My wife and I and our son (him to help narrow down my wife's father's dna breakdown by % of korean/japanese/chinese/ yakut/ mongol/etc) all did the 23 and me test
my results are back and surprise, I am 100% european
shocking
but I wanted to find out info since I have none on my birth father
seems he was English of some type as well as 'broadly northwest european (basically germanic)
my mother's-whom i already knew since i grew up calling her my aunt- is confirmed as french/german with a haplogroup found mainly among ppl in alsace lorraine area -among franco-germans, and is in a high occurrence among mennonite and amish families. knew about that family add in as well
ouside of there, it occurs along the atlantic littoral (northern spain along france into Brittany and ny and normandy and among those thought to be descended from the pre celtic irish and britons. all ppls that are considered white though with dark hair and darker skin then other non mediterranean europeans.
that haplogroup is J2a1a1b with an age of more then 20,000 yrs
AND check this out! I have more Neanderthal in me then 98% of the sampled population!!! I always "win" at the strangest things
the highest number of neaderthal variants in the sample population so far is 387, I am at 327
yikes!!!! or I mean "yabba,dabba,do!"
