    I lived in Asia for nine years (in Korea and Japan) and also traveled extensively throughout Asia. It is not very common at all for people of Asian descent to take DNA tests. Babies who were adopted from countries like China, Korea, Vietnam, the Philippines, etc, find it almost impossible to get DNA matches, so I’m not surprised at all that this woman had the same experience.

    The thing about not getting matches is that it will not be the experience of your matches, because they will find you already there when they come later.

    Shame runs deep in religious societies, having children adopted, given up, for whatever reason, not wanting to take accountability, nor wanting to 'dig' or let out 'family secrets'. The shame is probably the largest in especially Catholic societies but in all 'religious' societies. The Church have a lot to answer for, or those who created 'religion', for whatever purpose. So many have suffered unnecessarily and children who never got to know their parents. It is a crime to be honest. Denying these men their true heritage is criminal whichever way we look at it. It is probably a slight shock for the brother and his family but how can you not want to embrace your own blood? Then again, many of us have family who know about us but equally don't care, so one should not be to surprised. Just a shame we cannot as a society come together better than we do. x

    Hey! Just wanted to say I enjoy your videos ... and on the note of finding someone from the Caribbean ... many of the Caribbean islands have a history that includes most, if not all of the countries that you mentioned for this guy, so, I hope you were very careful about fact checking everything ... without knowing the story or having watched the entire episode, I can say, his father may not have been from Jamaica, but, he may have lived there, or, whoever told him that his father was from Jamaica might've had the general region correct. I live in the Caribbean, and, a lot of people move back and forth between the islands quite regularly, and, I've also been to the UK and other countries and when I tell them which country (island) I'm from, they would ask which part of Jamaica or Barbados is that? I've also met and heard of a lot of individuals who've moved, or, whose families moved here from many other countries in the world (Sri Lanka, Algeria, China, and others) more recently, so, I personally wouldn't rule out anything.

    I was surprised when he said Black - I saw him as an Indonesian-European mix (several models in Bali are mixed and quite successful, and their eyes are similar to his - the mouth and chin not so much), so Seychelles, and Asian Creole makes a whole lotta sense.

    I don't like how this show presents its stories. First, she drags it out in a weird way and then draws a dinky family tree on paper. Nothing professional and official to present to the participants. Then she doesn't finish some of them like this one.

    There was a study that suggested virtually 100% of living Europeans and people of European descent are direct descendants of King Edward 3rd of England. By 1750 it was very difficult to find even minor nobles which were not easily traceable back to John of Gaunt through marriages from his lines into noble houses not just in England, but France, Spain, and many other nations and regions.

    Europe would go through population booms and crashes. Royal/noble houses usually expanded fairly consistently so as commoner populations crashed, they were often replaced and replenished with overflow from royal and noble houses.
