Turkish state releases online genealogy service

[Ryujin]

The Turkish state has released an online genealogy service that enables Turkish citizens to track their lineage as far as 1800s. They can see the birth places of their grand grandparents and which town they were registered in.

What appears in my records:

1860 - Istanbul (Paternal lineage)
1864 - Samahto (an old name for an Eastern Anatolian village of Elazig, Mother's paternal lineage)
1867 - Uslu (Elazig - Eastern Anatolia, Mother's paternal lineage)
1873 - Lovech (Modern-day Bulgaria - Paternal lineage)
1876 - Edirne (East Thrace, Paternal lineage)
1878 - Xanthi (Modern-day Greece, Paternal lineage)
1879 - Uslu (Elazig - Eastern Anatolia, Mother's paternal lineage)
1881 - Istanbul (East Thrace, Paternal lineage)
1884 - Istanbul (Mother's paternal lineage, this is after they migrated to Istanbul from Easter Anatolia probably)
1886 - Zagora (Modern-day Bulgaria, Mother's maternal lineage)

1896 - Trabzon (Black Sea, Father's maternal lineage)
1899 - Izmir (Aegean, Father's paternal lineage)
1900 - Edirne (East Thrace, Father's paternal lineage)
1911 - Mosul (Modern-day Iraq, Father's maternal lineage)
1914 - Tekirdag (East Thrace, Mother's maternal lineage)
1921 - Edirne (East Thrace, Father's lineage)
1922 - Zagora (Modern-day Bulgaria Mother's maternal lineage, so they were still in Bulgaria up to this point)
1925 - In exile (It's for mother's paternal lineage from Elazig, it says 'in exile' in this date, I don't know why)

In summary: Mother's maternal lineage is originally from Bulgaria-Zagora, Father's lineage is a mix of Greece-Xanthi, Bulgaria-Lovech, Trabzon and East Thrace, Mother's paternal lineage is from Elazig, Eastern Anatolia

Mosul is in Iraq not Syria. Did you expect your mom’s or dad’s side to be from so many places?

Sorry, I fixed it. Nah, I only new that dad is from Thrace and mom is half Bulgaria half Eastern Anatolia. I didn't know the cities or whatsoever.

I thought you would say that. Most people can’t imagine that their ancestors came from far away places. Can you imagine if there were records for your mom and dad side going back 1000 years how interesting that would be.

That’s why most people have a problem with admixture calculator results which show ancestry from far places because they can’t imagine their ancestors coming from far away. They like to think they have lived there forever. That’s why companies like 23andme manipulate results to get rid of ancestry further back than 100 or 200 years!

would be interesting to see more turkish members doing this

Going back 1000 years earlier would indeed be interesting.

Yea people like to think that way. Most humans in fact are mixed.

All people will somehow find out they are linked to Erdogan.
