Moldovan/Romanian GEDmatch Resuts

[Ion Basescul]

I was right, judging by surnames. And yes, if Gagauz/Bulgarians have such effect in southern parts, same goes in northern parts too. Plus people move, I know plenty of people in my town with ancestry from Cahul and other southern parts, including minorities from that area. Who knows what kind of results they will have, after I saw how different people from South are from people from central and northern parts of the country.

You were not right judging by the surnames.
Voinov is a surname shared in Moldova, Russia and Ukraine.
Alexandrov/Alexandrova is a surname that is 7 times more popular in Moldova than in Romania and 14 times nore popular in Moldova than in Bulgaria.

The only reason I disclosed them was just to prove your ignorance.

1/2 Moldovan Ukrainian (but identifies this side as Russian, since the parent is Russophone), 1/2 Central Moldovan from Chisinau

What about their Dodecad? You can always add it to your posts, at least when someone is part Russian/Ukrainian because I do follow this thread with interest.

Voinov and Aleksandrov are super Russian surnames.

Both surnames exist in Bulgaria, so you didn't prove anything.

Definitely, because it's not Aleksandrova, but Alexandrova since they are not transliterated from Cyrillic. I'm sure the actual bearers of this surname wrote it correctly on GEDmatch. You are being pedantic, just for the sake of it, while at the same time not contributing at all.

There is no strict transliteration rules in Russian-speaking countries, some may prefer Aleksandr and others would use the Western cognate Alexander if their name is Александр.

Is a simple moldovenisation/romanisation of these surnames.

Same as this one: https://forebears.io/surnames/voynov

Сheckmate.

Huimate, I'm doing a rokirovka, so there isn't any mate, let alone checkmate.


I can understand that those also exist in Bulgaria.
But I still insist on two things:
1) If the person themself claims that all 4gp are Moldovan/Romanian, then they know better.
2) If they spelt them a Alexandrova and Voinov, which are both more popular in Moldova and Romania than Bulgaria, then they also know better.


But at the end of the day, this argument that you've started is useless when trying to prove that their East Med is caused by Bulgarians, because autosomally Bessarabian Bulgarians fit within the South Moldovan continuum.
