Got my results last week: English - 46.3% South Asian - 23.8% Ashkenazi Jewish - 15.7% Scandinavian - 6.3% North and West European - 3.3% Central Asian - 3.1% Italian - 1.5% From what I've already learned about my background from family members. The list is pretty much spot on, but culture wise, I'm as British as you can get.
In ancient times, the Mediterranean was a frog pond of Greeks. The Greeks had settled throughout the edges of nearly all the Mediterranean, from Greece, to Egypt to Spain to Italy to France to Asia minor etc etc. So it's no suprise that many Europeans will have a small percentage of greek in them. Why are people so suprised I will never know. You just have to open a historical book to realise this.
Nathan Tisdale why would you be excited about being English?!!!! Any way there is not really any definable English dna it's admixture because you guys were invaded by celts, Romans, Irish, then viking, then Norman's, also iberian celts after the first wave of Franco Belgian celts, also Danes and freisians, all this is genetic markers for the average white English.
Bob el Silencioso Yes, there is cultural ethnicity, too. But, of course, DNA testing certainly could not pinpoint that. There probably is some DNA differences between different European ethnicities, certainly a Dane is different from, say, a Bulgarian, BUT despite their claims, the ancestry DNA tests cannot yet really pinpoint that, either.
I got my DNA done by both MyHeritage and Ancestry. I found MyHeritage was more complete. Ancestry had about 5 listings but MyHeritage was fuller with more precise percentages. It listed Middle Eastern that I didn't realize was there. I figured there was Russian Jewish (Ashkenazi) and found out it was only about 5 or 6 generations back. The percentage of Balkan and Northern European was rather surprising. Then, from my mother came Sicilian, French and Greek as well. I guess I'm just a mongrel.
Why are there more precisely defined groups (English,Greek, Italian), as opposed to more loosely named one (North and West Europe, for example, which would put together French, German and Dutch, or Eastern Europe (Russian, Hungarian, Czech, etc., all together?), as well - I've been told that Poland should not be considered as part of Eastern Europe, but rather Central Europe. Thanks for any clarification.
I ve noticed that as well...i don't know why some certain countries are overrepresented...hopefully it is not politics involved...i know greece has been trying to present everyone or everything as greek for instance
I just know that myheritage clusters northern germany, netherlands and france in genetic groups that have disticly the same genes due to a special group of ancestors. That genetic clusters are different to the approximate nationalies shown here. So maybe the cluster Northern Europe because of that broader genetic group, that crosses the borders of these countries.
I have ordered mine. Apparently "myHeritage" is pretty accurate for those in Europe, just by watching many people's results. I got it for a really cheap price. The only downfall about these DNA kits in general is trusting a company with your DNA. DNA is a complete make up of who we are and with how far science has come i just hope it isn't shared for sinister scientific reasons. That being said, i'm taking the chance and can't wait to see my results 👍
I did a MyHeritage DNA test. I am. 56.3% English. 40.1% Irish, Scottish and Welsh 3.6% Nigerian (the percentage of Nigerian shocked me) I'm pale blonde and have blue eyes.
I think your DNA results are right even that you are blond a I think you have some Nigerian charcteristics that conects you with Nigerian people's like your nose and construct of your figure,and than your are a light dark.
@wild one That's really interesting, it wouldn't surprise me at all in the current political climate, if that turned out to hold some truth, may I ask do you know of any sources where I can look it up please. Things are so crazy now, I have to vet everything myself. Thanks.
@@nikgeo8690 central California. Thankfully my Danish ancestors broke the trend of Scandinavians going to Minnesota and opted for Solvang California instead. So grateful to them for that.
I wish more people understood that, yes you get 50% from your father and 50% from your mother, but you don't get a full 50. You get a random 50%. The more your family that tests, the more you know.
And you don't get exactly 25% from each grandparent. The 50% from your mum might be unevenly split between her mum and dad. I got 34% from one paternal grandparent (indigenous Canadian) and 16% from the other (northwest European). The other half was mainly Ashkenazi with some Russian mixed in. Being epically outbred made tracing which came from whom fairly easy.
@@joeagius66 Humans don't get around that much. Majority of peoppe are 100% something, unless they live in former colonies (such as Australia, Canada, USA, South Africa and all countries in South America)
Ben probably due to the minute percentage of Greek heritage, had some ancestors that went way back to the Roman empire of middle ages (Byzantine), where English Huscarls were employed as mercenaries (battle of Dyrrachium 1081) and some of them even established their own colony in Crimean peninsula, which was also populated by Greeks. Another possibility is that an ancestor escorted Lionheart's army to the invasion of Cyprus island and returned back home with woman and children. Fascinating, right? Kate seems to have some Jewish qualities I guess.
Stick the English onto Irish/Scottish/Welsh and that's exactly my results. I had no English whatsoever despite my family living here for generations, it's quite confusing.
@@futurez12 These results are not very accurate. My Heritage in particular is pretty notorious for throwing in false positives. Firstly, My Heritage is not the best for British (and Irish) ancestry; for that you should use LivingDNA as they use the largest sample size of modern British DNA and that makes their results more accurate (down to the county level). Also, these tests are not telling you where your ancestors are from; they are telling you the modern populations with which the DNA markers (alleles) are most commonly associated with. The DNA of English people in the west country is often much closer to Welsh, for example, than to DNA from Norfolk or Lincolnshire. Because My Heritage are not very good at picking up on these differences they seem to assign 'Irish, Scottish and Welsh' to people who are in fact English. Because they are merely looking for 'markers' of ethnicity, it is also very common for levels around 1-4% to be assigned to quite exotic ethnicities when in fact they are nothing of the sort. Many English people will carry genes that are associated with Ashkenazi Jews even though they have no Jewish ancestry. These kinds of tests see that ancestry and immediately assign you to that ethnicity as they regard it as a 'marker' of that ethnicity. In fact, you could just be an Englishman who carries an Askenazi Jew 'marker' within your DNA. It is very possible that the Iberian, Greek and Jewish results on this show are false positives. It is also very possible that they are accurate, but in my experience (I have done many of these tests) they often throw up false positives. They are pretty as a gimmicky bit of fun than serious science.

I just had mine done and it’s turned my world upside down. I don’t have the ethnicity that matches the genealogy. I don’t know how I’ll ever find out the truth, as the older generations are all gone. I took it badly at first, very shaken, but I’m coming to terms with the fact. But not ever being able to find out the truth will be difficult. But the fun part is that I used to live in the UK and my dna has turned out to be mostly British and Irish! I’m not supposed to be, but there it is.
I was born in India and all my relatives live in India. I got 88.5% South Asian, 8.5% Scandinavian and 3.3% North West European. I read that anything under 4% can be unreliable but 8.5% is quite significant and I have no idea where this came from.
Can I point out if you actually read the passages for each ethnicities! It is NOT a "English" category! It is actually a British category, it is a mix of Norman French, Viking, Anglo-saxons and ancient Briton's! This category includes Southern Scotland, Wales and England. The actual "English" DNA is under the North and West European which is "Anglo-saxon". It's a American company and they have a tendancy to mix up English with British.
I got 50% English 25% Irish, Scottish,Welsh. 25% Scandinavian With the English part All from northern uk and southern Scotland 🏴❤ as I’m from the northeast uk no surprise there.
My father is Scottish and my mother is German. On both sides I can trace many branches back 5, 6 or even 7 generations. Most of my ancestors stayed put where they were born. So I have expected to have about 50% Scottish (Scottish/Irish/English) and 50% German. But I am about 80% British (43% Scottish/Irish/Welsh and 36.2% English) and only about 20% "East"-European. I wonder if the result is acurate.
Actually did 3 tests and got different results. Always thought I was mainly German and Norwegian, but had less Scandinavian and German and more English and Irish and more Eastern Europe, and one test showed 6.5% Sardinian and 2.8% Italian! Who knew?
My DNA says I only have 2% Irish, but my one set of great grandparents came from Ireland. Their name was Mc Cormack. I am thinking the lower percent does mean something!
So far have done 2 different DNA tests. both quite different results. One showed 55% German and only 2% Scandinavian along with a bunch of other European ethnicities ; My Heritage shows 47.3% Scandinavian and 39.4% North and West European (I'm assuming it means German) + a bunch of other European ethnicities. It must depend on the algorithms each company uses along with the number of people doing the tests and where they are from.
With different company's you test with the results will differ from one another... It's based on the algorithm and how they do the tests... like I could be 50% English with Ancestry and 45% English with 23andme and 65% English with my heritage... I done a test with Ancestry haven't got results back yet...
That guy seems so impressed about his insignificant 3% greek ...i wonder is he aware of his 40% irish/scottish? I mean one of his parents may be pure irish or scottish
Having mostly English Wales an the rest Sweden Germany. I was not to suprised till my son traced my family line back to 1505 in England. It was awsome. Lots of notable people.
As a result of my test I have managed to see how we moved around Europe and the US. My sister came back with 2% Askhanazi Jew. Now managed to go back to 1071 now.
I’m 90% British and welsh and 10% Scottish and Irish on my heritage ... ancestry dna has me at 79% British welsh and 15% Ireland Scotland and 5 % Norwegian

The name Wallace may come from the Old French word 'waleis' meaning a 'welshman'; Richard Walensis was from the Welsh border area. But the Scottish form of the name may refer to a Strathclyde Briton - early records show the name was common in Renfrewshire and Ayrshire
John Toal - it’s not false, it’s correct at the time it was done (like mine was). The technology is still pretty new so it’ll get better over time and more detailed in its result.

Any royalty ? I have studied amateur genealogy for almost 10 years now and can tell you that almost all of us hail from the seeds of Charlemagne and so will most certainly be able to link back our family tree to royalty, we would only be unique if we couldn’t.
Entertainment. I'm most amazed at the Greek and Balkan results. It fits my theories that, it seems the British, could have once lived in Asia Minor during antiquity. Have to find out someday.
My brother is 56% english and 44% scandinavian. It's a strange result because there are absolutely no englishmen in our family for many generations back? Only danes and swedes. Makes you wonder what it means to be english?
My family are "purely" English going back to the late 1700's. However, my dna results show me as being only 52% British, 11% Scandinavian, 15% French/German, 1% Iberian and 21% undefined North-Western European. Following successive raids into Britain by the Romans, Angles, Saxons, Normans etc, it would seem that there are probably very few English people that are 100% English. The Welsh are probably the most British as their communities were less exposed to foreign invasion. But yes, in summary, and in agreement with you, to be English is a mixture of many European influences. Strangely, your brother is more English than I am!!!
I'M English and no English, but 47.8% Scandinavian. It is because we were invaded by Scandinavians battle of 1066, Normans, Anglo-Saxon, Jutes and Vikings from Denmark and Norway, we are you lol!
Apparently the Danes and the British are pretty much the same people. There is a guy on here with a channel called Survive The Jive and his uni in the UK and a Danish one looked at their dna and he said there was not much difference.
Danes (Vikings) and the English (Anglo-Saxons) share a lot of similar genes, but there are minor differences on the Germanic Haplotype groups. The database is mixing up the two. So, you are really Scandinavian.
81.1% North/Western European (Dutch/roots in Germany and France) 14.2% Wales, Scot and Irish (probably someone that cheated or just history when they left for normandy) 4.7% Finish (Don't know how)

I connected to a 2nd half cousin and she has a high forehead like me and similar eyes this is exciting
I've just ordered my heritage kit! Excited to see how English I am
Nathan Tisdale why would you be excited about being English?!!!! Any way there is not really any definable English dna it's admixture because you guys were invaded by celts, Romans, Irish, then viking, then Norman's, also iberian celts after the first wave of Franco Belgian celts, also Danes and freisians, all this is genetic markers for the average white English.

Archibald Maule Ramsay no just telling it as it is,
Archibald Maule Ramsay yup 🙄
EXTREME GLB and you’ve been reported.
I'm from Alabama, USA, and I am 86% English. It's wild that I am more English than someone from England.
I'm American and had no clue as to my ethnicity. My Heritage results: 48% Scandinavian/ 44.2% Irish-Scottish-Welsh/ Italian 4.6%/ Finnish 3.2%.
There is no such thing as Italian ethnicity. Italian can be anything from Germanic in the north to Greek in the heel. You've been hoodwinked.
Bob el Silencioso Yes, there is cultural ethnicity, too. But, of course, DNA testing certainly could not pinpoint that. There probably is some DNA differences between different European ethnicities, certainly a Dane is different from, say, a Bulgarian, BUT despite their claims, the ancestry DNA tests cannot yet really pinpoint that, either.
I'm from South-east England and I got 73% Scandinavian, 23% Europe West, 2% Great Britain & 2% Finland/Northwest Russia...
Ahh, Finnish, that's dope.
Soo most of your ancestors are Scandinavian (Norwegian, Viking is a mixture anyway). Cool. Go visit, the air is probably nicer ☀🍃
I got my DNA done by both MyHeritage and Ancestry. I found MyHeritage was more complete. Ancestry had about 5 listings but MyHeritage was fuller with more precise percentages. It listed Middle Eastern that I didn't realize was there. I figured there was Russian Jewish (Ashkenazi) and found out it was only about 5 or 6 generations back. The percentage of Balkan and Northern European was rather surprising. Then, from my mother came Sicilian, French and Greek as well. I guess I'm just a mongrel.
Being a mongrel than being inbred for human beings.
Yh myheritage is better for Europe
The balkan and greece were part of the ottoman empire hence the middle Eastern connection
Would it be cool if they visited those recently discovered relatives in person.
Got one for myself this year and just waiting results.
Why are there more precisely defined groups (English,Greek, Italian), as opposed to more loosely named one (North and West Europe, for example, which would put together French, German and Dutch, or Eastern Europe (Russian, Hungarian, Czech, etc., all together?), as well - I've been told that Poland should not be considered as part of Eastern Europe, but rather Central Europe. Thanks for any clarification.
I ve noticed that as well...i don't know why some certain countries are overrepresented...hopefully it is not politics involved...i know greece has been trying to present everyone or everything as greek for instance
I just know that myheritage clusters northern germany, netherlands and france in genetic groups that have disticly the same genes due to a special group of ancestors. That genetic clusters are different to the approximate nationalies shown here. So maybe the cluster Northern Europe because of that broader genetic group, that crosses the borders of these countries.
I have ordered mine. Apparently "myHeritage" is pretty accurate for those in Europe, just by watching many people's results. I got it for a really cheap price. The only downfall about these DNA kits in general is trusting a company with your DNA. DNA is a complete make up of who we are and with how far science has come i just hope it isn't shared for sinister scientific reasons. That being said, i'm taking the chance and can't wait to see my results 👍
I did a MyHeritage DNA test.
I am.
56.3% English.
40.1% Irish, Scottish and Welsh
3.6% Nigerian (the percentage of Nigerian shocked me) I'm pale blonde and have blue eyes.
Like Paris Jackson and Vanessa Williams, both beautiful women.
It's only 3.6%.

I think your DNA results are right even that you are blond a I think you have some Nigerian charcteristics that conects you with Nigerian people's like your nose and construct of your figure,and than your are a light dark.

Kate and Laura look so much alike, they could be sisters. What a crazy world.
It is a great thing to do! We are all family..
I wish more people understood that, yes you get 50% from your father and 50% from your mother, but you don't get a full 50. You get a random 50%. The more your family that tests, the more you know.
I got full 40 irish 41 percent slovak and 14% of craziness makes no sense and 5% british. I'm Welsh scottish and Balkans what the heck is that?
And you don't get exactly 25% from each grandparent. The 50% from your mum might be unevenly split between her mum and dad.
I got 34% from one paternal grandparent (indigenous Canadian) and 16% from the other (northwest European). The other half was mainly Ashkenazi with some Russian mixed in. Being epically outbred made tracing which came from whom fairly easy.
Could the Greek be from Roman stock?

Mesopotamian KurdishGirl youre goung to se the results in 6 weeks
Did you do it? If so, what are your results!
Ben probably due to the minute percentage of Greek heritage, had some ancestors that went way back to the Roman empire of middle ages (Byzantine), where English Huscarls were employed as mercenaries (battle of Dyrrachium 1081) and some of them even established their own colony in Crimean peninsula, which was also populated by Greeks. Another possibility is that an ancestor escorted Lionheart's army to the invasion of Cyprus island and returned back home with woman and children. Fascinating, right? Kate seems to have some Jewish qualities I guess.
Mine told me that I'm,
50 percent Irish, Scottish and Welsh,
30 percent Scandinavian,
20 percent English
Stick the English onto Irish/Scottish/Welsh and that's exactly my results. I had no English whatsoever despite my family living here for generations, it's quite confusing.
@@futurez12 These results are not very accurate. My Heritage in particular is pretty notorious for throwing in false positives. Firstly, My Heritage is not the best for British (and Irish) ancestry; for that you should use LivingDNA as they use the largest sample size of modern British DNA and that makes their results more accurate (down to the county level). Also, these tests are not telling you where your ancestors are from; they are telling you the modern populations with which the DNA markers (alleles) are most commonly associated with. The DNA of English people in the west country is often much closer to Welsh, for example, than to DNA from Norfolk or Lincolnshire. Because My Heritage are not very good at picking up on these differences they seem to assign 'Irish, Scottish and Welsh' to people who are in fact English. Because they are merely looking for 'markers' of ethnicity, it is also very common for levels around 1-4% to be assigned to quite exotic ethnicities when in fact they are nothing of the sort. Many English people will carry genes that are associated with Ashkenazi Jews even though they have no Jewish ancestry. These kinds of tests see that ancestry and immediately assign you to that ethnicity as they regard it as a 'marker' of that ethnicity. In fact, you could just be an Englishman who carries an Askenazi Jew 'marker' within your DNA. It is very possible that the Iberian, Greek and Jewish results on this show are false positives. It is also very possible that they are accurate, but in my experience (I have done many of these tests) they often throw up false positives. They are pretty as a gimmicky bit of fun than serious science.

American history comes from Europe? Our history is much more than a bunch of old English white guys and it started way before they ever showed up. Nothing against Europeans, mind you. My grandparents came from Europe.

I just had mine done and it’s turned my world upside down. I don’t have the ethnicity that matches the genealogy. I don’t know how I’ll ever find out the truth, as the older generations are all gone. I took it badly at first, very shaken, but I’m coming to terms with the fact. But not ever being able to find out the truth will be difficult. But the fun part is that I used to live in the UK and my dna has turned out to be mostly British and Irish! I’m not supposed to be, but there it is.
What background were you hoping for?
They should have their relatives on tv and have a small meetup. That be awesome
I was born in India and all my relatives live in India. I got 88.5% South Asian, 8.5% Scandinavian and 3.3% North West European. I read that anything under 4% can be unreliable but 8.5% is quite significant and I have no idea where this came from.
Some Viking ancestor
The aryan connection?
I got 20% Scandinavian and I’m Pakistani weird isn’t it?
You probably have a British great great grandparent.
Wow she is 76% english omg she is real english girl
Can I point out if you actually read the passages for each ethnicities! It is NOT a "English" category! It is actually a British category, it is a mix of Norman French, Viking, Anglo-saxons and ancient Briton's! This category includes Southern Scotland, Wales and England.
The actual "English" DNA is under the North and West European which is "Anglo-saxon".
It's a American company and they have a tendancy to mix up English with British.

25% Irish, Scottish,Welsh.

Hola 👋
Who keeps the data , that's always my worry
My Dna sounds similar to Ben although havent tested but parents from Birmingham and Welsh on my mums side.
He is a Native Briton?
Am I suspicious of those who do not want to dna tests a bit.
My father is Scottish and my mother is German. On both sides I can trace many branches back 5, 6 or even 7 generations. Most of my ancestors stayed put where they were born. So I have expected to have about 50% Scottish (Scottish/Irish/English) and 50% German.
But I am about 80% British (43% Scottish/Irish/Welsh and 36.2% English) and only about 20% "East"-European.
I wonder if the result is acurate.
I'm 66.5% Welsh, Irish and Scottish
26.2% Scandinavian
7.3% English
I was born and raised in England!
So what would you identify as?
@@aadamkhan5217he identifies as brown
Actually did 3 tests and got different results. Always thought I was mainly German and Norwegian, but had less Scandinavian and German and more English and Irish and more Eastern Europe, and one test showed 6.5% Sardinian and 2.8% Italian! Who knew?
@Scott - I thought that also, but I had someone else look at my brother's results when 3% French/German came up and they confirmed definitely French.
My DNA says I only have 2% Irish, but my one set of great grandparents came from Ireland. Their name was Mc Cormack. I am thinking the lower percent does mean something!
Is entirely possible that over time your family had moved into Germany and Norway and from there to wherever you live now.
So far have done 2 different DNA tests. both quite different results. One showed 55% German and only 2% Scandinavian along with a bunch of other European ethnicities ; My Heritage shows 47.3% Scandinavian and 39.4% North and West European (I'm assuming it means German) + a bunch of other European ethnicities. It must depend on the algorithms each company uses along with the number of people doing the tests and where they are from.
With different company's you test with the results will differ from one another...
It's based on the algorithm and how they do the tests... like I could be 50% English with Ancestry and 45% English with 23andme and 65% English with my heritage... I done a test with Ancestry haven't got results back yet...
So nice to see family from Soo far away
I’m American born, in the deep South.

Well, with your name (if that is really your name), not surprising.
The name Wallace may come from the Old French word 'waleis' meaning a 'welshman'; Richard Walensis was from the Welsh border area. But the Scottish form of the name may refer to a Strathclyde Briton - early records show the name was common in Renfrewshire and Ayrshire

Any royalty ? I have studied amateur genealogy for almost 10 years now and can tell you that almost all of us hail from the seeds of Charlemagne and so will most certainly be able to link back our family tree to royalty, we would only be unique if we couldn’t.

My brother is 56% english and 44% scandinavian. It's a strange result because there are absolutely no englishmen in our family for many generations back? Only danes and swedes. Makes you wonder what it means to be english?
My family are "purely" English going back to the late 1700's. However, my dna results show me as being only 52% British, 11% Scandinavian, 15% French/German, 1% Iberian and 21% undefined North-Western European. Following successive raids into Britain by the Romans, Angles, Saxons, Normans etc, it would seem that there are probably very few English people that are 100% English. The Welsh are probably the most British as their communities were less exposed to foreign invasion. But yes, in summary, and in agreement with you, to be English is a mixture of many European influences. Strangely, your brother is more English than I am!!!
I'M English and no English, but 47.8% Scandinavian. It is because we were invaded by Scandinavians battle of 1066, Normans, Anglo-Saxon, Jutes and Vikings from Denmark and Norway, we are you lol!
Apparently the Danes and the British are pretty much the same people. There is a guy on here with a channel called Survive The Jive and his uni in the UK and a Danish one looked at their dna and he said there was not much difference.
Not quite right., Danes & the English (Anglo/Saxons) and even then much of England has large celtic DNA populous.
Danes (Vikings) and the English (Anglo-Saxons) share a lot of similar genes, but there are minor differences on the Germanic Haplotype groups. The database is mixing up the two. So, you are really Scandinavian.
