It is interesting that your daughter doesn't show the Western Europe part Lisa. Also a lot of my presumed Irish background didn't seem to be transmitted. Did you upload your raw data to GEDmatch? Lots of interesting stuff in that database and it's free. Promomethease gives you lots of medical information and cost $5.Sue in Italia/In the Land Of Cancerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11146373251097877539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5478470125662290860.post-39925614814699832732016-07-29T15:35:37.561-04:002016-07-29T15:35:37.561-04:00Don't discount the Native American thing so fa...Don't discount the Native American thing so fast. You only inherit half of your parent's DNA. Which half is up for grabs. That is why you can get two siblings with different color hair and eyes. Each person can only contribute half of their DNA to their children. If you didn't receive any of a certain gene from your parents, it will not be passed on. So, my aunt shows Ireland and West Europe, with only trace amounts of Great Britain and Native American. On the other hand, I show 35% Ireland, 27% Great Britain, 25% West Europe, but no Native American. My daughter only has Irish and Great Britain. My son is very similar to me. Maya can have Native American ancestors, she just didn't get their genes. Ancestry has a very good tutorial about gene distribution in their Ancestry Academy. You can access it with the Extras button.Lisa https://www.blogger.com/profile/09324961653370110887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5478470125662290860.post-53194516704170356962016-07-28T18:29:50.351-04:002016-07-28T18:29:50.351-04:00Scary times here.

When I listened to him rant and rave during the first Republican debate, I thought no one would ever take him seriously but I was so wrong. And he really has no plan to help his main followers, uneducated white men but he unites them with inane slogans.Sue in Italia/In the Land Of Cancerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11146373251097877539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5478470125662290860.post-27923304109125163432016-07-28T18:16:37.577-04:002016-07-28T18:16:37.577-04:00Sigh.

Forgetting (conveniently) that the people from whom they 'acquired' said country were not white.<br />And the 'good old days' were very good for some and incredibly hard work for others. Which hasn't changed much.Elephant's Childhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06650565833097914052noreply@blogger.com
