My top five foods here perfectly illustrate my northwestern European ancestry, does anyone else here find the DNA Diet to be an accurate reflection of what your ancestors would have eaten?

Guess the ethnicity of my grandfathers, born three months apart in the early Great Depression, one in Chicago, another in central Rhode Island.

I know that there are a lot of knowledgeable people of Albanian ethnic origin here, so here goes. My Nana's paternal grandparents (my great-great-grandparents) were from Palazzo Adriano in Sicily, which was formerly (i.e., when they were there in the late 1800s-early 1900s) Albanian speaking of...

This guy just took an Ancestry DNA test and the largest ethnicity in his DNA checks in with 42%! From the following choices (which are all ethnicities detected in his report), pick out which one was the 42%! Is it Irish/Scottish (Gaelic?); England, Wales, and Northwestern Europe; France; or...

Even before I found out my father's biological father was of German descent, my maternal grandmother once said I looked German. My aunt-well, my uncle's ex wife, but as she is mother to three of my cousins I still consider her my aunt-first asked how German I was after I told her I had taken...

Just want to give you guys a heads up that the admins at the Facebook page (and group, to which I belong) devoted to R1a-M458 are badmouthing Maciamo for classifying R1a-M458 as Germano-Slavic; both of them are Polish, which explains the anti-German sentiment (one of them goes as far as to say...

These two individuals are related. Not father daughter or brother sister but still related. They have the same mtDNA haplogroup and are predominantly of European descent.

Guess the ethnicity of this American man, whom I know. Like many younger Americans, he's made up of several different ethnicities but most of them are from the same general area, and his maternal grandfather was 100% of one European ethnicity.

I have noticed that some of the posters here have their ancestors' Y-DNA haplogroups listed, so I will give it a go. I know one of my great-great-grandfathers' haplogroups, from a cousin on 23andMe. Great-great-grandfather Gulley was R-L51, which is in the R1b tree; he was my paternal...

23andMe has updated their Y-Chromosome haplogroup assignments. I went from R M-417 (R1a1a1) to R YP-445 (R1a1a1b1a1b1d), which is way downstream. If you have tested with 23andMe and have not undergone further Y-Chromosome sequencing, you can go back to your 23andMe reports and find your...

Helix says they do gene sequencing rather than genotyping, so I wasn't surprised to get slightly different results than with 23andMe. The haplogroups were the same; J1C2 for mitochondria and R-CTS11962 for Y chromosome-it's a descendant of my 23andMe clade of R-M417 and an ancestor of my Morley...

Hello, while browsing the thread for another mtdna haplogroup, I was directed to a site where I explored that haplogroup as well as my own, J1c2, and I noticed there were a lot of J1c2 from Denmark. As my maternal line comes from an Irish county whose major city (Waterford) was founded by the...

Hola, R1b, the Morley Subclade Predictor gave me R1a-L1029 as my most likely clade, but browsing the others I found one weird thread-while the other suggested haplogroups and clades were upstream of L1029, one wasn't-R1b1a2a1a2b3b-R1b S47. Apparently I test positive for the S47 mutation. So am...

I just ran my raw data from 23andme through the Morley Subclade Predictor and got as my most likely clade R1a-L1029. 23andme assigned me R-M417, and this is downstream from that grouping. My paternal line comes from my father's biological father, Frederick P. Sellers, Jr., who was of German...

This individual is a white man. What could be his ethnicity other than the fact he is white.
