Thanks. But were their ancestors all ethnic Slovenes or maybe some Germans/Hungarians eto too?

Silly question, but is there an option to delete replies? I accidentally replied without quoting two times. Only later realised, I could edit it instead of answering again…
This isn’t easy to answer. Hungarians no, but regarding Germans it’s hard to say.
For my tested parent, I’d answer yes, they were ethnically Slovene.
Grandparent 2 has some ancestors originating from the area which used to be ethnically German before WWII, and they told me how a great-grandfather was “German”.
Looking at your posted maps and comparing them with the 23andMe estimates, I find it interesting how Grandparent 2 with the largest Greek & Balkan percentage (8.2%) has the least coloured regions in that area on your map. Serbia and parts of Bosnia especially stand out, being almost completely blue, while it’s green to yellow in the other two maps, whose tested persons only have 2.1%/1.7% and 4.2% of Greek & Balkan estimates in comparison.
Here is my K13 PCA with your kits.

Results look totally normal and the 23andMe results and GEDmatch look to be copesetic.
So the grandparent who scores higher French & German is infact the grandparent with a possible German ancestor? Also, is your tested parent the child of your grandparents? If so, and the accounts are connected, then your parent will be phased, and their estimate is theoretically the most accurate.
What's interesting is that these 23andMe results, and also the GED results, are very similar to how many Hungarians score. The main difference I can see as far as 23andMe results is the Slovenia recent ancestor location. I don't think Hungarians usually score Slovenia at all.
Grandparent 1 has an unknown grandfather. There was some theorisation who it may be, but that would require some Italian admixture, which rules out that possibility. Therefore, the identity remains unknown. Overall, the family tree of Grandparent 1 is the least explored by far when compared to other three of my grandparents. Currently, though, they don’t seem any more or less German than most of my other ancestors.
Given having the highest French & German estimate of the three (27%), I’m surprised 23andMe wasn’t able to break it down at least into countries if not subregions. When I uploaded raw data to MyHeritage, Grandparent 1 was the only one with a genetic group which didn’t disappear at the highest confidence level, namely Northern Switzerland, Southern Germany, Eastern France and Western Austria. Albeit, I’ve read MyHeritage is the least reliable…
The tested parent is the child of Grandparent 1, while Grandparent 2 is unrelated to them. The percentages and the raw data I posted for Parent are those after phasing. While they are indeed likely more accurate, it was somewhat disappointing phasing increased the broadly estimates and gave 0.1% Unassigned which wasn’t there before.
Phasing also revealed 1.6% of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry comes from the untested grandparent and was unexpected. Unlike 0.6% Finnish with Grandparent 2, I suppose that isn’t just noise. What also surprised me is how Grandparent 2 had Poland and Russia as Possible Matches, unlike the other two family members, who only got Slovenia in Eastern European. None of them as Highly Likely Match, though.
Here, I posted the regions where my known ancestors were born. If you look eastern from there, regions № 36 and 22 used to be part of the Hungarian half of the Austro-Hungarian Empire before 1918. It maybe isn’t directly next to the ethnic border with Hungarians, but it neighboured the historically Hungarian territory. It could potentially explain the similarity to Hungarian results.
Just, overall, the reason why I wasn’t so sure about my results — besides my friend not getting any French & German and Greek & Balkan — was seeing videos online how certain people could easily pinpoint an ancestors in their family tree with the given ancestry, including the subregions. I suspect that’s much rarer in reality.

It has little correlation how much you score North Atlantic, Baltic and whatever, to your 23andme score of national categories. You can be for example half English half Nigeria and obviously get lower "N.Atlantic" than most countries in Europe as it's gonna be cut in half, while still getting around 50% British and Irish on 23andme, as it should be. All these scores in 23andme are more based on IBD and specific local markers than pure admixture proportions, even less compared to made up Eurogenes components.
If someone doesn't score F&G, he just doesn't have enough IBD/blocks in common, either too old, diluted or too mixed with other things to detect it with confidence as a percentage of this specific group. It improved a lot through the years. For example when i tested i had something like 35% F&G + a lot of British (which i was sure i didn't have), now im over 75% F&G, and i think it's the case for anyone with real recent ancestry from this part of Europe. It's more or less a Rhine valley peak with its large vicinity that is shared around.
Interesting to see Gorski Kotar as the closest for Grandparent 1. 23andMe also detects it, with the same intensity as Zadar County.
And this County of Glatz/Kłodzko/Kladsko keeps appearing. It was also prominently displayed on the maps posted by ph2ter.
I’m reviving this thread with my personal results. I’m surprised I only got a single subdivision in Slovenia and (unexpectedly) Hungary and no further breakdown for French & German (similar to Grandparent 1). Given the fact my tested relatives got much more of them, I thought I would as well. But, overall, the estimates aren’t really a surprise.

Sincere thanks, ph2ter!
I’m surprised how many more red regions I have compared to my tested family members. The whole Hungary really stands out, аs well as the highlighted regions of northern Croatia and the Hmeljnicjka oblastj in Ukraine.
Also, what does the first map posted here (titled MCMXCV_K13) show?
I always enjoy seeing these distance estimates, so thanks for these numbers! Why would you say there’s a difference between K13 and K17, with Croat_Bosnia being on the top in the latter?
From what I understand, all these estimates show the genetic similarity to the listed populations, but not necessarily the origin of my ancestors? Or is it way more distanced ancestors? What I’m trying to say is that I can quite confidently state that at least ľ of my ancestors can be traced back to at least mid-18th century and were all born within present-day Slovenia, and this would go against it. I certainly wouldn’t expect 100% Slovene; I’m just trying to understand.
Can I, for example, expect to find an ancestor who was born in Galicia or comes from an area where Csángós live, when I go further back, or would it be before there’re any records?
Great collection of tests!
Did you connect all tested individuals in their parent-child relation (resulting in getting phased against one or two parents and improving the Ancestry Composition of all involved)?
Maybe also interesting: https://www.theapricity.com/forum/sh...dMe-Change-Log!
I only saw this after the above reply.
Parent phased against Grandparent 1 (I also saw the estimates prior to that), and I phased against my parent when getting my results. Grandparent 2 is from my untested parent, so there isn’t a connection by phasing, only the usual one.
And thanks for the link. I saw that post, but since tests have been made just recently and there hasn’t been an update, I didn’t think it’s worth sharing. It’s only the initial date and phasing.
Thanks, neither me.
I've none of my grandparents tested (all deceased), but by comprehensive chromosome painting, resulting in 80% of the DNA getting painted and extrapolation to 100%, I found out that the DNA from one pair of grandparents was inherited as skewed as abt. 35%:15%. I regard that borderline and assess it to be within the 1% most extreme cases.
My grandparents are 90 and 89. The other two have been deceased for quite some time, so there was never an option to have them tested. Fortunately, my tested grandparents come from each of my parents, so it enables phasing for both of them.
I’m glad you were able to find out your inheritance percentages. 15% does seem low. Do you know whether there’s a tool which calculates an estimate of the missing (grand)parent’s DNA? Eurogenes values or something similar. Something along the lines of deducting the tested parent’s DNA from the child’s and predicting the untested parent’s DNA. I’m not sure if it exists or if it’s even possible. 23andMe does show which ethnicity you got from each parent after phasing, but you cannot just multiply that by two to get the parent’s estimate.
In my opinion, this is simply genetic similarity to populations/balanced modeling, and likely not indicative of actual ancestry, in your case. So while the results might suggest a Galician or Csangos ancestor, only a paper trail can add validity to that. Otherwise, it is just as likely to be fully attributable to genetic similarity or because of a deviation that you have from the average. It is important to remember that the averages are made up of a number of samples, those sample form a normal range for an ethnicity. My guess is that all family members you posted fall within the normal range of results for full Slovene, even if not right on the average. On an additional note you also are using 23andMe data, which is not quite as good for use with GED/Vahaduo and can skew individual components by 2%.
As far as comparing your K13 and K15.. K13 has been more extensively updated with quality samples across the board, so that could explain the difference. K15 is good for someone like me as it seems to handle my East-West split of German and Hungarian very well, and some people say it handles Western Europe better than K13, but in your case I would suggest K13 is the more reliable of the two. Still, your K15 is quite reasonable, imo.
When you have distance between parental ancestries (let's say Irish and Romanian, or German and Hungarian), you can make a somewhat reliable theoretical result for an untested parent using GED components. The further the distance between the parents, the better. However, when they (the parents) are from the same ethnicity, this method does not work well.
For example, I use a theoretical kit to represent my father (he was never tested), his kit was developed assuming that I plot exactly between my parents. The problem for an individual like you, who's parents are the same ethnicity, is that your family will tend to plot right around each other in an unpredictable way. The further the parents plot from each other, the more reliable the mid point method of creating an untested parent's kit becomes.
