I have found the same anomaly in a client's line. According to the paper trail he should be 99% Ashkenazi Jew, but the dna shows on .3%. Upon testing others in the family it is obvious that the grandfather he knew was not his blood relation. So.. DNA testing is accurate. It is the "proven" genealogy trail that is not.

I've tested myself and numerous family members and found the opposite - quite spot-on! Be sure to upload your raw data results file to GEDmatch.com - it's a free service where you can match your results against testers using all different testing companies, not just the one with whom you tested. You can name the test anything you like, so there should be no concerns concerning anonymity. If your test doesn't match family lore... Family lore is just that! DNA doesnt lie! Enjoy uncovering the truth! :) On Tue, Jun 5, 2018, 7:29 AM Evelyn and Bill <floridamarbil@gmail.com> wrote: > In response to the post: > > I have done Ancestry & 23 and Me, DNA testing. > > I was always under the impression I was 1/2 Italian & it did not show = > that on either test.=20 > > Some one told me they only do the =E2=80=9CMother=E2=80=9D side = > =E2=80=93 not the father on these DNA test. > I find that hard to believe =E2=80=93 Is that true?? > > I would like to add that I took the Ancestry DNA test and I could not find > ANY results regarding my mother's side of the family. > > My grandfather was born in Havana Cuba in 1890 and his entire family, all > the way back to the 1700's were Spanish/Cuban.
