    Default Which test more accurately differentiates French from British?

    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

    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

    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.
