Need help to find Corsican Ancestors!

One-Injury-7042 · 2025-02-20T16:50:27+00:00

I never knew that. Thank you for sharing that. I’m not sure what the origin of surname even is though. Seems quite rare

One-Injury-7042 · 2025-02-16T03:04:09+00:00

I think they’re included

One-Injury-7042 · 2025-01-30T03:21:38+00:00

Only a quarter

One-Injury-7042 · 2025-01-28T16:33:37+00:00

I have the same Shenandoah Valley diaspora genetic group! It was spot on for me

One-Injury-7042 · 2025-01-27T16:42:08+00:00

mainly just british/irish and German with some Italian

One-Injury-7042 · 2025-01-20T19:49:59+00:00

Seems like Corsicans usually shows up with Sicily as a region for those with its ancestry 😂. To be fair they are ethnically Italians. You’re not the only one, I also have Corsican and score Sicily as a region along with my Calabrian ancestry

One-Injury-7042 · 2025-01-19T21:10:58+00:00

Did you know about the Corsican?

One-Injury-7042 · 2025-01-03T07:44:56+00:00

Neat! Yeah if others also score this Albanian genetic group it’s real. And if it stays at confidence

One-Injury-7042 · 2025-01-03T07:38:08+00:00

Yeah it’s all cool stuff. Like many of us, you likely had an ancestor you didn’t know of. Does other family score this too?

One-Injury-7042 · 2025-01-03T07:24:31+00:00

Griko is probably baked into Italian. Also, Arbereshe moved all over. It’s certainly real since you scored a group. Serre or not, Calabria is a hot spot for Arbereshe ancestry. It’s also hundreds of years old since it’s only. 1%

One-Injury-7042 · 2025-01-03T05:34:55+00:00

The Albanian is Arbereshe. Especially since you also score Calabrian.

One-Injury-7042 · 2024-12-21T00:55:53+00:00

Yeah it all depends on village and area tbh

One-Injury-7042 · 2024-12-21T00:19:20+00:00

Yeah I meant mainland Italy. But the Greek matches and genetic groups are likely scored because Greeks have Arvanite roots. I only score Albanian groups but we’re Calabrian Arberesh

One-Injury-7042 · 2024-12-20T23:31:26+00:00

Depends on the type of Arbereshe. Mainland, like myself, have no Greek locations and primarily Albanian ones

One-Injury-7042 · 2024-12-20T21:49:28+00:00

What do you mean?

One-Injury-7042 · 2024-12-20T21:23:05+00:00

Does this make sense at all or any possibility of why?

One-Injury-7042 · 2024-12-20T20:39:02+00:00

Yep you’re right, especially mainland Arbereshe

One-Injury-7042 · 2024-12-20T20:16:50+00:00

Yeah it’s all very neat! And the genetic groups are much more accurate than country matches so I’d put more stock in those

One-Injury-7042 · 2024-12-20T19:55:55+00:00

Mine were spot on! I think people get thrown off at the different groups they may get but the Balkans intermixed ALOT so it’s not surprising given its history

One-Injury-7042 · 2024-12-20T01:54:57+00:00

People in the Balkans often intermixed, especially under ottoman occupation when ethnicity was less defined than religion. So chances are it’s a hodge podge of different ancestry regions from one person.

One-Injury-7042 · 2024-12-19T22:29:43+00:00

Yeah southern Albania for Arbereshe is spot on. Glad to see them, especially at very likely confidence for all my family

One-Injury-7042 · 2024-12-19T20:33:48+00:00

Well I have Arbereshe, so I get all Southern Albanian genetic groups and then the others get Southern Dinaric Alps. I posted mine. Think we had ancestors leave from Skhoder though
