I have tested with 3 major companies.

FamilyTree Dna, AncestryDNA and 23andme

My results from:

FTDNA:
81% West and Central Europe
6% British Isles
6% Scandinavian
5% Eastern European
2% trace regions

Ancestry DNA:
74% England, Wales and Northwestern European
16% Ireland & Scotland
8% Norway
2% African

23andme:
British & Irish: 37%
French & German: 28%
Scandinavian: 6%
Spanish & Portuguese: 2%
Broadly Northwestern: 22%
Broadly Southern: 2%
Broadly European: 2%
SSA: 3%


I am still trying to figure out if my family lore of being French Cajun is accurate or if that side of the family was actually Bretons.

In your experience which test is more accurate when differentiating the French from the British?

post your Eurogenes K36 results from Gedmatch (AncestryDNA or FTDNA file) so that we can check your admixture with function B here http://gen3553.pagesperso-orange.fr/ADN/similitude.htm

even without function B it is obvious that you are partly French

with function B: 40% British_mixed removed >

Oh wow thanks for the map.
Well by the looks of that I’d say FTDNA is probably the most accurate then

Do you have legit black ancestry? How much SSA and NE African on K13/15?

Yes I do. I found my black ancestor through family tree documents.
My mother has roughly 7-10% SSA

But I’ll post that for you here in a bit

86319
86320

Here are my K13 and K15
My SSA is much lower
And they give me Oceanian and South Asian I’m unsure of
But my mother’s K13 and K15 show much higher SSA and other African percentages

1% SSA is nothing, you're not black ;)
I don't know about the Oceanian, it may be noise or some misread stuff.

I never said I was lol.
I did find my ancestor though.
