Ancestry DNA 2024 UPDATE!

[Mortimer]

You 100% are small part Jew when you get community on 23andme and score it also on Ancestry. It probably comes from your Russian ancestry. Or Hungarian, if you have any of that.

My aunt said i have some hungarian ancestry via a great grandfather, so maybe. But maybe she just talked bs.

Hungarian Gypsies have ethnic Hungarian admix, and you are from Vojvodina, it is quite likely IMO.

Oh, come on, 1%. I would say 1% is most likely noise.

Oh, come on, 1%.

What do you mean? 23andme is reliable even with 0.1% Jewish estimate, and Ancestry is as well, everyone who gets it has some for real except Sephards who score Ashkenazi without being partly that because of shared ancestry between those 2.

I know i have a russian ancestor though, 1/16 great great grandfather i guess thats my baltic and russian and central/east european, maybe the 1% ashkenazi is also part of that.

Mine:



My wife’s:



It’s hard to understand how my abt. 40% proto Slavic (in common calculations) becomes inflated as 57% Baltics and Central & Eastern Europe in sum while my wife’s abt. 29% proto Slavic (in common calculations) becomes dwarfed to 9% Baltics and Central & Eastern Europe in sum.

Does my (not applicable) 10% Sweden represent a "Germanic concentrate" that would be a notably bigger percentage - say 20% - if it would be expressed as Germanic Europe?

They're slowly turning me Scottish. Also looks like the Channel islands is the "new thing". Strong associations...

I think you are exaggerating. I know the genealogy of my family very well and from my experience those small % have no confirmation. With 0.1% it is always possible to speculate though that it is from that ancestor you can't find from 500-1000 years ago. Oh, I would love to find my Papuan ancestors.
