You might check back in six months. Ancestry DNA is always refining the localities. Mine has changed several times (mostly the percentages) and as near as I can tell getting more accurate each time. The first run showed me with 44% Ireland and now it's down to 25% which fits. I had one grandparent that was from Ireland so I should be a quarter Irish. I like seeing peoples reactions to their DNA results. It can be fun. Good video.
they now include migration routes and areas populated in the US. my fathers folks came from west russia/ukraine (and surprisingly jewish diaspora mixed with morocco area), my mothers from england and scotland, via canada (she had british citizenship during ww2), and now my legacy is in tennessee and virginia. i surprisingly met distant cousins in tennessee and NC (one was a famous movie producer there, largest studio on the east coast). IOW, an all american mutt.
Your percentage does not change. If they are changing your results that screams they don't know what they are doing. They should have gotten it right and stuck with it from the very first. I don't trust it if it changes at all.
I got results from both Ancestry and 23 and Me. 23 and me was different and found a small amount of Native American. Each testing company has differences.
I was adopted, but met my Lakota birth mother and two half siblings in the 70s. Last year I did the 23&me test, and was contacted by my birth fathers family, he is Oneida. I now have my full family tree on both sides. I’m a direct descendant of both Chief Bull Bear (Lakota) and Chief Skenandoah (Oneida). The white/indian mixing happened 4-5 generations ago in just about every branch of my family, making me 17/32 native.
The Colombian DNA might come from your Spanish side when they settled there. Just because you see countries in your DNA does not mean your people came from there it can mean they migrated there that is why your DNA shows up there.
@@MonikaReardigan We have common genetics with most Latin countries. There is a lot of migration, but we know our roots. We are the seeds of the Americas.
@MonikaReardigan So true. We r from 2 Mexican tribes. We know our great great grandfather was from Spain. His wish was to be buried in Spain. He is buried in Spain and never has flowers on his resting place. All others are full Native or Meztizo. Our genetics are very high percentages of Native. However, the DNA seems to list every town my grt, grt grandfather, had a cousin or relatives. We just bunch it together as European. The genetics can confuse you. There are genetics, and there is culture life style.
If i were you I'd check your results again because the maps change so the areas shaded in change as they add more regions and split them off from ones they think they couldn't identify before. Also anything before a certain %, i think 2% is considered a trace result and could be just a misread so i wouldn't get too hung up on those as they might not be correct. I would suspect the Colombian indigenous reading is really part of the Mexican indigenous reading or the way the Ancestry processing works, which i don't think takes into account any parents that have taken the test to identify which chromosomes are from one parent or another and only uses its matching algorithm against its reference panels for each region might be getting it wrong. On the whole of seems as it should be from what you already knew. It's amazing to see it correctly identify the Native American DNA because I've heard that many people in these communities are hesitant to take DNA tests and their populations aren't that big.
@@mattpotter8725 I was under the impression that they sent me an email if they ever recalibrate my DNA with their updated master list. Is that not true? My son's mom is North American Native with one 3rd great grandpa who is Danish. I am Southwest Native. The Columbian didn't show up in mine or my mother's but it showed up in my son's. It's a mystery to me. 😵💫
@RyanSwank423 Maybe, but even if they've not reprocessed your results the definition of map for what they define as France might change so your map may look exactly like your son's. It'd be worth a look.
You mean everyone doesn't know that these tests are not 100% accurate? They have tested identical twins and come up with completely different results for each twin. They are sort of in the ballpark, but your son's result aren't different because he only inherited this marker or that, it's because the testing is only sort of accurate. They keep changing the results over time, ask yourself why.
As I understand it, the results change over time because the company is gathering more genetic information and needs to recalibrate my genetic relationship to their updated information. Based on my knowledge of my personal family history over the last 300 years, the test is accurate.

@@nevynd9922 I'm excited to see the updates. My mom got a few updates on hers and it was always fun to see. 😁

@@SharonMcauley-h1w haha! What clan are you? I don't even remember if I mentioned in the video or not what my clan is. I am Clan Leslie.

So a little more than half & half!

Or it might just be a misread, 1% is a trace result and this can happen.

Good evening sir! 23 & Me found Native American in me!
Like this 👍, quality is good
@@elijahthagoat thank you!
very cool
Shout out, I’m also Jemez Pueblo, and Mesoamerican Mexican ancestry.
@@azborderlands 🥳
Denisovans in that area of south America. Denisovan have also been found in tribes in what is now the US. I have Neanderthal DNA.
@@jpavlvs That's fascinating! I knew they tested for Neanderthal DNA, but I didn't know they tested for Denisovan as well.

@@RyanSwank423 I would have to agree, My results have not come back yet but my dads did and they even got the ancestral journeys down to the city
