Erratum: Castilla La Mancha = Spanish Castilla La Mancha

 

[Ygorcs]

Very interesting results. You seem to have a bit more European ancestry than the average Brazilian whites, who have ~80% to ~90% European ancestry, but apart from that you seem to have the "classical" Brazilian mix, which varies in proportion across the "races": European + African + Amerindian. It's interesting, though, that you have much more African than Native American ancestry, whereas many other Brazilian whites I have seen carry about as much Native American ancestry as African one.

By the way, some of the results give you closer sharing with Spanish people from Extremadura and Andalucia, but MDLP K16 Mosern Oracle Results give you closer relationship to the Portuguese. I wonder if that's just the result of other calculators lacking better coverage of Portuguese people's DNA in their database. Or do you actually have a more recent Spanish ancestry? Many people, even Brazilians themselves, are aware of the large Italian and Portuguese immigration to Brazil, and even about the Syrian-Lebanese, German and Japanese diasporas, but they do not know that Spanish immigrants were the 3rd largest diaspora in Brazil during the height of the European immigration to the country around 1860-1940. There are probably more than 15 million (partial) descendants of Spanish immigrants in Brazil.

Hello Ygorcs

Thanks for the reply. You're kind.

My paternal ancestors were ancient Portuguese who arrived in the region of Ouro Preto, State of Minas Gerais, Brazil, around 1750. My maternal ancestors are a mixture of Portuguese and Spanish that arrived in the same region in the early 20th century (1908).

My mother has 75% of Portuguese ancestry (family originating from Aveiro) and 25% of Spanish ancestry (family originating from Andalucia).

My autosomal results in MyHeritage DNA are the follows: Iberian - 64.3%, North and Western European - 16.8%, Italian - 9.6%, North African - 5%, Nigerian - 4.3%.

The same results in Family Tree DNA - FTDNA are the follows: Iberia - 67%, West and Central Europe - 20%, Middle Eastern (North Africa) - 5%, African (West Africa) - 3%, Trace Results - 5% (< 2% Southeast Europe, <2% Sephardic, <2% South Central Africa).

The autosomal tests performed on DNA.LAND and GenePlaza maintain, basically, the same proportions of European and African ancestry (including in African Ancestry the North Africa) of MyHeritage and FTDNA companies. The divergences are even greater at the level of detail of European and African populations from which the general sum by continent is reached. In terms of Europe, the numbers say that I am more an Iberian-Spanish than an Iberian-Portuguese and, in Subsaharan Africa, the Yoruba and Esan populations always predominate. Amerindian percentages are always small.

Fraternal Greetings,
Duarte

[Govan]

So still closest to Portuguese and Spaniards.

White Brazilians might have some Amerindians and African, they are still close to their main ancestors like most Americans are to British people.

Hello Govan.
Thanks by reply. I agree with you. Regards.

Duarte, do you know the specific areas (freguesias/concelhos)?

African ancestry and considered white? only in Brazil!

 

[Duarte]

Minho and Aveiro.

 

[Duarte]

Yes, probably only in Brazil.
In Brazil, what matters is the phenotype and not the biotype,
Only the labs see the biotype. What the eyes see is the phenotype. The odious racial discrimination that occurs around the world takes into account what the eyes see and not what is engraved in their genes.
Below I post a link with my photos showing my appearance (phenotype) and challenge you to do the same by posting yours pics. Let's see who looks whiter in the eyes of society and who would be the most likely victim of discrimination in a white society.

So far as I know, only in the U.S. was the "one drop" rule applied. Of course, they had to prove it, which is why people were forced to leave their areas, families etc.

Horrible, all of it, but Brazil's way of dealing with it was more sensible. It worked the same way in Cuba and South Africa.

 

[nuno77]

Minho and Aveiro.

Minho é uma província histórica.
Aveiro é um districto.

Concelho = município.

Freguesia é a menor divisão administrativa em Portugal e no antigo Império Português, semelhante à paróquia civil dos outros países.

Hello Nuno.
The political division in Portugal is very different from the one adopted in Brazil, so I get confused a lot. In Brazil we have the States, within the States we have the Municipalities and we still have a State / Municipality that is the Federal District, which is the federal capital, Brasília. There are still metropolitan regions, which are not political divisions but economic divisions. For example, my hometown of Belo Horizonte has 2.3 million inhabitants, but it is the center of a metropolitan region that has 6 million inhabitants, the third largest in Brazil, behind only the metropolitan regions of São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro . Metropolitan regions have special status to address common issues related to transportation, sanitation, security, housing, environment, etc.
I do not know if I can answer satisfactory your question by the link attached below, with Family Tree DNA results informing the supposedly accurate origin's of of my oldest maternal ancestors and my oldest paternal ancestors. By the geographical coordinates, the first (maternal) would have come from the City of Aveiro, District of Aveiro, and the second (paternal) would have come from the City of Santarém, Ribatejo, and the City of Ponta Delgada, São Miguel Island, Azores.
Big hug.

There was no dna testing in the past and many multi generational mulattoes passed as white in the US, based on the one drop rule at least 1/2 of all white Americans would be non white because it's highly unlikely someone don't have a single non Caucasian ancestor going back 400 years. The average Southern colonial have 1-2% SSA and even higher Amerindian often exceeding 3%. The reason why White North Americans are pred 95-100% European is because they received a continuous wave of migration that always refreshed the old population. Most white Americans in the Midwest, Coastal areas are of recent European origin.

Olá Duarte,

so it seems you don't have anyone from the Minho region (https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minho_(província). Nowadays it corresponds to the districts of Braga and Viana do Castelo.
Braga and Guimarães are the biggest cities: you can find many people with these surnames.


You mention the city of Aveiro, which is also the name of a District.
https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aveiro_(desambiguação)

Btw, it's the family name of Cristiano Ronaldo dos Santos Aveiro. Someone took a boat from Aveiro to Madeira
The district of Aveiro is very famous for its maritime skills.


You mention the city of Santarém, which is also the name of a District.
https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santarém


I was just curious if you knew the name of some small municipalities, but it seems your ancestors came from big cities.

Abraço

Thanks for the explanations Nuno. I believe that in matters of Geography and geo-politics of Portugal I am not very good and would be disapproved in any school exam that I qualified to do. LMAO.
Thank you, once again, for the kindness and attention.

That's incorrect. A massive study was done on the subject, and the number of "white" Americans with "secret" SSA is extremely small. The vast majority of people in the U.S. have absolutely no SSA. Where it shows up most, predictably enough, is in the southern slave states.

The British were not like the Portuguese. The admixed children they produced were firmly relegated to the "black" world where they admixed with people with more SSA, not less.

See:
"The Genetic Ancestry of African Americans, Latinos and European Americans Across the U.S.
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0002929714004765

"Using a less conservative threshold, approximately 3.5% of European Americans have 1% or more African ancestry

(Figure S8). Individuals with African ancestry are found at much higher frequencies in states in the South than in other parts of the US: about 5% of self-reported European Americans living in South Carolina and Louisiana have at least 2% African ancestry. Lowering the threshold to at least 1% African ancestry (potentially arising from one African genealogical ancestor within the last 11 generations), European Americans with African ancestry comprise as much as 12% of European Americans from Louisiana and South Carolina and about 1 in 10 individuals in other parts of the South (Figure S8)."
