DNA Confusion - Not to mention Saxons, Romans, Picts, Gales, Indians, and
others who have lived in the British Isles over the centuries. This very fact
adds richness to the story our family trees share.Then you have Englishmen,
Irishmen, and Scots who settled overseas and intermarried with local
inhabitants and then brought their families back - American Indians, Maylay,
Chinese, Japanese, Afghans, etc. What a stew mix.
A classic story illustrating this is that of an Indian upper class noblewoman
who married an Englishman who later emigrated to the wilds of the American
west, settling in Cedar City, Utah.
Trying to match DNA reports with names researched and figure out how that pesky
Inuit DNA got in your genes is quite interesting.

There are parts of the UK that are still mostly Scandinavian, and there were a

I had similar DNA inconsistencies. Ancestry reported primarily Scandinavian,
Irish and Western European. MyHeritage reported English and
Irish/Scottish/Welsh. The only possible explanation I have found is from a
couple of sources: They say that there can be a strong Scandinavian impact in
England based on the large migrations in the 8th through the 11th centuries. I
have no idea if this is a valid reason for the differences.

Hi Kevin
Join the club-I had my DNA test results from MyHeritage last week. They gave no
indication of my English ancestors for which I have documented evidence. Both
my maternal and paternal ancestors were English going back to at least to
1750. The DNA profile for England was 0. I intend to cross check results with
another DNA profiler.

Kevin -
This has been discussed before and, as I remember, the answer is that the
autosomal results are too massive to include in Legacy. Plus, they would be
difficult to interpret in Legacy. Putting the lengthy raw results into Legacy
would swell the files unacceptably.

Hello,
I have the results from a Myhertiage DNA test. I have one for myself and my
wife. How do I go about adding this to my Legacy family tree? The DNA test was
an autosumal test but I don't see that listed on the add DNA screen.
The results are rather intriguing and I have no idea how far back the tests
would go back to but as far as I can see the test results don't match the
research I have (I am back to 1780). I find no North African, Nigerian nor
Finnish connection in my direct line ancestors. I agree with the English
portion though :). It is a little bit surprising not to find any Celtic markers
given that my name is Ferguson, my paternal grandmother was MacDonald and I
have documented proof of Scottish kin on my mother's side. It is all rather
perplexing and I have no idea why it should be so puzzling. My father's
ancestors didn't even leave the county of their births for 300 years!
Any assistance would be greatfullly received.
Best regards

Hi All,
I'm having issues with the MyHeritage DNA tests also. I've been researching for
25+ years and basically know that my ancestors came from Ireland, Germany and
French/Canada (France). MyHeritage is showing English as the majority, East
European, Iberian Pen, North African and Nigerian. Have heard 10 to 12 stories
that MyHeritage DNA tests aren't what their said to be, that the people who've
had the test done also had Ancestery and 23&Me done with the latter 2 showing
correct ancestory line. Don't know if I;ve been duped or not, but leaning that
way. Sorry I didn't go with Ancestery or 23&Me.
