There's been some hurt feelings over this in the family
https://www.ar15.com/forums/t_1_5/2005059_Did-The-Ancestry-com-DNA-Thing-Tinfoilers-Disapprove-.html I'm just jazzed about my ethnic purity!

Another side story to the Ancestry escapade:
My in-laws are still alive and both of them expressed interest in seeing how their DNA lined up. So I paid for them both to be tested and then my MIL realized that there was a very good chance that their son was not fathered by her husband, who had fathered two other siblings with her including my wife. This was after she had sent in the sample and she called my wife one night very distraught asking if we could cancel the testing. Once it's sent in, it's fire and forget so there's nothing we can do. 
The consequences will never be the same! |

To the guy that his wife and him supposedly have 0% black and his kid has 10% black, I think you need to do a retest and maybe a serious sit-down with the wife. You might be part of the statistic that you're raising a kid that's not yours.
Wouldn't be the first time. |

Do it again. Exactly the same. Different results I promise.

Based on my own genealogical research going back 7-8 generations, I am:
58% English 25% Swedish 14% Scottish 3% Welsh Prior to the time period I covered, 98% of all people on earth were born and died within a circle 20 miles in diameter, so I doubt I could glean anything new or that there would be any surprises from this type of DNA test. |

I'm basically as white as it gets according to mine. Wales/Ireland less than 1% Greek less don't really understand that. where's my white privilege I never got mine It all makes a little more sense when you research the assumptions and oversimplifications made to generate those percentages and defined nationalities. I recommend downloading your data from Ancestry and trying it out using the tools available at GEDmatch.com. They're not as easy to use or understand as Ancestry though. |

It's more likely that the trace she shares is a European DNA trace that is simply common in ashkenazi jews in Europe. Ancestry will then call her x% jewish.

I have been getting several of my older family members to do it. Ancestry just made that a lot harder to do though since they changed the policy. Some of these older folks don't do email or computers so well and that means they can't do the DNA anymore....

I did it a while back. Any Native American rumors were clarified as Iberian. Don't care about the database thing since I was military in the 90's.
I have a fear of being "that guy," so I have officially narrowed my dating pool.

I did it. It was something like 50% British, 25% German, and 25% Eastern European. Nothing exciting. Not American Indian, not part Chinese, not part African.
Now all I can do is pretend to be a trannie if I want to become a protected victim class... |

I know a guy who claimed a Cherokee princess in his bloodline. Well, really that a grandparent was found in the woods as a baby injun and adopted.
Sister had the DNA done. 0% indian blood. Quote: "Oh, I don't believe that DNA stuff. I know for a fact we had an orphan injun in our family"...
I didn't have the heart to tell him where my grandparents thought that swarthy skin tone comes from... |
