- This video is an updated look at my current Ancestry DNA ethnicity update for 2020.
I discuss the new additions to my estimate and try to reason how and why. My African blood still reigns supreme though.
Ancestry state that they have more populations added and the science is better.
I am still researching my family tree any tips welcomed and any tips on working out how my connections connect. Some paper trails are not that easy to find.

Nice ❤ 🇳🇬 you are welcome home pretty
My sis, congratulations on your overwhelming African heritage.... that is rare and no doubt your ancestors will be looking down on you proudly. I would like to say however that the overriding tribe that your DNA results suggest is the Yoruba tribe. I say this because of where your highest percentages are from are Nigeria, Benin and togo. These three modern day countries were once the all part of Yoruba land..... that was until colonisation separated them. Yorubas people in their numbers still exist in these countries. I am a Yoruba man and about two years ago I did my ancestry DNA test. My results came back as being 72% Nigerian and 28% from Benin and Togo. When I told my father about my results (who is in his early nineties), he was surprised and attributed my results to the inter tribal wars that took place over the centuries.
Also, about a month ago, I watched a video of another British Jamaican discovering her DNA heritage. She had similar results to yours i.e. Mostly Nigerian, Benin and Togo. In one of her replies to a post by "Courtney Davis", she confirms that she has discovered that she has Yoruba heritage.

My final clue is your appearance..... You look Yoruba.
Peace My Kween.
Hey I think we are related lol 😂 our results are very identical but honestly we are all scattered so we really are . Anyways I subbed 🥰
I really think that search engines like Wiki etc need to update their research about the ancestry of Jamaicans because they suggest that Jamaicans most likely come from Ghana however most of the DNA results from Ancestry DNA test demonstrate that more Jamaicans have Nigerian roots.
Hi. Thanks for watching my video. Yes it does need updating as Jamaican heritage is across West Africa with pockets of other African nations. Ancestry have done a recent update and now my results have Ghana as the highest followed by Nigeria Benin Togo. However the percentages are quite close. I will do an update video soon. Ancestry now has 2 distinct regions for Nigeria; Nigeria and Nigeria East Central. My results are just Nigeria region and not the Nigeria East Central. Thank you for the info you shared as well. Much appreciated
@@SoFrolushes: Thank you for your response.
@@SoFrolushes: I'm Yoruba and having watched your video predicted that there is a strong likelihood that you have dominate Yoruba Heritage. Long story short, I did a DNA test about two years ago and to my surprise it came back 72% Nigerian and 28% Benin and Togo. Yoruba people to this day populate these three countries and were only separated by the borders drawn as a result of colonialism. I've just seen this DNA result of another Jamaican, which in many ways are similar to yours and mine and I thought that I'd share it with you.

@@blackmagic6 My Igbo friend reckons I am more Igbo. I need to check gedmatch again as it tells you more precisely. I kmow both Igbo and Yoruba show up as well as fulani
@@SoFrolushes: Thanks for your response. Did you watch the video that I linked?
I wouldn't read too much into the low percentages because they are estimated 0-whatever percentage. Most likely is English DNA since they will share a lot of DNA with other European groups...
I wouldn't put too much into ancestrydna percentages period, low or high, because ancestrydna has a tendency to exaggerate, 23andme is more accurate, but low percentages can be very accurate, ancestrydna gives me low percentage Native American which I know is definitely there, it's showing higher percentages on other tests. Ancestrydna tells you itself don't put too much into percentages no matter the amount, percentages are the least accurate of all of the results. My Nigerian on ancestrydna went from 3% to a whopping 62% back down to 49%, if you know for sure you have certain ancestry percentages don't mean much.
I am working on my paper trail too. I see these as helpful in research as with dna we only get 50% from each parents so some things may not show up as are recessive etc.
@@SoFrolushes You don't always receive 50% from each parent you can receive as low as 25% with the remainder from the other parent. DNA is very random and unpredictable.
@@honeyjazz4147pretty sure she meant 50% of your dna comes from one parent and the other 50% from the other. Also, you can get less than 25% of one of your parents dna. Like if they have 30% of one place you could inherit it all or you could inherit none (you probably would habit as you said dna is random and unpredictable).
Your make up looks great. 💕
Thank you x
I'm Jamaican and 30% sephardic Jewish my Jewish side are Spanish and Portuguese and I'm proud of every place I'm from! Remember every true jew knows the lost tribes of isreal are the original Jews and they were ethiopian.... This is why rasta where the star of david with the lion as salassie was the last of the blood line from King David.. I would claim that 1% aha
I claim all my DNA. It's mine after all
YOU NOT A LOST TRIBE OF ISRAEL....THE WORD LOST MEANS NEVER FOUND,,,THE TRIBES HAVE NEVER BEEN LOST BECAUSE WE KNOW WHERE THEY WENT,,,,
You are Igbo, I told you.
possibly. IWill take another look at gedmatch as it breaks down ethnicity
Keep us posted
Wrong. She is more likely to have more Yoruba DNA.
@@blackmagic6 Most Nigerians who went to Jamaica were Igbo
@@pedrocarlito4498: The DNA results says different.... and there are lots of them. I'll go with the DNA results every time over anecdotal.... if that's ok with you? SMDH.
98% black👍🏾
I think she's 96% African.

That is quite a mix.
And European Jewish have nothing do with the Spanish
Bruh... Show or explain what you mean ?
@@rozartdagr8364 exactly what I said European Jews have nothing to do with the Spaniards...
@@rozartdagr8364.... did you watch her video
Hi @kwame owusu please explain more as it will help me with my research and I can compare it against the info Ancestry has and I can ask in my dna groups too. Thanks for watching x
@@SoFrolushes he's probably referring to Ashkenazi ppl from central and eastern European.
