Yet another test that is inconsistent across the board.


Myself
Great Britain: 56.5
Ireland: 12.5
South Germanic: 26.4
France: 2.7
South Italy: 1.8

Father:
Great Britain: 87
Ireland: 4.8
South Germanic: 8.2

Maternal Grandmother:
Great Britain: 54.9
Ireland: 26
South Germanic: 13.1
France: 6

Maternal Grandfather:
Great Britain: 85.2
Ireland: 14.8


I've gotten 95, 84, and 69 British isles over different tests
My father has had 57, 69, 70, and 92, his uncle and mother have had similarly wild results
My grandfather has had 73, 94, and 100
My grandmother has had 51 and 81

I could be anywhere from 59 - 95 % British isles based on these tests! And lets not even talk about the other admixture, which seems to have hit every single country in europe at quantities compiled to over 200%

[JamesBond007]

Nothing has changed I don't think it has updated since 2020 :

Great Britain and Ireland 97.9%

Ireland 52.1%

Southeast England 13.1%

Northern Ireland and Southwest Scotland 6.4%

Cumbria 6%

Cornwall 5.7%

South England 4.7%

Northumbria 2.9%

East Anglia 2.8%

South Central England 2.8%

Orkney and Shetland Islands 1.2%

Europe (North and West) 2.1%

Northwest Germanic 2.1%

[JamesBond007]

Yet another test that is inconsistent across the board.

In my opinion modern population modeling is kind of meaningless (hence, your inconsistent results) and subject to change or more change compared to ancients. If you want meaningful to go back before the days of planes, trains and automobiles etc... back before people moved around such as the Iron Age + middle ages modeling or something with either academic or non-commercial tools perhaps :

Sample:Jamesbond007 ► AncestryDNA
Fit:1.848
Results:England IA49.5
Poprad MA18
Viking Age Sigtuna16.5
England Saxon16

Viking age Sigtuna =Swedish vikings

England Saxon = Saxons invaders in England

Poprad_MA (ancient German invader(s) of Poprad Slovakia or Duetschendorf (German town) Slovakia)

Not Sure that Poprad is a source population (maybe not enough samples) so anything under 2 is legit on this scale :


Sample:Jamesbond007 ► AncestryDNA
Fit:1.8948
Results:England IA53.5
England Saxon23

DEU MA8.5

DEU_MA = Germany in the middle ages

[Ion Basescul]

My new results are in.
They fixed the North Western noise and also stabilised the "East Balkan" component, probably by balancing it more towards Moldova. That's why the overlapping component "Northeast Europe" is not picked heavily as before, and instead the algorithm goes for the more Northeastern "West Russia". But I don't have any ancestry from there, so that's not accurate.

Szervusz, thats all I got, as it's the fist time I've tried this site. Overall I dont think it's not that bad sond more credible than current myheritage or 23andme where I get relatively huge amounts of both Scandinavian and Balkan.

I had to pay € 20 to see the results, before that it said only 100% European - without any further details. Idk why you don't get any regions under eastern europe.

What do you mean the update or the test in general ? If I had to guess it works better for people of British isles descent. It is not perfect even for that though. It works better for me me than modern G25 that has me as Dutch or closest to Dutch. It works better for me than AncestryDNA too etc...

For better or worse I also have my markers bought at the Chinese bazaar and I also color my maps.

I have been fenced in. The only thing I liked is that they have taken Sardinia from me and have given me the whole east of my country, including the Balearic Islands. For the rest they have made me a corral, they want to keep me there well isolated, well fenced in, because you have nothing to do with the rest of the countries of your continent.

You can see that Sardinia is in the green, because from the beginning FTDNA still keeps me 10% of Sardinia, well me and all the Spaniards a value approx. At the beginning someone must have known that Sardinia would be very isolated from its environment and knew how to put it to us Spaniards by creating a fictitious association and I am not sorry, we are not here to take care of other people's children, let Italy take care of it, the island is theirs.


Well Arabia I see they give it out like popcorn too, that's the only place I get it, well except in the Pangea of YourdnaPortal I have a result there with the sultanate of Idrissi which was an Arab sultanate if I remember correctly., hehe

The way you were assigned all those regions in England is very surprising. Looks like maybe they assigned you too much Eastern European/Balkanic admixture, and balanced the modeling with a dollop of English.

Exceedingly disappointed my results went BACKWARD, only 2.6% French now, rest being entirely British Isles. Terrible. I do not even cluster with fully British Isles users here, the closest "British" people to me are Bretons who are an intermediate population. Yet the latest tests I've taken have somehow given me less accurate results than past ones, I don't see how I can keep throwing money at this interest anymore.

No, not really. He is also extremly Easter Euro for an Austria. His mum is of Carinthian Slovene origin, but that doesn't explain his results either. We both have Ukrainian, Russian and Belorussian relatives (4th and 5th cousins on 23andme though. And our common patrilinear great granddad is unknown. Thats all i can say at this point.

How does it match up with your known British ancestry?

I've sometimes wondered if the small English regions are a bit of a gimmick, considering that much of England is genetically almost the same. It gives me some Southern English percentages (14%) when I have no ancestry from south of the Black Country.

I know I have English ancestors from Faversham Kent and North of London...so that fits with south england region.

I have 1 great great Grandmother who is fully Scottish.
Otherwise think my Mothers background is mostly a mix of English and Irish.
I always thought it was at least 60% English and rest mainly Irish.

Did you otherwise get North England regions.

That is a fantastic result.

So far, it seems that the Hungarian members and also us half Hungarians are scoring a healthy amount of this Pannonia category, it seems to be working very well.

Agree! We got really accurate results here with the MyHeritage raw data, although my 23andMe upload Living DNA results are quite inaccurate.

I got my updated results. It's probably my most accurate results so far. ;)

This is what i got with my MyHeritage data. That one is my most accurate DNA results.

[oszkar07]

I got the Update.
Not much changed other than they added 2% more to North East Europe.
Im reasonably happy with the result.
Of course in reality the East Euro side must be closer to 50% but probably some Germanic component from my Hungarian side got absorbed into the Britist estimate which has put British side 3% over.
Still this is pretty accurate result considering that I am half Hungarian and half British.

https://i.imgur.com/Kg9h0Ga.jpg?1

[Dunai]

Seeing some of these Hungarian results I believe I could score around 75-80% Pannonian on this calculator, but I'm not really willing as of now to pay to unlock my uploaded 23andMe results. I also find it rather peculiar that they don't include Slovenia also in the Panonnian category.

Recently i asked for opinions to non Euros about how accurate did they found LivingDNA for them and well it was basically bad to them while it's more accurate for Europeans maybe they don't have enough Non Euro samples to give better results.

No I'm Palestinian and Lebanese lol, people here just told me that I pass as Azeri lol. The arabia is certainly bogus though, my family had lived in the same village since the early 1700's. I'm at least content with the fact that it did not give me an insane amount of Egyptian the waay 23andme did; where my family is from isn't anywhere near egypt :rolleyes:

I'm thinking about doing Living DNA, but it's continental proportions seem way off, especially with my Amerindian DNA (it's overblowing it), what do you think about that?

I wanted to specify about MENA people i'm in a whatsapp group about DNA and ancestry and there are many MENA people that did the test and was very bad in their opinion. Idk about Latin Americans in general.

It's hard to tell because my mother and dad didn't score SSA with the MH and FTDNA raw data, so I think it depends the person and raw data, it's up in the air.

Imo buying their real test would be the best option, very likely in that way you will score better results.

how does this company compare with Ancestry & 23andme ?

[#Oda#]

how does this company compare with Ancestry & 23andme ?

I judge the companies by the criterion how much Scandinavia & GB I get instead of Northwest and also South Europe. The less, the better.
After this criterion MyH is by far the worst (100% England) and Living DNA meanwhile the best company, even better than praised 23andme with 20% Scandinavia. Ancestry swings around 50% Scandinavia, depending on update. So Living DNA is pretty good now, indeed the best due to my results, after it had assigned up to 95% GB (mainly England) to many NW Germans before.

Pretty close - Creoda's mother is my closest in G25 distance after Plattitüdenpaule. (Yes, fully German definetely.)

But what's even crazier than 100% for me is that my father instead got 56% Scandinavia (if I remember correctly) and several other components, but NO England at all. Says all about MyH's quality.

Quite uncommon for a German to score like an English person. At least back when GEDmatch was widely used Germans would normally score different (more Balto-Slavic or more Southern European). But newer tools and models may use different methods. I used to be a big GEDmatch "expert" but now am nearly incompetent ever since it fell out of use.

Well, its not so uncommon - I saw several N Germans scoring 70-90%. I am an extreme outlier.

That's East Germans and South Germans. NW Germans are very close to the Dutch genetically, and consequently pretty close to the English as well, especially those from Westphalia and Southern Lower Saxony, where Oda is from I believe. Former user Aynora from NRW was also close.

Yes, there's quite a split within Germany. The settling area of Slavs ends roughly in the Elbe River region, that's the reason.
I'm South Lower Saxon - we are very close to Westfalians genetically.

I am not sure tbh. I am doing it primarily to get more detailed info on my maternal haplogroup. My autosomal is pretty boring, I doubt I’d get anything new.

People that do have British ancestry are impressed by the accuracy of LivingDNA. But if one not does have any British ancestry, like me, such detailed results are more funny, not to say unmasking.

Btw. do you have G25 coords (except your own) that you could contribute with to our public collection of people with four grandparents from the same ethnicity for the North Europe PCA? Can be anonymously or pseudonymously (like #Oda#_father_scaled f. i.).
