keeps prompting me to use when I search and I must admit temptation… but no… it’s like , sure it’d be fun and informative, but is the tradeoff (losing ownership of your DNA and your data) really worth it?

Hi. I'm Adam. I've a massive interest in and hope find a few answers I've been after for a few years.

There is a story on the Irish side of my family that my Grandad had a child while in the military in Germany, around 1958.

I've a photo of the would be mother and her first name, and know they lived in Berlin.

Ive done DNA on and uploaded everywhere else I can to no avail.

Would anyone else have any other suggestions? Thanks!

Okay so...wow, weird day. I went from installing Google Reporting API on one of the Debian machines to trying to find a good place to get PGX testing...and discovered a half sister and a first cousin I didn't know existed. WHAT?!!? Thank you ?

is like the very worst social network because so many of your relatives are people you’d never choose to network with socially. Man, just eyeballing some people makes me how runs in my blood.

results as a random New Brunswicker:

56% British and Irish (strong showing from County Cork and western Ireland, as expected; Manchester and Merseyside come up strong too).

The side breaks down as follows:
10.9% French (mostly Occitanie region by the Mediterranean);
Spanish and Portuguese 16.6%
Italian 2.5%
Broadly Southern European 2.2%
"Indigenous American" 1%

And then there's also 15.2% "Broadly Northwestern European."

1/2

Me (having never known my father): I hope my ancestry test throws up something interesting.

Ancestry test: Hey fam, you a boring Brit!

:blobcatcry2:

Still, the dose of Italian comes as a suprise. I was expecting Spanish.

Some from the linked above💡💡💡

“Importantly, in my view, the term ‘genetically similar to’ also helps to avoid the assumption of homogeneity within labels; ‘similar to’ does not imply ‘same as’. Similarity-based sample descriptors also move us some way to acknowledging the continuous nature of across in our sample descriptions. I am more genetically similar to some samples than I am to others, but that does not imply that there are natural groupings. Nor do similarity-based labels imply how I, as an individual, might choose to identify or what distribution of environments I might experience. For example, a person may be genetically similar to 1000 samples labeled Southern Asian, yet in itself this similarity does not identify them as Southern Asian, whereas stating that a person has ‘Southern Asian ’ comes much closer to making that linkage in people’s minds.
Working out the of individuals and of groups of people from around the world is a fascinating area of research, but it should not be the day job of the majority of researchers in the field of , who instead need accurate sample descriptors of current day that aid clear communication.”

Anyone ever used .com or to learn more about their family heritage and DNA? My parents are from Ghana, and I also know that my great-grandfather was Chinese. I’d like to learn more about that because that doesn’t seem typical at all, so fingers crossed.🤞🏾

I am also concerned about the potential misuse of genetic information. This is why I refuse to submit to and the like but, in this case, I think
the potential benefits are worth the risk.

@ewanbirney would you say that services like are merely perpetuating this perspective? After all, they have to draw lines somewhere to define what's a 'French' marker, for example. They definitely profit off of that horrible history, and I reckon they could be used to actually combat those same views, what do you think?
