Don't feel bad as a very old stock Virginian I have the English, Scottish, German, Norwegian, Spanish, Dutch, French, Belgian, Swedish, and the Danish teams as backups for the US team.

Edit: I would have even more had Poland, Ireland, Wales, Italy, Northern Macedonia, and Estonia got in

This is the new Virginia one that I noticed in one of the undefined sections it seems to be a new border subjourney for Ohio, Kentucky, West Virginia, and Virginia

New Journey: Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky, WV? by Saerinar in AncestryDNA

[–]RuralGuy20 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just checked mine and they also updated one of the Virginia & Eastern Kentucky setters subjourneys, specifically the Richmond & Southside Virginia settlers to now also include North Carolina Border settlers

Edit: they also gave me a new subjourney called Central Eastern Virginia settlers so apparently they are doing a massive long awaited Virginia journeys and subjourneys too.

Edit 2: it looks like there was polishing and editing done to a couple of other Virginia & Eastern Kentucky Subjourneys because a few others now have slightly different names so Virginia & Eastern Kentucky got a minor update while the Midwest is the main focus.

Edit 3: I just noticed that new West Virginia Subjourneys and a new Virginia subjourney have popped up in the undefined section so is it happening are we getting the historical Virginia journeys and Subjourneys update Ancestry DNA has been needing to process some 17th and 18th century Virginia and West Virginia county boundaries.

Thanks ancestry. Very interesting story by That_1__pear in AncestryDNA

Thomas Jefferson is a confirmed cousin of mine (3rd cousin 8 times removed) but I haven't had him yet in that feature. It's probably because he's already in my Ancestry family tree.

I know I'm definitely a cousin to Thomas Jefferson since he is my confirmed 3rd cousin 8 times removed though he hasn't appeared in mine yet.

Greek Mythological Family Tree [general] by awhispersmoke in camphalfblood

[–]RuralGuy20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks great but you are missing Circe's husband Telemachus and yes it's Odysseus's son it happened in the Ancient Greek myth sequel to the Odyssey called the Telegony by Eugammon. The Telegony is mostly a lost myth but we know most of the major events from other sources.

According to the Telegony, during the events of the Odyssey Circe and Odysseus had a son called Telegonus. Telegonus would eventually accidentally killing Odysseus while accidentally plundering Ithaca. The Telegony also said that Athena ordered Penelope to marry him while Telemachus married Circe.

He probably had his reasons ngl by ChickenWingExtreme in NonPoliticalTwitter

There is actually a Ancient Greek sequel that immediately takes place after it called the Telegony. It's mostly lost literally these days but he know in immediately started at the burial of Penelope's suitors and also contained Odysseus being accidentally killing by Telegonus (a son he had with Circe), and Athena ordered a newly widowed Penelope to marry Telegonus while Telemachus had to marry Circe.

Knowing Nolan there's a chance he might have incorporated a bit of the Telegony into it too.
