Since I haven't actually done a test kit myself, but I've done all four grandparents... I'll have to use their data all together. PGM: Population Amerindian 14.82 Arabian 1.13 Armenian 1.55 Basque 4.01 Central_African - Central_Euro 6.15 East_African 3.97 East_Asian -...

I've tried to select some people a few generations back in my family, and people who are not as admixed (as far as I know) — there's some, but it would be interesting to see what people think these are. They've been numbered underneath each picture for easier reference. http://imgur.com/a/1DYlA

That's a very nice collection. I'm very fond of them because of that whole silly 'cultural identity' thing we've talked about in another thread! :) __________________________ Julie Fowlis is a Scots Gaelic singer from Uist, and she's wonderful. It's important to her to help keep Gàidhlig...

A traditional Scottish song from the 19th century entitled "Erin-go-Bragh" tells the story of a Highland Scot who is mistaken for an Irishman. The first two verses[10] are: My name's Duncan Campbell from the shire of Argyll I've travelled this country for many's the mileI've travelled through...

That location looks amazing.

Well, when people got here they started to mix 'AT LEAST' with other Europeans — some of whom had already been mixed with Native or African if they had been here for a while. Curiously, since you are Italian [hint hint]... can you place this man to some Italian populations?

It has been a while since I came on here, but here is the 23andme composition of the person who was given Q1 (my father's father's brother, same parents, since my grandfather is dead), so I extrapolate my YDNA from that as Q1 Seeing this person's composition, which theory do you think most...

Hello friendly people, What do you all think when you hear people talking about 'reconnecting with their roots' or heritage. For example, an American exploring and 'reconnecting' to his heritage as a person of Scottish descent (in an authentic and respectful way) even if his Scottish ancestors...

"Laboratorium Pieśni is a group of female singers from Poland. Using traditional, polyphonic singing they perform songs from all over the world, mainly: Ukraine, Balkans, Poland, Belarus, Georgia, Scandinavia and many other places." Na morzu, na błękitnym morzu Tam pływały stada białych...

I don't think people can really tell by looking.. See my 'guess the ethnicity' thread [don't look at the last post if you want to make a guess first] I'd have no idea what to classify you as other than 'white', which really isn't that helpful.

Interesting, interesting. The SSA is about 7%. There's some other things you've missed. :grin:

Tried to remove it, got an error that wouldn't allow it... Figured that since Barbados has no indigenous, you'd have to guess the ethnicity of my ancestors who came over based on how I look alone. I suppose the history of Barbados might give clues, but that just happens to be where I was born...

Can't edit so I'll add: My male line back a couple generations: http://i.imgur.com/rg6kGnk.jpg I have a 'characteristic tree' that I made of all the photos that I have going as far back as I have, I'll post it later - I don't want it to influence the responses that much just yet!

Should be pretty difficult. Curious to see what people might suggest. Good luck! http://imgur.com/a/2p3B9

Thanks, I've got it sorted. Will keep it in mind for the next one! This thread could actually be deleted if any mods see this.
