You'd think that Rocky would show a higher percentage for West Europe. The Iberian peninsula is pretty much just Spain and Portugal. France is included in West Europe. Rocky has a really high % for Ireland. Somewhere in his lineage, his people were from that ethnic group, I assume. I didn't know that France did not allow testing of MTDNA. That does give the OTHER half of the story, for heaven's sakes. And that's just as important as the father's side.

Now that's funny. I think we're all mutts, no matter how many sources of our heritage we can find. But I have to say, I was a little jealous when I saw Shirley's DNA results. I don't have as many, and she has some native American, and our family was wrong, there doesn't seem to be any in mine. This is a fun conversation here!

Your family wasn't necessarily wrong. Ethnicity results only reach back on the average 5-6 generations at which time each ancestor's DNA is at the 1% level. These tests don't reliably pick up below 1% and that amont can be "noise." Furthermore, ancestral DNA is not passed in each generation at the 50% level, meaning you could get more from one ancestor and less from another. https://dna-explained.com/2015/06/09/how-much-indian-do-i-have-in-me/ So you may have a Native ancestor, just far enough back that they don't know in ethnicity testing, but could be discernable in Y or mitochondrial DNA testing of the appropriate lines.

Hi Cousins and Cousines, I'm really glad to see so many people testing their DNA. Through Ancestry, you can see who you're related to, and the common ancestors. At Family Tree DNA, you have a chromosome browser, so you can attribute actual DNA segments to certain ancestors and see how you match. While the ethnicity estimates are interesting, through any vendor, they are the least reliable of any type of testing. I want to emphasize the word, estimates. For those of you who don't know, I write the blog www.dna-explained.com and have been involved with genetic genealogy since the beginning, back in the dark ages of the year 2000:) I began writing DNA Reports about 2004, am an affiliate researcher with National Geographic, etc. Yes, I love the field. Having said that, I want to caution people about reading too much into ethnicity results. I wrote about my own here, broken down by my known heritage and then showing my DNA results from the different vendors. They vary widely. https://dna-explained.com/2017/01/11/concepts-calculating-ethnicity-percenta ges/ This article talks about how to calculate what ethnicity percentages you can expect from your known genealogy. A couple people have written me personally wondering why they had this or that location in their ethnicity. Bottom line is that I can't tell you why. But I did write this article about how ethnicity is calculated and why you may see unexpected results. https://dna-explained.com/2016/02/10/ethnicity-testing-a-conundrum/ Populations in Europe were and are still very mobile. Think about the Celts settling the British Isles, for example. For all vendors, resolution in Europe and differentiating between countries is difficult, at best. Furthermore, nearly all vendors have "too much" Scandinavian. Ancestry tends to be the worst of these. I also want to remind people in this group that DNA testing in France is illegal, and that's for genetic genealogy or paternity, either one. There are actually labs just across the border that do a bangup business in paternity testing for the French, but that's a topic for another time. The accuracy of ethnicity testing depends on two things, the reference panel that you are being compared to, and the algorithm of the testing company. The DNA results from France have come from elsewhere and in essence, there is a big hole in the middle of Europe. Unfortunately, for us, that hole is exactly the reference panel we need. While I'm talking about DNA, you are all welcome to subscribe to my blog. It's free. In addition to publishing one "how to" or technical article each week, I typically publish something of general interest and then on the weekend, I publish an article about one of my ancestors that always has a DNA component. Often, people use these as examples of how to apply DNA to genealogy. Sometimes, I meet other cousins through these articles. I have not begun on the Acadian lines, per se, meaning start to finish, but I will. I was hoping to visit Acadia first. Maybe next year. In the mean time, I have written a couple of articles about my Acadian ancestors. Some of these may be your ancestors too - Antoine Lore/Lord, Radegonde Lambert and Jacques dit Beautmont de Bonnevie. https://dna-explained.com/2016/03/06/anthony-lore-1805-18621867-river-trader -or-pirate-52-ancestors-114/ https://dna-explained.com/2016/09/18/radegonde-lambert-16211629-16861693-eur opean-not-native-52-ancestors-132/ https://dna-explained.com/2014/06/29/jacques-dit-beaumont-de-bonnevie-acadia n-from-paris-52-ancestors-26/ Last, I would like to suggest one other article that is very relevant to Acadian families and research about endogamy - the intermarriage within a particular group over time. https://dna-explained.com/2017/03/10/concepts-the-faces-of-endogamy/ I am hopeful that using segment matching that we will eventually be able to identify specific segments contributed by specific originating ancestors. Once these segments can be identified, then they can be recognized in individuals which will help break down brick walls. I also want to mention for those who aren't aware that Marie Rundquist, our cousine, is also very involved with this type of research as well and is my co-administrator and co-founder on several projects. While there is not a Fathers of Acadia project, Marie's project is the closest and has many Acadian surnames represented. I'll ask Marie to chime in and discuss her project(s). Perhaps we should form an Acadian DNA project at Family Tree DNA so that anyone who descends from the Acadian population, whether through Y (paternal surname for males only), mitochondrial (matrilineal line) or autosomal DNA (any lines) can join and participate by comparing DNA. Roberta Estes

Thank you, Roberta, and hi, my cousins! Thank you for asking me to chime in! This is a GREAT IDEA and this project will be welcomed by family researchers of Acadian lines who enrich and add to their genealogies through the use of DNA testing. The Amerindian Ancestry out of Acadia project Roberta refers to in her post was established in 2006 and has many of the founder Y and mtDNA results that we now rely upon as cornerstones in our genealogy research. For the Y DNA in particular, our "persons of interest" studies have yielded several Y DNA haplogroup signatures for Acadian surnames and members will find surname "subgroups" with Y DNA results when they view our project information -- as new privacy rules limit the display of ALL DNA results we have in our project on our public website unless members expressly allow their results to be viewed by "anyone." The Amerindian Ancestry out of Acadia Family Tree DNA project has been EXTREMELY fortunate to have the very generous assistance of project participants, genealogists, scientists, engineers, and published historians in building this data. Surname projects started in the Amerindian Ancestry out of Acadia project have led to published articles and large-scale studies -- for example the C-P39 Y DNA study that Roberta and I manage was borne out of the Native Y DNA results of male descendants of Germain Doucet b. 1641 and others of this same haplogroup that had accumulated in our project. Founding members of our Amerindian Ancestry out of Acadia project have also contributed to the findings we've had for haplogroup A2, and the X2b4 mtDNA haplogroup types by allowing their kits to be added to these mtDNA projects that Roberta Estes and I also manage through Family Tree DNA. Roberta Estes has published numerous, valuable blogs related to Native Y DNA, Native mtDNA and the X2b4 mtD! NA haplogroup findings in particular and I encourage all to read and share Roberta's blogs with others. We've lately integrated "allied families" in our Amerindian Ancestry out of Acadia project. The impact of non-Acadian "allied families" on our recent-generation autosomal DNA results (and matches!) cannot be understated. Unlike the Y DNA surname and mtDNA studies, where DNA haplogroups are repeatable through paternal-line and maternal-line descendants spanning centuries, autosomal DNA segments are contributed to the autosomal DNA tester by both parents, follow more recent family lines, and these genetic segments may or may not be shared among all siblings in the same way. We are just beginning to discover the allied families that enter Acadian family lines in recent generations and detect their contributions to our DNA and so this is an area that will be receiving more attention over time. Like Roberta, I'm a published author of several articles and books related to the field of genetic genealogy, with my first article, "Finding Anne Marie: The Hidden History of our Acadian Ancestors," published in 2005, and, like Roberta, I am also an affiliate National Geographic researcher. As with other projects which I co-manage with Roberta Estes and David Pike, I'm pleased to support Roberta Estes in this valuable endeavor.
