Very similar family situation, my dad, his siblings, and all of my cousins got requests on Facebook from an unknown man. He took a DNA test, turned out he was “secretly” adopted by a “catholic” family in Texas. Apparently, my papa knocked up a young lady in New York and her family sent her to an army base in Texas to have the kid and have a family on the base adopt him. It’s been a weird 3 years of my dad learning he’s not the oldest sibling, his dad most likely cheated, the difference between northeast thinking and southern thinking, yet still trying to figure out how to welcome him into the family he always wanted and help him get to know his heritage. IMO, thank goodness both my grandparents have passed because the QUESTIONS. Lastly, it’s entertaining seeing my dad complain about things his “new” older brother does that all of my siblings complain about about my dad😂
Xan I will tell you that adoption from south korean is so common than you think. My husband is one of them from 1986, last year we found his birth mother and no one in the family knew he existed only his bio grandparents because they forced her to send my husband to adoption for they dont want to bring shame in the family for having a teenage daughter getting pregnant out of wedlock. She told the whole family after recieving the call from the adoption agency that her lost son was looking for her, so we have a big family now. But I will tell you that there are atleast 60.000 korean adoptees in Sweden and they may be related to you, never knows.
I found 4 of my half brothers that i didnt know existed that were apparently looking for me all my life when i did ancestry dna. I am forever grateful.
For Zeta - almost all Scottish people have Irish and Scandinavian DNA. Western Scotland was part of the Irish Kingdom of Dalriada, which eventually took over most of what’s now Scotland, South East Scotland was part of the Danelaw, and the North of Scotland was occupied by the Norse - the Northern Isles were a Norwegian Yarldom until the end of the 15th century. So Irish & Scandinavian DNA aren’t a surprise in someone with Scottish ancestry.
Wow I loved this, especially that pleasant surprise for Hameda! And what a crazy revelation for Xander. I hope everyone gets the feeling of closure they do and embrace the parts of themselves they didn't know were in their blood.
I'm Norwegian, and didn't expect to see another Norwegian in this vid. Hope she gets to meet her bio family, because it's obvious that she wants to find out more about her origins. Best of luck to her.
@@tardwrangler ?? She’s culturally, linguistically Norwegian. The topic of DNA doesn’t erase her life experiences, it just showcases her ancestors lives and origin. She’s exactly what she feels like, most likely Norwegian and South Korean.
Always wondering why Finnish is always popping out unexpectedly. Perhaps because long time ago Finns have ancestors from Asia that added to their admixture and now we share some of our genes with them (some of us).
Bro these dna companies are just dumb. That finnish percentage is most probably n-ydna which can be up to 100 percent in siberian turks uralic people and all of the native americans. Like finnish people have a combination of ydna. Theres nothing called “finnish” in dna
@@blackcoffeebeans6100 we still carry those eastern genes tho. Most Finns (61%) have the paternal haplogroup n1c. It's the western extent of haplogroup N, which is found in Asia especially among Uralic speakers of northern Siberia. Haplogroup N1 reaches a maximum frequency of approximately 95% in the Nenets and Nganassans, two Uralic tribes of central-northern Siberia, and 90% among the Yakuts.
@Snowstorm Blond hair doesn't make them not have Asian looking features, I've seen many Finns with blond hair and light eyes who have features that to me seem clearly Asian influenced, like slanted eyes and high cheekbones, Finns definitely have Asian mix in them, Swedes and Norwegians also have it (like A-ha vocalist, to me has clearly Asian "features" in him), but it is a smaller proportion if compared to Finland, and Danes with Asian traits are rarer, and the rarest among "Nordics".
@@israeln.j5955There are plenty of German, Dutch, English, Irish, Polish, Russian, Baltic, etc. who also have small, slanted eyes and high cheekbones. That doesn't mean asian influence but "borealization", common physical traits in all northern and eastern Europeans, adaptation to cold climate.
People really don't understand that anything less than 25% probably is beyond the scope of your grandparents. The "cousin" in Norway probably shared a 4x great-grandparent in Korea, so the family lost touch with that branch long before she was adopted. The dramatics for the video just come across as a serious misunderstanding of maths.
Many of you have never heard of colonization and that's where problems comes in ! You need to learn HISTORY !!! But history is not learn from the phone, but from books !!! So, whoever whant's to learn history and understand the problems of this story, should go to the city library, and enter the archive. Old and real data can be found in old books !! Also, there are the most accurate history facts in the Bible, where God explain to this stupied people, how He created and it what way He created the world. It is mentioned the most in the Old Testament !!! Between the rest in the empire before the Babylonian, Babylonian Empire, Roman Empire ect.
There's a slight difference between the genomes of eastern and western Finns, with eastern Finns sharing more genes with Asian, especially Siberian populations. Finnish is also one of the Uralian languages and some of the other languages belonging in the same family are spoken in Northern Asia, so there's that too.
My Dad's haplogroup shows to have come from North Asia. Probably Siberian. I have both Western Finn and Eastern Finn background. Including being of Saami heritage (native tribe) found in Finland, Sweden, and Norway. My niece who is considered almost 100% Finn, actually shows she does have Asian roots via MyHeritage discovery. Her grandmother eyes looked Asian. If you notice though a lot of 100% Finn people do look Asian based on what their eyes look like.
@@JR-lh3ti yeah I also have epicanthic folds along with other ladies on my mother's side, and my grandma and mom used to joke about how our ancestors came from Mongolia. I have roots both in Eastern and Western Finland, Karelia, Sweden and lots of Central Europe and Scotland thrown in. Would be cool to see what MyHeritage says about my background, I've only done Family Tree DNA.
@@axusis My Finnish side is from west Finland (Central and North Ostrobothnia) and they could pass for Mansi people in west Siberia. My grandma who is half Norwegian half Finnish had a very eastern facial structure, her eyes, nose, and even hair was more eastern shifted. My Finnish ancestors had very high and pronounced cheekbones, typical eastern eyes, and even some with dark hair. According to my gedmatch I am 2-4% Average Siberian (I’m 1/8 Finnish) , as my dad is 3-6% who is 1/4 Finn. I match Uralic groups in Russia quite well too, I even match dna with the Nganasans.
Finnish genes can be explained with history as Finnish dominant haplogroup N comes from East and somehow there is shared genetics with Koreans/Japanese that regularly appear in Finns' test results. There is some overlap that the laboratory interprets one way or the other.
Sami were the eskimos of Europe……which are basically Asian….Fins and most Nordics eventually mixed for centuries . And apparently some Finnish people traveled to Asia…and mixed there too….for centuries…
Finns are a Finno-Ugric people who originated around the Ural Mountains. Genetically Finns cluster much further east than Scandinavian populations. Northeast Finns are an isolated genetic group that cluster away from other Europeans.
@@cinderellaandstepsisters it’s not a lie it’s true. Finns are Eastern European. They are not Scandinavian Teutonic people. Sure, there are Finns who mixed, as we all are, however the Finnish people came from around the Ural Mountains. The Finnish language is related to Estonian, and Saami. Look at PCA charts, and you will see that they cluster much further east than Swedes, Norwegians, and Danes. Southwest Finns, who are more mixed, cluster the closest of any Finnish group to Northern Europeans. Northeast Finns, and Ingrians are the most east shifted of the Finnish people. They cluster nowhere near Teutonic people. Only racists who crap on about Nordic, and Viking BS deny this.
@@Seahorse20 You sound also like a racist. If we look that way there are many Eastern Swedes that are much closer to Finns than to Norwegians. There are Western Norwegians that are closer to Eastern Scotts than to Finns or Swedes. If you go south towards north in Scandinavia, Asian and FinnoSlavic genes are much common, and if you go north towards south in Scandinavia, Mediterranean/Germanic/Celtic genes are increasing. So there is no "Northern European gene or Swedish gene". You have a prejudice which is as a result of your low knowledge. Noone is pure. Even Danes, Swedes and Norwegians are very mixed with Celts, Germans, Finns, Balts, Mediterraneans and Slavs. To not say about people South from Scandinavia or Mediterranean.
@@dejantodorovski5222 I am anti racist . To speak out against Nordic crap is not racist. What is so special about being Scandinavian, and why do racists in Finland deny their Finno-Ugric roots.?
The Finish is because the Samis of Finland share a common ancestry with East Asians, esp. Northeast Asians. So its probably picking up some similar genetics from that
Wow, that picture of Zeta's grandparents was amazing and it looked unbelievably just like her!!! It made me teary-eyed. What an amazing gift MyHeritage provides ppl.
The Finnish is probably from Siberian tribes. Finnish is actually a Uralic language, not European so at some point it must mean some Siberians settled in Finland and got assimilated by the Europeans around them. They’ve retained their Siberian language and some genetic markers but culturally and physically the became European.
It is not going like that always. The languages and races might be different stories. Specially in Finland's case. Finns are The whitest ppl in The world.
@@blackcoffeebeans6100 they carry ydna N at a high frequency though. N is a Siberian marker. It could be the maternal dna that’s responsible for the white appearance. Like a small tribe of male Siberians were assimilated into the European population and their descendants mated with European females over and over again where the majority of their dna became European except for their y dna.
I'm fully ethnically bengali, both my parents are from Bangladesh and i got 4.1% Finnish, i thought it wasn't accurate until i saw that i shared DNA with some 3rd distant cousins of mine on there whom were white 🤯
Humans have been invading/colonizing for millennia, so most of these aren't surprising. Even someone whose family has resided solely in London since the Mayflower sailed could expect to see French, Germanic, and Scandinavian results. Except. Sohan's Andean/Mesoamerican input. That's utterly bonkers to me, since it is incredibly rare for indigenous Americans to leave the New World for the Old.
@@blackcoffeebeans6100 yes they are Nordic today, but back then, the Finns were originally East Asians. They migrate from Siberia, settled to Finland, and rxpe the people they conquered for ethnic subjugation. And that’s why they are white blonde Nordic today.
@@luigianchondo7241 Ppl tend to get darker not blondier, cuz dark gene is stronger. Blondies are disappearing and the last blondie will be a finn. The researches and studies tell Finland has got percentually most blondies in the world. Also no mongol spots on finnish babies. Nobody knows surely where finns come from. It is still a mystery.
@@blackcoffeebeans6100 everybody knows where Finns come from. Its confirmed its an uralic language. You guys are automosally mostly European with 4-13% east Eurasian ancestry coming from their uralic ancestors. Its thought that finno ugric languages were mostly spread by males since even though finns are mostly european dna vise, %65 of todays finnish males have N1c y dna/paternal haplogroup. N haplogroup separated from O in east asia. N1c sub branch probably originated around east of baikal. Then the finno ugric males who have N1c paternal haplogroup migrated to northern europe and mixed with balto-slavic and Paleo european females and erased balto Slavic and paleo european males. This also explains us that finno ugrics had a very Patriarchal culture and that mostly males spread the finno ugric languages. Fino ugric ancestors males spreading their paternal haplogroups very well also means that they succeded in getting rid of indo european and Paleo european males.
The Finnish were nomads roaming northern Siberia from the west, like the mongols did from the east. They meet in the middle. Nomads travel thousands of miles. Most Koreans I watched taking DNA test had a little Finnish DNA. It becomes obvious when you look on a globe from above and realize that both cultures' boarder Siberia. Finland is the European country closeted to East Asia, maps distort how close both countries are.
@@wkdrhffkqkrauf3150 spachbund not one family. Spachbund means groups of people who live so close together in the past that they influenced each other's languages. But they are not related as altaic language family was debunked a long ass time ago. Finns do have a direct Asian male ancestors though(ydna N1c)
@@teovu5557Dangun Joseon was a confederation of tribes, not a monolithic nation, and there are many Koreans with the N haplogroup among Koreans. The Yellow River Civilization is related to Finland (N), not China (o3), and the Mongols, Turks (xiongnu), Finns, and Hungarians (Huns) are all related to Dangunjoseon. Dangunjoseon was a theocracy, and the Korean Peninsula is home to more than 40,000 dolmens, the most in the world, which were used for rituals. Mongolia, Turkey, and Central Asia have remnants of an ancient religion called Tengri, which means Dangun.
The Chinese/Vietnamese side of her may actually be due to Manchurians who assimilated into the Chinese society. Manchurians have claimed the location of Paek-tu Mountain being ancestral home which is what Koreans have claimed and the last emperor of China does have a last name which was Jin in Mandarin / Kim in Korean.
I am 95% Chinese and I also have that 1.7% Finnish. From what I read and can deduce that it's not exactly Finnish but maybe Siberia. Siberia is huge swath of land from Europe to East Asia so Finnish people also has that DNA from Siberia which makes sense.
Having a stepfamily was never unusual since mortality was higher and people saw marriage as a practical thing, particularly if you already had children, so if for example your wife died in childbirth or your husband from the flu, you would often marry quite soon after. It was difficult for most women to have enough money to raise children on their own and most men needed someone to look after the children and house if not provide additional income.
I'm doing this soon. My granny did hers a few years ago and found out she was Polish. How much I don't know. I'll be using the same dna test as her so should be interesting
Finnish means haplogroup N, which can be traced among Asian and especially north Asian ethnicities. Myheritage is really bad at naming genetic haplogroups
Ethnicity results from DNA need to be taken with a large pinch of salt. The lower the percentage the more unlikely it is to be correct. My Heritage says I have African, Italian and Scandinavian DNA but neither of my parents do (and yes, they're definitely my parents). The real value in these tests are finding matches and working out how you're related and who you're ancestors were. However Ancestry is better for that and they allow you to download your DNA and MyHeritage allow you to upload it, which is what I do. BTW, Hameza's cousin, at 0.3% or around 20cM, is so distant that they might not actually be related at all. They could be 5th cousins which means they share one set of 4th great-grandparents (out of 32 couples).
The tests do get revised as more tests come in though. Before I did AncestryDNA, I knew for a fact I was 25% Lithuanian because my grandpa was 100% Lithuanian. It came back 17%. Over the past 4 years, the test results came back with the 25% I knew it was. It was just because more people from the Baltic countries submitted more DNA to refine the region.
Wish i could afford to take one of those tests, it may clear up who my dad is, one man is German, the other man is English and Swedish. And the information that the man I thought was my Father wasn't my Father was kept from me for many years. It was my Mother that told me; my Father said he never would have told me. So I've been wanting to find out, which one is the real one? Even though they've basically said, but I want concrete proof.
My dad has always been into heritage and figuring out our past. Since doing a dna test he has been going even harder to get all documentation possible about our family migrating to the US from Europe. Both my mom and dad are about 98-99% European. From Scandinavian to British to Irish to German to French to Italian to Greek/Balkan to Russian and everything in between. My dads dna can even be dated back to being related to Neanderthals. Good luck y'all with processing the findings and the secrets it can unlock. We forget that just because the generations we know are from certain areas for generations doesnt always mean that they themselves are full bloodedly from that only area. Even our ancestors have pasts they didnt talk about it which has created a beautiful mess of mixed genes.
The lanaguage is very Asian too. The grammar structure is same as Asian while Norwegian, Swedish, and Icelandic derive from German and have its grammar sentence structure
@@treasurechest2951No it is not. For instance the Japanese language has a completely different Grammar. Nice try! Watch the video " Coding Ambassadors & the Finnish double flip - Education in Finland." Do these ppl look like Asians?" Get educated!
Finns come from the Urals, a mountain range near the Altaic mountains. The Altaic is where Japanese, Korean and some Chinese people come from. I am half Hungarian. We are related to Estonian and Finnish people. I suspect I will pop for some Asian ancestry if and when I take the test, most likely Mongolian or western Chinese.
Linguistically Finnish is the uralic language. The race is a different story. Finns are Nordic ppl. 80% of Finns have blue eyes, blond hair and they are tall.
GET A SECOND OPINION!!! MyHeritage was completely wrong for my husband. Every other DNA test says he is 96% Scottish/Welsh/Irish/English...and only 4% Scandinavian. But MyHeritage claims he is 80% Scandinavian! AncestryDNA seems to work the best, and has the most frequent updates.
I never knew my biological grandfather and it was thanks to this test that I got to know him and his side of the family. Sadly my dad’s half sister passed away and she wanted to know if she had any siblings out there. My dad didn’t know for a long that the dad raising him was his step dad. During those days having a child out of wedlock was huge no no. I’m just amazed how far we’ve come in DNA testing.
Sometimes because MyHeritage has a smaller database, it gets confused and shows central asian as finnish, as finns have some siberian roots. Xander is probably 100% asian.
I think if we knew more about human migration--all of us--this would not be so surprising. For instance, the Finns and Hungarians came to Europe out of Asia, so for East Asians to find some genetic affinity with Finns is not surprising. If the South Korean person had had European DNA, that would have been a story, and yet . . . . The Korean peninsula has been volatile place historically, too, and Europeans have been there living and working since 1950. Afghanistan has had Europeans involved there for a couple of centuries, so it's not too surprising that someone from that region has European ancestry in some small amount, but additionally, most people don't know much past their grandparents and some not that far. People travel. So, always interesting but never truly shocking are these test results.
WE HungARYANS didn't come from Asia we have been living in the Carpathian Basin since the begining of time, when your ancestors were still living on trees☝☝☝☝🇭🇺🇲🇳🇫🇮🇹🇷🇯🇵🐺🤘🐺🤘🐺🤘🐺🤘TURÁN💪💪💪💪💪💪💪
Two years later and the database has grown a lot, I guess. This should mean there's better data with more precise association of regions and ethnicity to DNA. So it would be interesting to review these origin stories (DNA reports) again and compare the data in this video with today's interpretation of the same DNA.
I am 74% of Finnish heritage. I am not surprised at all that Xander would find out about the Finnish heritage. I learned in college geography class 30 years ago, that there was a high probability that the Finnish people actually migrated from Asia (like Mongolia). In fact, my Dad's haplogroup, happens to have originated in North Asia. So If you notice the Finnish eyes and the Asian eyes...there are similarities. If you look at the Mongolian language and the Finnish language, they use a lot of the same letters. I noticed that my last name is used as a first name for boys in a few Asian countries like Japan and in some other south Asian countries. Yeah, not surprised at all with the Finnish connection with Xander. In fact, I would have guessed it.
Finns have not got mongolian eyes. All The Europian countries have got some asian dna. Watch the video "Which country has the most blondies." The answer is Finland. Finns are tall with blond hair, blue eyes, and white complexion.
@@blackcoffeebeans6100 So all if you go back far enough maybe Finnish people and Central Asian/Asian have some DNA connection. That's what they're saying. Not sure why saying that they look different NOW negates that at some point in history they might have had a connection.
@@blackcoffeebeans6100 Finns on average have 9% east eurasian ancestry, which is very much unsual for an European. Finns have one of the highest ancient Siberian dna in Europe, again unsual for an European. Finns do not obiviously have monolids yet they so have pseudo -monolid structure eyes, and their cheekbones are much prominent compared to other Europeans. You are just a western finn who is a Scandinavian wanna be lmao. How sad
@@blackcoffeebeans6100 colour doesn't exactly prove anything. Nenets, who have very Siberian features, have blonde hair and blue eyes. Many samoyeds also have blonde hair. Having blonde hair doesn't prove anything loll
Not exactly. You’re pure DNA can help refine MyHeritage’s results to help other people with low Chinese and Korean percentages discover their inheritance. Even with discovering the obvious, you probably helped someone from Europe or America discover their Asian roots.
I'd love to do this one day. I've always been told my family history is 100% English but I'd love to see what's there. My mum was the only girl with blonde.hair and blue eyes which me and my sister inherited though my hair has turned brown as I got older. The rest of my aunts and 1 uncle was born with brown hair and different coloured eyes. Same with my nan and grandad. It would be interesting to know what else is mixed within our DNA. Xx
I thought I was Turkish/Yemeni But I'm 37% Middle Eastern Split up to 29% Yemen,6% Saudi Arabian,1.2% Omani,0.6% Iraqi & 0.2% Syrian Then I'm 28% West Asian 18% Turkish,5% Cypriot,4% Armenian,1% Georgian and 1% Iranian Then I'm 18% East African 11% Somali,3% Eritrean & 4% Ethiopian 9% Central Asian 9% Afghan 8% South Asian 5% Indian,1% Pakistani & 2% Nepalese
Most south asian (north) have caucasian dna. Sometimes it show Irish or Scotish and sometime it shows Scandinavian. Do you really think British fucked every indian. 😂 It's Aryan genes. Which ancestry sites mistake it for other ancestry. Even that Afghan girl was shock.
Hamdda her DNA is quite similar to any other people from Afghanistan Like a bit of West Asian, South Asian, European & Central Asian. I’m from Afghanistan & I’ve got Baltic & Finnish DNA.
“How does that work?” A perfectly reasonable question tbh. Given the Mongolian ancestry, I assume the Finnish is actually “Paleo-Siberian” that’s only coming up as “Finnish” ‘cause that’s what’s in their database.
@@teovu5557 First of all, about 5% to 10% of Mongols are members of haplogroup N. Around a third of Buryats, a Mongolic group directly north of Mongolia, are also members of haplogroup N. Look it up. But regardless, you are talking about ydna and they are talking about autosomal dna. These things are wholly different and it is absurd to equate them. Ydna can only tell you your direct male ancestor, whereas autosomal dna tests, while less accurate and less precise, cast a much wider net. For instance, I lurk on the 23andme subreddit and have for a while. A few years ago a Scottish kid posted a bizarre result. He was 100% British, a member of Scottish lowland clan, but also a member of ydna Haplogroup A. I don't actually doubt the accuracy of that results. And I don't think it's a coincidence that every time someone finds ydna Haplogroup A in Britain, its always near the Scottish-English border. You may ask: "But why does it show literally no recent African ancestry?" The reason is because it's too far back for the autosomal dna test to pick up. The only recent part of Africa left in him is his ydna haplogroup, barely a rounding error in his genome. This illustrates the inherent problems with equating ydna (or mitochondrial dna) with autosomal dna tests.
3:50 step children in census data isn't rare - it's very common, especially before women were able to legally make their own decisions without a man (father or husband) controlling everything. Finding parents, siblings & other relatives living with family members is frequently found too. Times are different now, but it wasn't that long ago that Women finally got more freedoms. Remember, it was common for females to be betrothed at a very young age/birth in some places & they were considered marriage/baby making age when they were in their early teens (or whenever they started menstruation). Laws restricting marriage to older ages are fairly new compared to the ways of the world pre 20th century. I have relatives who had to go to a different US state to get married because our state had the 18 year old rule & they were 16 - in the 1960s. For most of history, women generally remarried if their husband died & they had children. One of my great great grandmothers married 6 times - she had several children with her first husband, she had my great grandpa with her next husband & she had a son with the next husband & she remarried without having more kids a few more times. Birth control didn't exist, men weren't all gentle or loving & women didn't always have the choice to prevent pregnancy. Women didn't have very many options to support herself & multiple children, so marriage was the best option. I have found similar females who married multiple times in my research where this also happened. I have even found records of widows having to go to a workhouse & their kids were in workhouses too as she couldn't support them alone. Some indentured servants in North America ended up here because one or both parents died when they were young. There's different traditions & customs in every country - some countries didn't allow widows to remarry (even if the female was married to an old man at a few years old) & widows actually lived in widows' housing from their husband's death. Some cultures believed that a widow was bad luck or being near one had other bad omens. The world has come a long way in the last 100 years! It also wasn't very long ago that single mothers (or young mothers) were more likely to be sent away if they became pregnant & they had to give up the child for adoption. Some places had laws promoting secrecy & adoption - some families chose that option for themselves. There's a lot of variables out there that modern DNA tests are unearthing in some families. Sperm donations & IVF throw another wrench in the works.
I don't know how accurate MyHeritageDNA is, but according to MyHeritage, I'm 78.7% from Sub Sahara Africa, 15.4% Irish, Scottish and Welsh, 4.9% Mesoamerican and Andean and 1% West Asian.
Finns speak an asian language and over 60% of finnish people have ydna N1c meaning their male direct anxestors were asian men who migrated to europe thousands of years ago n mixed with the natives to form the finns and saami today. Facts. Pretty cool fact too

White itself is not a particular culture and can be various ethnicities in and of itself and determine what particular cultures based on ethnic identity such as if you are Dutch, German, French, English, Scandinavian, Slavic, Celtic because just white is not a culture or an ethnicity.
@@tardwrangler however there Is a difference between the "African" gene cluster and the European gene cluster northern europeans all have smaller genetic distance to each other than to all other clusters its not the case for africans so in a way europeans are a big family
Whats funny is these people are mixed up and they are mostly one race. Wait till you see someone's DNA who is really biracial. Me and my kids said you have African, European plus 12 different ethnicities or some shit. 😂 I loved the video guys.
Lot of asians can get finnish results and vice versa. This is due to ancient DNA similarities, not a recent ancestor. Finns differ a bit from most of the europeans in that sense.

For Zeta - almost all Scottish people have Irish and Scandinavian DNA. Western Scotland was part of the Irish Kingdom of Dalriada, which eventually took over most of what’s now Scotland, South East Scotland was part of the Danelaw, and the North of Scotland was occupied by the Norse - the Northern Isles were a Norwegian Yarldom until the end of the 15th century. So Irish & Scandinavian DNA aren’t a surprise in someone with Scottish ancestry.

Always wondering why Finnish is always popping out unexpectedly. Perhaps because long time ago Finns have ancestors from Asia that added to their admixture and now we share some of our genes with them (some of us).
It's because Finns and native siberians share a commun hominide.
Finns are belong to the Turan race 🇯🇵🇹🇷🇫🇮🇲🇳🇭🇺🐺🤘🐺🤘🐺🤘💪💪💪💪

Bro these dna companies are just dumb. That finnish percentage is most probably n-ydna which can be up to 100 percent in siberian turks uralic people and all of the native americans. Like finnish people have a combination of ydna. Theres nothing called “finnish” in dna
@@-Blizzard.- there is only Turanid dna and you dont have any that means you are inferior
Finland is a little different in Europe, to say the least. The language is originally from Ural Mountains or Siberia.
The language is different. Otherwise it is not different. It is a very nordic country. Welcome to see.
@@blackcoffeebeans6100 we still carry those eastern genes tho. Most Finns (61%) have the paternal haplogroup n1c. It's the western extent of haplogroup N, which is found in Asia especially among Uralic speakers of northern Siberia. Haplogroup N1 reaches a maximum frequency of approximately 95% in the Nenets and Nganassans, two Uralic tribes of central-northern Siberia, and 90% among the Yakuts.
@snowstorm I could give you a shit shaped like a brownie and you would eat it thinking it’s a brownie
@Snowstorm Blond hair doesn't make them not have Asian looking features, I've seen many Finns with blond hair and light eyes who have features that to me seem clearly Asian influenced, like slanted eyes and high cheekbones, Finns definitely have Asian mix in them, Swedes and Norwegians also have it (like A-ha vocalist, to me has clearly Asian "features" in him), but it is a smaller proportion if compared to Finland, and Danes with Asian traits are rarer, and the rarest among "Nordics".
@@israeln.j5955There are plenty of German, Dutch, English, Irish, Polish, Russian, Baltic, etc. who also have small, slanted eyes and high cheekbones. That doesn't mean asian influence but "borealization", common physical traits in all northern and eastern Europeans, adaptation to cold climate.
People really don't understand that anything less than 25% probably is beyond the scope of your grandparents. The "cousin" in Norway probably shared a 4x great-grandparent in Korea, so the family lost touch with that branch long before she was adopted. The dramatics for the video just come across as a serious misunderstanding of maths.
Many of you have never heard of colonization and that's where problems comes in !
You need to learn HISTORY !!! But history is not learn from the phone, but from books !!!
So, whoever whant's to learn history and understand the problems of this story, should go to the city library, and enter the archive.

Also, there are the most accurate history facts in the Bible, where God explain to this stupied people, how He created and it what way He created the world. It is mentioned the most in the Old Testament !!!
Between the rest in the empire before the Babylonian, Babylonian Empire, Roman Empire ect.
There's a slight difference between the genomes of eastern and western Finns, with eastern Finns sharing more genes with Asian, especially Siberian populations. Finnish is also one of the Uralian languages and some of the other languages belonging in the same family are spoken in Northern Asia, so there's that too.
My Dad's haplogroup shows to have come from North Asia. Probably Siberian. I have both Western Finn and Eastern Finn background. Including being of Saami heritage (native tribe) found in Finland, Sweden, and Norway. My niece who is considered almost 100% Finn, actually shows she does have Asian roots via MyHeritage discovery. Her grandmother eyes looked Asian. If you notice though a lot of 100% Finn people do look Asian based on what their eyes look like.
@@JR-lh3ti yeah I also have epicanthic folds along with other ladies on my mother's side, and my grandma and mom used to joke about how our ancestors came from Mongolia. I have roots both in Eastern and Western Finland, Karelia, Sweden and lots of Central Europe and Scotland thrown in. Would be cool to see what MyHeritage says about my background, I've only done Family Tree DNA.
@@axusis My Finnish side is from west Finland (Central and North Ostrobothnia) and they could pass for Mansi people in west Siberia. My grandma who is half Norwegian half Finnish had a very eastern facial structure, her eyes, nose, and even hair was more eastern shifted. My Finnish ancestors had very high and pronounced cheekbones, typical eastern eyes, and even some with dark hair. According to my gedmatch I am 2-4% Average Siberian (I’m 1/8 Finnish) , as my dad is 3-6% who is 1/4 Finn. I match Uralic groups in Russia quite well too, I even match dna with the Nganasans.
The language and the race are two different matters.
@Snowstorm ? inte jättevanligt men finns definitivt
Finnish genes can be explained with history as Finnish dominant haplogroup N comes from East and somehow there is shared genetics with Koreans/Japanese that regularly appear in Finns' test results. There is some overlap that the laboratory interprets one way or the other.
Sami were the eskimos of Europe……which are basically Asian….Fins and most Nordics eventually mixed for centuries .
And apparently some Finnish people traveled to Asia…and mixed there too….for centuries…
Finns are a Finno-Ugric people who originated around the Ural Mountains. Genetically Finns cluster much further east than Scandinavian populations. Northeast Finns are an isolated genetic group that cluster away from other Europeans.
Another lie again. Not true.
@@cinderellaandstepsisters it’s not a lie it’s true.
Finns are Eastern European. They are not Scandinavian Teutonic people. Sure, there are Finns who mixed, as we all are, however the Finnish people came from around the Ural Mountains. The Finnish language is related to Estonian, and Saami.
Look at PCA charts, and you will see that they cluster much further east than Swedes, Norwegians, and Danes.
Southwest Finns, who are more mixed, cluster the closest of any Finnish group to Northern Europeans. Northeast Finns, and Ingrians are the most east shifted of the Finnish people. They cluster nowhere near Teutonic people.
Only racists who crap on about Nordic, and Viking BS deny this.
@@cinderellaandstepsisters Miten sitte selität sen et monet suomalaiset jotka on tehny tän testin saa pari prosenttia keskiaasialaista tai inuiittia
@@Seahorse20 You sound also like a racist. If we look that way there are many Eastern Swedes that are much closer to Finns than to Norwegians. There are Western Norwegians that are closer to Eastern Scotts than to Finns or Swedes. If you go south towards north in Scandinavia, Asian and FinnoSlavic genes are much common, and if you go north towards south in Scandinavia, Mediterranean/Germanic/Celtic genes are increasing. So there is no "Northern European gene or Swedish gene". You have a prejudice which is as a result of your low knowledge. Noone is pure. Even Danes, Swedes and Norwegians are very mixed with Celts, Germans, Finns, Balts, Mediterraneans and Slavs. To not say about people South from Scandinavia or Mediterranean.

The Finish is because the Samis of Finland share a common ancestry with East Asians, esp. Northeast Asians. So its probably picking up some similar genetics from that
Yup, just like Native Americans
And if we go further it’ll go back to Southern China,then west Asia then east Africa then South Africa

XANDER, CAUSE THE CHAOS
The Finnish is probably from Siberian tribes. Finnish is actually a Uralic language, not European so at some point it must mean some Siberians settled in Finland and got assimilated by the Europeans around them. They’ve retained their Siberian language and some genetic markers but culturally and physically the became European.
It is not going like that always. The languages and races might be different stories. Specially in Finland's case. Finns are The whitest ppl in The world.
@@blackcoffeebeans6100 they carry ydna N at a high frequency though. N is a Siberian marker. It could be the maternal dna that’s responsible for the white appearance. Like a small tribe of male Siberians were assimilated into the European population and their descendants mated with European females over and over again where the majority of their dna became European except for their y dna.
@@MarkMiller304 yeah, gotta remember haplogroups arent a good measurement of the actual dna

@@blackcoffeebeans6100Address triangulated. Expect visitors.
@@blackcoffeebeans6100 everybody knows where Finns come from. Its confirmed its an uralic language. You guys are automosally mostly European with 4-13% east Eurasian ancestry coming from their uralic ancestors. Its thought that finno ugric languages were mostly spread by males since even though finns are mostly european dna vise, %65 of todays finnish males have N1c y dna/paternal haplogroup. N haplogroup separated from O in east asia. N1c sub branch probably originated around east of baikal. Then the finno ugric males who have N1c paternal haplogroup migrated to northern europe and mixed with balto-slavic and Paleo european females and erased balto Slavic and paleo european males. This also explains us that finno ugrics had a very Patriarchal culture and that mostly males spread the finno ugric languages. Fino ugric ancestors males spreading their paternal haplogroups very well also means that they succeded in getting rid of indo european and Paleo european males.
The Finnish were nomads roaming northern Siberia from the west, like the mongols did from the east. They meet in the middle. Nomads travel thousands of miles. Most Koreans I watched taking DNA test had a little Finnish DNA. It becomes obvious when you look on a globe from above and realize that both cultures' boarder Siberia. Finland is the European country closeted to East Asia, maps distort how close both countries are.

The Chinese/Vietnamese side of her may actually be due to Manchurians who assimilated into the Chinese society. Manchurians have claimed the location of Paek-tu Mountain being ancestral home which is what Koreans have claimed and the last emperor of China does have a last name which was Jin in Mandarin / Kim in Korean.
I'm growing impatient waiting for my own results from my myHeritage test, but watching these types of videos quenches the thirst a little haha
I am 95% Chinese and I also have that 1.7% Finnish.
From what I read and can deduce that it's not exactly Finnish but maybe Siberia.
Siberia is huge swath of land from Europe to East Asia so Finnish people also has that DNA from Siberia which makes sense.
Having a stepfamily was never unusual since mortality was higher and people saw marriage as a practical thing, particularly if you already had children, so if for example your wife died in childbirth or your husband from the flu, you would often marry quite soon after. It was difficult for most women to have enough money to raise children on their own and most men needed someone to look after the children and house if not provide additional income.
this was so enlightening. Now I want to do a DNA test!!!!!
I'm doing this soon. My granny did hers a few years ago and found out she was Polish. How much I don't know. I'll be using the same dna test as her so should be interesting
The Korean guy is not Finnish, the truth is, the Finnish people have a small amount of asian DNA. So so e of his ancestors moved I to Finland.
4% Finn? As a half Finn, MY PEOPLE! SUOMI!
Finnish means haplogroup N, which can be traced among Asian and especially north Asian ethnicities. Myheritage is really bad at naming genetic haplogroups
Ethnicity results from DNA need to be taken with a large pinch of salt. The lower the percentage the more unlikely it is to be correct. My Heritage says I have African, Italian and Scandinavian DNA but neither of my parents do (and yes, they're definitely my parents).
The real value in these tests are finding matches and working out how you're related and who you're ancestors were. However Ancestry is better for that and they allow you to download your DNA and MyHeritage allow you to upload it, which is what I do. BTW, Hameza's cousin, at 0.3% or around 20cM, is so distant that they might not actually be related at all. They could be 5th cousins which means they share one set of 4th great-grandparents (out of 32 couples).
The tests do get revised as more tests come in though. Before I did AncestryDNA, I knew for a fact I was 25% Lithuanian because my grandpa was 100% Lithuanian. It came back 17%. Over the past 4 years, the test results came back with the 25% I knew it was. It was just because more people from the Baltic countries submitted more DNA to refine the region.
@@cmndrkool321 That's true but they're still pretty inaccurate and even if they were it wouldn't be particularly helpful
This also depends on what you believe about culture. Some anthropologists believe that everyone originated from the African continent, others don't.

And the information that the man I thought was my Father wasn't my Father was kept from me for many years. It was my Mother that told me; my Father said he never would have told me. So I've been wanting to find out, which one is the real one? Even though they've basically said, but I want concrete proof.
Damn what a life you're living
My dad has always been into heritage and figuring out our past. Since doing a dna test he has been going even harder to get all documentation possible about our family migrating to the US from Europe. Both my mom and dad are about 98-99% European. From Scandinavian to British to Irish to German to French to Italian to Greek/Balkan to Russian and everything in between. My dads dna can even be dated back to being related to Neanderthals. Good luck y'all with processing the findings and the secrets it can unlock. We forget that just because the generations we know are from certain areas for generations doesnt always mean that they themselves are full bloodedly from that only area. Even our ancestors have pasts they didnt talk about it which has created a beautiful mess of mixed genes.

hahaha crazy hey.
I think if we knew more about human migration--all of us--this would not be so surprising. For instance, the Finns and Hungarians came to Europe out of Asia, so for East Asians to find some genetic affinity with Finns is not surprising. If the South Korean person had had European DNA, that would have been a story, and yet . . . . The Korean peninsula has been volatile place historically, too, and Europeans have been there living and working since 1950. Afghanistan has had Europeans involved there for a couple of centuries, so it's not too surprising that someone from that region has European ancestry in some small amount, but additionally, most people don't know much past their grandparents and some not that far. People travel. So, always interesting but never truly shocking are these test results.

I am 74% of Finnish heritage. I am not surprised at all that Xander would find out about the Finnish heritage. I learned in college geography class 30 years ago, that there was a high probability that the Finnish people actually migrated from Asia (like Mongolia). In fact, my Dad's haplogroup, happens to have originated in North Asia. So If you notice the Finnish eyes and the Asian eyes...there are similarities. If you look at the Mongolian language and the Finnish language, they use a lot of the same letters. I noticed that my last name is used as a first name for boys in a few Asian countries like Japan and in some other south Asian countries. Yeah, not surprised at all with the Finnish connection with Xander. In fact, I would have guessed it.

Mongolian? Mongols are ydna c3 and c2 Finns are ydna N1c.....they are related to a different Siberian Asian group not mongolians. Lol
@@teovu5557 First of all, about 5% to 10% of Mongols are members of haplogroup N. Around a third of Buryats, a Mongolic group directly north of Mongolia, are also members of haplogroup N. Look it up.
But regardless, you are talking about ydna and they are talking about autosomal dna. These things are wholly different and it is absurd to equate them. Ydna can only tell you your direct male ancestor, whereas autosomal dna tests, while less accurate and less precise, cast a much wider net. For instance, I lurk on the 23andme subreddit and have for a while. A few years ago a Scottish kid posted a bizarre result. He was 100% British, a member of Scottish lowland clan, but also a member of ydna Haplogroup A. I don't actually doubt the accuracy of that results. And I don't think it's a coincidence that every time someone finds ydna Haplogroup A in Britain, its always near the Scottish-English border. You may ask: "But why does it show literally no recent African ancestry?" The reason is because it's too far back for the autosomal dna test to pick up. The only recent part of Africa left in him is his ydna haplogroup, barely a rounding error in his genome. This illustrates the inherent problems with equating ydna (or mitochondrial dna) with autosomal dna tests.

3:50 step children in census data isn't rare - it's very common, especially before women were able to legally make their own decisions without a man (father or husband) controlling everything. Finding parents, siblings & other relatives living with family members is frequently found too. Times are different now, but it wasn't that long ago that Women finally got more freedoms. Remember, it was common for females to be betrothed at a very young age/birth in some places & they were considered marriage/baby making age when they were in their early teens (or whenever they started menstruation). Laws restricting marriage to older ages are fairly new compared to the ways of the world pre 20th century. I have relatives who had to go to a different US state to get married because our state had the 18 year old rule & they were 16 - in the 1960s. For most of history, women generally remarried if their husband died & they had children. One of my great great grandmothers married 6 times - she had several children with her first husband, she had my great grandpa with her next husband & she had a son with the next husband & she remarried without having more kids a few more times. Birth control didn't exist, men weren't all gentle or loving & women didn't always have the choice to prevent pregnancy. Women didn't have very many options to support herself & multiple children, so marriage was the best option. I have found similar females who married multiple times in my research where this also happened. I have even found records of widows having to go to a workhouse & their kids were in workhouses too as she couldn't support them alone. Some indentured servants in North America ended up here because one or both parents died when they were young. There's different traditions & customs in every country - some countries didn't allow widows to remarry (even if the female was married to an old man at a few years old) & widows actually lived in widows' housing from their husband's death. Some cultures believed that a widow was bad luck or being near one had other bad omens. The world has come a long way in the last 100 years!
It also wasn't very long ago that single mothers (or young mothers) were more likely to be sent away if they became pregnant & they had to give up the child for adoption. Some places had laws promoting secrecy & adoption - some families chose that option for themselves. There's a lot of variables out there that modern DNA tests are unearthing in some families. Sperm donations & IVF throw another wrench in the works.
I might have cried watching this 😅😅😅
I knew I loved Zeta for a reason… us Welsh always have a connection haha 🏴
Today people everything is crisis because they make everything to crisis 😢 im just thankful to God that im here Aamen ✝️🙏
I don't know how accurate MyHeritageDNA is, but according to MyHeritage, I'm 78.7% from Sub Sahara Africa, 15.4% Irish, Scottish and Welsh, 4.9% Mesoamerican and Andean and 1% West Asian.
Many sub-saharans have dna from UK. I have see many got the same result
Europe, West and south asia are indo european dna
The lady who got adopted....that's so sad😭
Finns speak an asian language and over 60% of finnish people have ydna N1c meaning their male direct anxestors were asian men who migrated to europe thousands of years ago n mixed with the natives to form the finns and saami today.
Facts. Pretty cool fact too
They are not mixed with Samis. Sami ppl are a small group in Finland. The biggest number of Sami ppl appear in Norway. The second is Sweden and the third is Finland. The culture of Sami ppl is completely different. They are different races.
@@butterflies655 Both Finns ands saami share the same Ydna N1c(same male ancestors) and BOTH speak languages within the Finno-Ugric languages of the Finnic branch.
And you have the balls to say they are not mixed or related. lol
@@teovu5557 Watch what the Finns look like. Watch the video "Which country has the most blondies?"
The answer is Finland.
Finland has got 90% ppl with blue eyes and 80% blond or light brown hair.
By the way all European ppl speak Asian languages. The roots of the Indo-European family group languages are in Sanskrit in India. Educate yourself.
@@butterflies655both look native
@@butterflies655 taking about DNA genetics not how they look dummy.
Example
Many eastern Europeans have Mongolian genghis Khan ydna DNA but that don't look Asian at all.
So easy to Google finnic Siberian DNA rather than arguing on TH-cam.
Xander " Torilla Tavataan" :D
White itself is not a particular culture and can be various ethnicities in and of itself and determine what particular cultures based on ethnic identity such as if you are Dutch, German, French, English, Scandinavian, Slavic, Celtic because just white is not a culture or an ethnicity.
That's like saying there isn't any Asian, African, or Arabian culture. It is, but it's a group of cultures.
@@tardwrangler however there Is a difference between the "African" gene cluster and the European gene cluster
northern europeans all have smaller genetic distance to each other than to all other clusters
its not the case for africans
so in a way europeans are a big family
I love Xander
Whats funny is these people are mixed up and they are mostly one race. Wait till you see someone's DNA who is really biracial. Me and my kids said you have African, European plus 12 different ethnicities or some shit. 😂 I loved the video guys.
don't be woke. #trustthebiology
Lot of asians can get finnish results and vice versa. This is due to ancient DNA similarities, not a recent ancestor. Finns differ a bit from most of the europeans in that sense.
