My mother's side is French - her lineage goes back to the Crusades, mixed with some English along the way.

My father's side is a mix of Scottish and German.

I really wanted the Ancestry DNA kit for Christmas but didn't get it Chat Icon

Re: What's your heritage?

50% Danish, 25% German
The other 25% I just consider American as my paternal grandmother's family was in America since the late 1600's

Italian
Moms side from Sicily
Dads side from Naples

But did ancestry DNA and it seems only 80% of my DNA is Italian.

The rest is listed as west Asia
Caucasus (thinking its Georgian descent Bc GGrandma spoke French)
Middle eastern

Obv I just say Italian lol all this DNA stuff is confusing



How much was the ancestry DNA? I'd be so curious what mine says.



I got it on sale for $79+ship
But I think it's normally $99+

That I know of Irish/Russian / Swiss and Italian.
It's funny b/c I lived in London for a bit and whenever I got on this topic Europeans thought I was Spanish but here is the states, everyone thinks I am 100% Italian. I've been wanting to do one of those DNA tests for a while but I've heard that it's a bit of a scam. Everyone comes back a bit of everything.



Not true. My nephew took the test and usually you have everything but his ancestry came back only
European.

I'm a true mutt! Dad is Irish, German, French Canadian and Mom is Italian, Polish and Scottish. My dads sister recently got into tracing our DNA and said she found Native American in there as well.

I just read that the Mormons were baptizing the dead, even Holocaust victims.

However lets say they baptized your name, what difference does it make. They can't force you into a club you don't want to be in.

Re: What's your heritage?

My brother did the DNA testing & we are mutts.
To simplify it...
on my mother's side... Polish/Lithuanian
on my father's side... Irish/German
Smaller percentages of other European nationalities (Greek, Italian, French, English)
