyTree DNA but I’m trying to decipher how to translate it to my tree.
Somewhat related, but my mom has double cousins. The farms my mom’s parents grew up on were next to each other. My grandparents weren’t the only children from each farm to get married. Family reunions get confusing.
Should add, we are Eastern European Jews, self-identified and spoke Hungarian, but immigrated from Romania.
4:59 you just clarify something for me. I been told my entire life that my second great grandmother was French, married a Spaniard and migrated to the Dominican Republic ( father side) I didn’t get any French on my results for ancestry but I got a 5% Basque. I thought maybe that’s the French ???
Could definitely be. The Basque country is both in France and Spain.
Look at your Ethnicity in that part of Europe. It may be lumped in there. Also remember your ethnicity is an estimate.
If you got any German, that could be French, too.
Research, research, research. Your research will put the results in context most of time.
Thank you for answering my question. I also am 100% Ashkenaz on ancestry. 92% Ashkenaz, 8% sfardi-legend goes I do come from sfardi descent on my heritage. On ancestry I had this girl who was like 1 cm related to me and it didn't show any Jewish heritage on her DNA either.
1 cM for a shared match? Really.
My daughter (8th grade) has a school project on her genealogy tree. Her paternal grandfather is from Yugoslavia and only knows his parents names. What is the best way to find ancestors from a country that no longer exists? (The project is due Monday, so this is just for personal curiosity)
If it were me, I'd get the 30 day free trial on Ancestry and see if their hints help with anything. Birth, Marriage, and Death records are usually the best for finding previous generations. The bigger problem is that its a war torn area. Records are the least of the worries when war happens because remember, even when country borders change, cities still remain. If they were religious and he knew what church they went to, the church would also be a possible repository for records. Church records tend to survive war better than municipal records. But truthfully, she has a solid explanation for her genealogy project for why it isn't more complete if you can't flesh it out more this weekend. I promise, she'll have classmates who can only go so far back with a paper trail too and may not be able to go as far back as great-grandparents even.
@@Chaotic_Pixie thank you. Luckily she can go back 5 generations on my side and her paternal grandmothers side. It's just a blank after her great grandparents on that branch.
Give up , I come from an immigrant background and I never liked the family tree things because I only wrote my parents name and the rest were lost your going to be up all night trying to finish an 8th grade project
Do you know from what ex-Yu state??? Do you know area/city where he come from? And of course time period can be tricky,older =harder,but if you know date of birth/marriage/death and start there. Local townships office have at least that.But everything depends on how much information you have and from where (part of ex-Yu) you need them
This guide is a good place to start - www.familysearch.org/en/wiki/Yugoslavia_Genealogy
I must admit I am so jealous of anyone who gets a "communities" result. I literally have none. 😆
Hi Jared can you do a reaction video of Miss Tara Cotta’s DNA results? She / he did 3 tests with 3 different companies.
Awesome analysis! I was adopted but I found my bio parents in 1983 via library newspaper phish birth announcements. I had gathered some info from them...I actually went out to meet my bio mother and father and even went to meet my great grandmother who was still alive! All kinds of bio cousins were there to meet me! In 1998, 1999 I did a genealogy search...more extensive searches. From the family knowledge I was able to get a great start! The family names from both sides. My great grandfather William Allen had red hair but no one knows where he came from or his history (my bio mom's side). Also, my bio mother's father no one knew where he was from or his history. Arthur Hart. I believe both men were born in the late 1800's. They wer much older then their wives. As it turns out, I am 99.6% European. Of that 77.8% British and Irish with even Glascow (Scotland) named. German 15.1 and Baden-Wurttemberg is mentioned and that lines up from my bio mother's mother's family account from where they came from. I was told that there is Italian in the family. Well, this piece of info must have been handed down in the family for a very long time! LOL. Yes, Italian but itsy bitsy amt. 1.7% Italian and .6 Sardinian. 2.3% southern European. Then there is: .2% Broadly NW Asian and .1% north African and then .1 unassigned. This report is from 23andme. Then I did Heritage. A bit different results: 49.3% North and West European, 37.7% Irish, Scottish, Welsh. English 10.9%, Finnish 2.1% . My Heritage doesn't really "pinpoint" so called locations like 23andm3 does. All the last names make total sense for my DNA/family with the origins. Getting back to 23andme report and the odd locations that are low percentages....I was told that on my bio mother's side, her mother...they were "dark" Germans. My grandmother, Isma, had black hair and my bio mother, Sarah, had dark-ish complextion. Very meditarranean looking. It's truly interesting to find out where one comes from and why there's certain talents, etc. Turns out that my bio mother was very musical and so am I. It also turns out that my bio aunt is a nurse and that has been for my bio sister and I as well. Heck...I wanted to ask you something and now I forgot after writing all of this! UGH! Well...I LOVE your channel and there's such great information you present! Thank you for your hard work. Shabbat Shalom.
That's very interesting.. thanks for sharing

I have 30% Celtic via MyHeritage but no Celtic ancestry for 6 generations. But none of the other sites show that so I’m happy to ignore myheritages ethnicity values. LivingDNA appears more accurate in that light
RE: A person who is mostly Irish but also a bit Sicilian... She could look at her matches to see if there is anyone who is mostly Italian or something "regional" like that... but not at all Irish or British. That type of observation would suggest that it's legitimate. Especially if she can see that pattern of matching some 0% Irish (NW European) repeated after uploading to FTDNA or wherever else.
What a wonderfully hilarious meme. I bet the guy who made that is super smart and funny. 👀😂
I wonder who it could be! 🤔😂
I really like a lot of your video content. I would really appreciate it if you can speak to the issue of limitations on a DNA test. If one tests Mt or Y chromosomal DNA it can go back far but there is a blind spot in not showing the line of the mother's father or the father's mother. In an autosomal test it generally goes about 250 years and includes about 120 genetic relatives. It seems confusing that in a way we are still in the infancy of studying genetics at this level. 99.9% of DNA to the naked eye is more similar than dissimilar. Can you predict when all the problems could potentially be illiminated?
Just a kind reminder Relative Race Season 9 started tonight ( Feb 27) 😁
Blessings. What’s the best way to trace my family tree? To find names and old photos of historical family members? Is 23 & me good or ancestry?
From my experience it has been from Ancestry because of all the countless marriage, birth, death, and senses records etc. I have found pictures on there of my ancestors from distant cousins that I don't know. Also highschool yearbook pics. The bad part is in order to get all of that to the full extinct I had to pay the membership fee, but it was worth it because it gave me the paper trail to my Native ancestors that we knew existed but we didn't know the tribe. The paper trail gave us not 1 but 2 tribes.
April 28th, 2022 I have an update on ancestry dna! It's breaking down my dna by estimates on how much I have from each parent!!!! They're calling this new feature 'Ethnicity Inheritance' ... it's interesting but actually created a new puzzle for me to figure out. I suddenly have Northern Italian dna which I never had before... and it appears to be from my fathers family which we have documented as generations back to about 1600 living in Germany.
A possibility (that happened in my 100% German family): After the 30 Years War had ended in 1648, many people had died and lots of buildings had to be repaired/rebuilt. So there was work for many builders or stonemasons from the Alps who came to Germany, and often married and staid. The northernmost part of modern Italy (Southern Tyrolia) is actually a German speaking region, so DNA from that general area could have traveled that way.
The family names of these builders would have been German, even if their home is a part of Italy today. (Some also got new family names like "Schweizer" (Swiss) or "Maurer" (bricklayer/builder).
I have been researching my father's paternal side since I was 12, with almost no progress. My father has passed, so I asked my uncle to take a Y-chromosome test, which he did. I had hoped it would point me in a direction, but it turns out that haplogroup G2 M-377, or G2b M-377 is one for which science has not been able to pinpoint origin., and is found all over a wide range of countries. The test my uncle took was a 37 marker test. How would having him take a 111 marker test help in finding family? I have searched every family members names in all the various spelling permutations, at every website available, but can not find anything on my paternal great grandfather"s family, except the births of several children, who then vanish from all records. I'm at a standstill. Would spending for the additional Y chromosome test help and how? Thanks.
It'd probably be more effective to have him do an autosomal DNA test, rather than a more detailed Y chromosome test. Assuming he's a full sibling of your father, he'll share 50% of your father's autosomal DNA. This will give you a rough estimate of ancestry, and help sort between distant Y chromosome matches and those who are actually close paternal relatives.
I hope to someday see an answer to a puzzle I learned of during my time in the military.
Identical twin Marine corporals Married identical twin sisters. Their wedding photos were like double exposures. So, the next obvious step is offspring. How genetically close are the cousins born to both families?
Full siblings

My family tree Germany
My daughter just received her DNA test results from 23&me. Were stumped. Because it said 10% German & French non dected. What the hell does that mean. How can she be 10% German & French. But they can't dected. Ok im at a loss now.
It means, they couldn’t detect any more specific regions for “French & German”.
@@JediSimpson Most people ignore that northern French people are in fact German, and that both France and actual Germany were part of the same empire,ruled by Charlemagne.
In the medieval times, french people call themselves "franc" or "Franck" in English, which is also a surname.
German people still call the french, Frankreich (kingdom of the Frank). Frankfort was an important Franck military settlement in Holland, where the Frank originated.
Basically french are German speaking a Latin language, with a important admixtures of recent Italian, spanish immigrants.
Why doesn't Ancestry have blood type my husband has O Rh Negative but did see a spot to add your blood type???
as someone from Glasgow City I am offended you blatantly misread it as Glasgow county. (At least he pronounced Glasgow rightish, unlike 90% of Americans. Glasgow county doesn't even exist. most people would say glasgow is in the county of Lanarkshire but that doesn't matter nowadays.
(also see the glasgow Italian comment from @ Weeping Scorpion
(edited to fix typo)
Please react to Assyrian/Aramean/Chaldean dna test/videos!! We are one of the oldest people groups in the Middle East and we do not count ourselves as Arabs.
I think you'd be interested in making a video about my DNA results, I've been all over the news recently, my results are posted on my channel, check them out, two video, one for myheritage and the other is mitochondrial DNA
