Mixed Moldovan Adoptee - Gedmatch

hey! hmm sounds interesting and could be true

Actually I think you do look North Caucasian in that photo. What ethnicities do you get mistaken for usually?

Why the fuck has that guy been erased?!

Hey! Euhm so because of my name people usually don't ask me where i'm from because they think I'm Belgian. But I got Moroccan and hispanic most of the times.( this is another account because I was erased for no reason)

I have no idea, I made another account just to be sure. Maybe people think I lied that I'm the one the post is referring to?

Yes, I did "invite" him, I created an account on Reddit to help another adopted girl and also linked this thread to the Moldovan adoptee. Don't ban him, he isn't a spammer.

I think the way to move forward from here, now that you know approximately what you are looking for, is to check the matches on the commercial sites you tested with. Pay attention to the people from Caucasus (should be matches from Russia down to Azerbaijan and Armenia) and see with which matches you get the most shared DNA. Then once you have a couple of candidates, google their surnames and hopefully find what ethnicity they belong to. Maybe you can narrow it down like this.

Unfortunately these modes for mixed people almost never work.

Thank you for this, unfortunately the only people who I connect with are less than 0,5% shared dna. The ones from my dad’s side are mostly from Turkey and they share less than 0,20% dna. There are 2-3 people from Azerbaijan, I will check them.

Don't forget to transfer your 23andme raw data to MyHeritage. They have an even larger database of users from Europe, so that increases your chances of finding something. For example, I tested originally on 23andme where I get 1375 relatives as of now, but on MyHeritage that rises to 1940.
