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/ [https://dnaexplained.files.wordpress.com/2012/07/cropped-dnaexplain1.jpg]<https://dna-explained.com/2015/06/09/how-much-indian-do-i-have-in-me/> How Much Indian Do I Have in Me??? | DNAeXplained ...<https://dna-explained.com/2015/06/09/how-much-indian-do-i-have-in-me/> dna-explained.com I can’t believe how often I receive this question.
