No, I was thinking of many generations. Cheers.

I've done the old records way too. Yet still DNA doesn't lie. I have very few European (Germanic, Latin, Nordic etc) or Scottish markers. Please explain why you think originally I would have that blood and why it's recent? Let's keep this an intelligent and amicable conversation please

I had mine done and so did my wife, there was a surprise for me but it showed geographical area as well and it said something about they could trace back about 1500 years or something like that. I was a clean 60/40 split and my wife was a 3 way split in various quantities. I don’t know if there are various levels of test or what one my Mrs paid for if there is levels, but it was pretty far reaching time wise and very exact location wise.

So by that you can take a child from a Malawian orphanage at 6 months old and he can be a linebacker for the Baltimore ravens once of age ? That’s all it takes ?

Yeah and what’s his background ??

All the above cannot make a 6 feet 4 100kg man capable of doing 40 yds in a hiccup over 4 secs It has to be there to be found

What about “the black Irish” ? Thought to be descended from Iberian stock rather than Celtic ? Derided as a myth that they are descended from shipwrecked sailors from the a Spanish Amada . Cheers.

The physical attributes of nfl players and nba players are most advantageously going in African Americans they aren’t in the main found in Africans why is that ?

You mean physical attributes created by nutrition, medicine, exercise, etc. It wasn't so long back we had a UFC HW champion born and bred in Africa.

You are talking about your recent genetic history which is obvious as your recent ancestors are from the British isles. I've had the test done about ten years back and they have their uses, but as far as your ancient ancestry, it just points out the obvious.

At a wild guess I’d say because of western lifestyle, health care , food, nutrition, education , sanitary conditions, etc being far superior than africas ? But I feel your question may have been rhetorical! LOL ! Cheers.

Good point and hopefully you know the history (Brian, Welsh safe harbour etc) but DNA doesn't lie. I have less than 2% markers from both combined.

Please can we keep this one of the good threads?

As if by magic lol

No fly's on you

Just ask seagurls, he'll tell you linage ,blood type ,what tribe you originated from ,probably oompah loompahs

FFS here we go. You'll lose them and told hound man will find them

You do know that you are of German or Nordic ancestry by default if you are of Welsh & Irish descent?

There was a jr x bull terrier type handed into a Irish pound or rescue came up on my fb feed don’t ask me why but it was a canny looking sort , with its bow leg/knock knees looked more suited to walking behind bill Sykes than earth work but just had a look about it .

Just doing a bit of this, started with my mum's side. I always thought that all my grandparents were pure north west England, Wales and Ireland. The DNA test was pretty clear on that, with NWE, Wales and Ireland markers only. Nothing Germanic or Nordic. Just traced back and both sides of my mum's line (grandad was Welsh and spoke it) ultimately all come from County Cork and Kildare. Earliest I've got so far is 1786. Bloody interesting. I'm gonna start on my dad's side soon but like I said, with the DNA results it's likely no different. This all started because I wanted to look into m

The art of confusion ! Trying to throw us of the scent that there the same person , by both acounts insulting each other oldest trick in the book

Lol I'll gain one when I 3 nil you on fox lol
