Here are my DNA results from various companies I've tested with/submitted my DNA to. If there are any genetic communities attached to my results, I'll post the ones I've confirmed from my family research.

A bit of background on my family:
- My father's family has been in North America for hundreds of years. The last immigrant ancestor on his side was my 4th great-grandfather, who came to the U.S. from France in the mid 1800s.
- My mother's family is made up of recent immigrants besides one branch, who lived in the U.S. since at least the late 1700s and early 1800s (I can't trace those branches outside of the U.S., but based on surnames, they were most likely Germanic).

23andMe is the most accurate. Before Ancestry's newest update, I would've said they were almost as accurate as 23andMe, but this newest Ancestry update is trash, imo.

I'm mainly surprised how different my percentages are across the board. I know I had mixed European ancestry, though, so the categories themselves aren't that surprising.

Nice results! I am thinking do the test from 23andme and a Brazilian company that has more data about native american. Myheritage is horrible for that.

But in summary my DNA is always varying between 80-85% Europe. I wanted to know about my native part.

The amount of variation between results, even talking about someone who is 100% White, is bizarre. Now imagine how things work with mixed people.

Nice results.

Looks like Dnaland amongst those is the odd one out.
As it gives you much more Slavic/East European than any of the others at 29%.
From your other results I would assume you are more than 42 % North West European.

Is there anything you're still hoping to learn from DNA tests in general? :)

Thanks for the question! As of now, I'm mainly trying to find more relatives so I can construct my family tree with more certainty
