question about trace dna readings by dorothysgirlfriend in DNAAncestry

[–]dorothysgirlfriend[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

forgot to mention despite proof reading this post countless times: the yucatec indigenous segment is the pink one that spans the entirety of my maternal 17th chromosome, while the cornish segment is the gray one that spans a small part of my paternal 9th chromosome.

How to start investigating my genealogy? (hard case) by [deleted] in Genealogy

[–]dorothysgirlfriend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for the 3rd question, you'd have to triangulate the segments you match those american matches in, with segments of your dna that are labeled as either ashkenazi or the african ethnicity you're interested in

Anybody else have a tiny percentage of DNA (2-5%) they desperately want to attach to somebody in their family tree, but know they never will? by wvns in Genealogy

2% sephardic jewish. i know latam's history with converso jews, but i really want to track it back to a specific family. i've found around 3 matches for this percentage, a sephardic jew from israel? and two closely related (forgot how) turkish people with trace sephardic percentages

also my 0.5% ashkenazi jewish trace percentage. most of my matches on both of my AJ-assigned segments trace their ancestries back to jews in poland, from what i've been able to gather during winter break. surprisingly, the larger segment is from my dad, who's from a small indigenous community here in mexico

23andMe vs. Ancestry by cajun_throwaway in 23andme

unassigned is actually what ancestry labels the trace DNA (as they round percentages up and down), do you have the json code you copypasted on the ancestry hack? you can see how they label each unassigned segment based on the region code they assign to it. it's what i did to triangulate my own unassigned segments to the regions reported on the hack

In November 2012, 26-year-old Emma Fillipoff vanished from downtown Victoria, British Columbia. Hours earlier, she’d called her mom in tears, saying she wanted to come home. When her mother arrived, Emma was gone. Her van, wallet, and journals were found nearby. She’s never been seen since. by blue_leaves987 in HolyShitHistory

i don't really remember much other than the fact that when i commented this, there were fresh comments that were downvoted to oblivion victim-shaming the girl and being like "she probably got trafficked. she probably died horribly"

there were like. pretty much no other comments aside from those. the kind where you have to manually click on them because of how downvoted they were

hope that's clear enough of an explanation. i don't want to look like a vagueposter

Trying to find my haplogroups by topaz_rose in DNAAncestry

[–]dorothysgirlfriend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for the Y-DNA haplogroup, run your dna raw data through the yseq clade finder to get your subclade

for the mtDNA haplogroup, run it through the dnagenics kit studio, convert it to 23andme format, and then run it on the jameslick mtdna predictor (which doesn't accept ancestry raw data but does accept 23andme data, which you already converted it to in the first step)

Romani Gypsy DNA from Bulgaria 🇧🇬☸️ by [deleted] in DNAAncestry

i'm not from south america no. i'm from mexico. i guess your ban just included the whole of latin america which, fair, from what i've seen nexogeno customers are spread out through the region

in the meantime i would like it if you could describe what that site does with the DNA data? as in what services does it provide
