I don't care much about sample size as long as they appear representative. I personally use a lot of averages based on 5-10 samples only.Quote:

They have, just like East Slavs, Gagauz, Jews, Gypsies and even Germans, but this person doesn't seem to have anything Bulgarian in their family tree. Seems to be a typical profile for the Southern regions (although the surname is kind of rare for the South, but the 5th most popular in Edinet), even in people without Bulgarian or Gagauz admixture.Quote:

This line still make sense.

Yes, but you need another one in the North. For example Cantemir is more Moldovan than your native district, according to both the 2004 and 2014 censuses.Quote:

Cantemir district have a visible Bulgarian minority, you already posted a Bulgarian from here who was very Southern with only 17% Baltic. Bay the way, after I saw the name of the village of that Bulgarian I remembered what I have a friend with origins from that village, he is Moldavian, and his surname (not Bulgarian) is from that area, despite he live in Cahul district now. The most interesting part is when he start to tell about his ancestry. xDQuote:

I actually have a person with that surname, but they are from Targoviste in Dambovita. Autosomally would fit in Cantemir though.Quote:

About Căușeni and Ștefan Vodă I don't believe they are very southern, need more samples from that area.Quote:

For a moment I didn't understand what he means by the Turkish, when he explained what this mean Gagauz. Seems what some Moldavians in the South name Gagauz Turks, despite them to be only turkified Bulgarians, judging by their genetics.Quote:
