I've been fat all my life, even the earliest pictures of me show that! Growing up I weighed 1st (14lbs/8.3kg) for each year of my life up to my late teens, topping out at 19st (266lbs/120kg) before going up another 2st (28lbs/13kg) in my 40's and 50's. My folks weren't overtly religious by any...

All these results are really good, but I have absolutely no idea how to 'translate' them wrt what is shows of my ancestry, if anything. So, looking at my results in the post above - how should I read how they describe or define 'me'?

Super interesting thread this - Many thanks for your work Maciamo! My results... Distance to: Richard 6.40219494 Iron_Age_Britons_(n=4) 6.47072639 Early_Bronze_Age_Swabia_(n=24) 7.53434138 Bell_Beaker_Gaul_(n=13) 8.05877162 Bronze_Age_Germany_(n=26) 8.39280049 Roman_Britain_(n=8)...

Thanks for this reply Salento. I think this more of my misunderstanding of what MTA are providing - of course, my mother's brother is still my relative even if he does have a different haplogroup from his father. And the autosomal data, by definition, goes beyond the simple male line Y-DNA...

Why are all (but one) my DNA samples and Deep Dive results given as being R1b1a.... but I'm a confirmed E1b1b1a1b1a? The only example that MTA can provide that actually matches is "Late Medieval Cancelleria Basilica" I would have expected there to have been no matches if the haplogroups don't...

Hi all, I am English and can trace my male line back to my 8th great-grandfather and his marriage in 1673 (no records prior to this date) in Derbyshire, England. My surname is post-Norman conquest patronymic and Germanic in origin and first appears (Old French) in the Domesday Book with the...

I have a copy of my raw y-DNA file from LivingDNA and have been comparing the positively identified markers in that file against the E1b1b phylogenetic tree, I have P147 > P177 > M215 > M78 > L542 then seem to finish with CTS5856 after which no other markers on the tree appear in my y-DNA file...

Hello all, I did, some time ago, a DNA test with LivingDNA with the original results showing I am haplogroup E-V13, 88% English and 12% 'european'. Shortly afterwards, I uploaded the same DNA to MyTrueAncestry and that came back with primarily Danish/North German ancestry so Celt/Frank - all...

Hi, my wife's haplogroup is J1b1a1a and her autosomal reading gives her 93% Britain and Ireland ancestry, born in England and can trace her family back to pre-1400. However, there are also 2.5% Asia (Central) and 1.3% Asia (South) elements. Just curious as to what this could represent - the...

A general question about the actual DNA results provided and their associated interpretations... ...from the experience and knowledge of those 'who know' about such things, can it be summarised that the LivingDNA results themselves are accurate but the interpretations may be a little off...

I've had my LivingDNA results back and am happy to share them so you can see the style of what you get back. If you look on the V10 in UK... thread in this forum, Maciamo has kindly included a link to my results in his post that can be found here. We got our results back about 3 months after...

Ahhh, well there you have it! Many thanks for your update Maciamo, much appreciated, told you I was a total noob. But in my defence, I did feel that the atDNA results did not tie in with what I was apparently reading. What you say certainly sits a lot better with what we know of my Y-DNA line...

I’ve just had my results back from LivingDNA and am both somewhat surprised and confused! Obviously so when you realize how little I know of genetics – confused noob is an understatement. So, here I am looking for some help, guidance and explanation of the results that I have had back. I...
