Thanks sooo much for reacting!! I love your channel and I was hoping you’d react to one of my DNA vids one day. I would LOVE for you to react to my 4 generation video. It’s my daughter, my mom, my grandma & I. It’s been nearly a year since I posted the one you just reacted to so this newer one goes A LOT more in depth. It’s more about the results than the backstory. This one that you reacted to was sort of a channel introductory video mixed with family mystery back story mixed with results lol so I spent a lot more time talking about myself and my family mystery/backstory but the newer one dives straight into results. It’s kinda long because I’m breaking down 4 people but do please check it out & give us your take! I’ve also been wanting to collab with @nytn and we chatted briefly about it in her comments section & both thought it’d be a fabulous idea so hopefully that’ll be in the works soon! It’s a collab that quite a few people have been requesting on both of our channels. Thanks again & keep up the AMAZING work!! ⚜️⚜️
I enjoyed this video. You should also check out her video with results from her daughter, mother and grandmother.
I am part of this group of Creole people. This is super fascinating! Danielle is my cousin! ❤
We Creoles from Cape Verde also have Iberian DNA, Jews from North Africa derived from the Portuguese, Senegambia, Guinea Bissau, and other smaller ones such as Italian, French and English.
No such thing as Creole or Creole culture. They are of mixed blood and don't have a culture, but take on other people's culture.
I will never EVER understand why so many people on YouTube videos don't change their smoke detector batteries. It's just incomprehensible to me. Do you think this is how they're SUPPOSED to act??Noooo, they're not! Climb on up there and CHANGE the thing!
Yes I'd love to see you react to her other one. It was so cool that she was able to find her spanish ancestry through this and even family members.
Why did you interpret the .4% Ashkenazi Jewish as Iberian? If this identification is at all accurate (at such a small percentage, most geneticists would disregard it completely), you described Sephardic Jews, not Ashkenazi Jews. She has plenty of Northern European/Germanic, etc., heritage to make that Ashkenazi connection. While Sephardic and Ashkenazi Jews are very similar genetically, and in fact did intermarry quite a bit, especially after some Sephardic Jews escaped Iberia and migrated to places like Amsterdam and Germanic lands, since the results specified Ashkenazi, there’s absolutely no reason to change that category.
I found my Nigerian Yoruba cousin on ancestry DNA. I found her after I typed in Nigeria on the region match and found 3 Nigerian cousins. She looked just like my family. We are Afro Cuban and knew we were Yoruba having that religion and language still in our family. We went to Nigeria and met the family. I am Yoruba on my maternal line. It's definitely possible to reconnect.❤
Your initial definition of Creole is not correct. Creoles in Louisiana are not derived from Cajuns. They were 2 separate populations who spoke 2 distinct variations of French. Creoles spoke Louisiana Creole while Cajuns spoke Louisiana French. The grammar and syntax of the 2 are different. Though there is a lot of mixing in modern times, but historically, the Creoles and the Cajuns did not mix and often did not get along.
React to more of her videos!
I'm African American with roots from FL and SC (Gullah Geechee Corridor), and I have many (10 or more) with Yucatan Indigenous. I wonder if they read it as central American because deep south/South Eastern Natives genetic markers are more simar to central American and Mexican Indigenous peoples as opposed to other more northern North American Indigenous communities who's genetic ancestry has been collected.
Her Spanish Portuguese ancestry could also be French ancestry from Southern France along the Pyrenees mountains.
I have French Canadian ancestry and I also get Spanish/ Portuguese ancestry. My sister and I have documented ancestors from Southern France which is a region that has a lot of cultural and historical overlap with Spain on the other side of the mountains.
When the Conquistadors came to North, Middle and South America they didn’t bring women with them. Hence, there was a lot of Iberian peninsula ancestry introduced into the indigenous populations. Not so with Europeans. They brought women with them. That makes for a huge difference in the genealogical mix of the modern populations.
What's a half aunt? Wouldn't an aunt or uncle always be half due to 2 parents?
If you’re interested in another Creole descendant’s DNA test with an interesting story who’s done a lot of family tree research, you should look at the channel NYTN.
Any thoughts about how Sephardic Jew wrongly reads as Ashkenazi? I’ve done some family tree and I know my New Mexican ansestry is Sephardic as the settlement in Northern New Mexico are families that are documented that way. 23/me has us down as Ashkenazi but I have zero German/Northern European DNA.
Her family story was interesting and involved, I enjoyed it. It was the case that apart from Florida and Alabama, Spain sent settlers to Louisiana in the mid 1700s. Many of those were from the Canary Islands, but others from the Peninsula. Their descendants went on to populate the state, and still exist today. It is a little known part of American history, even though they participated in the Revolution in a significant way. Census records reflect that along with Military service pension documents found on genealogy sites. I match with those current day Isleños from Louisiana, by way of the Canary Islands, even though my maternal family route went from Gran Canaria to Cuba, then to Florida in one century.
I would like to see more reactions to her DNA videos. Thanks for sharing.
I love when two of my favorite YouTube channels crosses
It's nice to listen to someone who is taking the time to understand her results (unlike a certain d-list actress claiming to be 43% Nigerian).
You should check out another video she had just done where she tests her mother, daughter and grand-mother with their results. It was very interesting !
Please, do review that other video of hers w/multiple generations tested – & any other videos of hers that you find interesting – if you will.
No need to read beyond this point unless you want to know some of what I'm up against.
It looks like I'm also a mixed-mixed of various mixes; but, my dad was adopted & both parents refused to be DNA tested & have since passed away (my now late aunt & my sister also refused to be tested; but, a maternal 1st cousin & her daughter have tested, but with different companies); so, I've been getting my DNA tested with several companies, because that's the only way apart from mere observation that I can get any idea of my dad's background, & perhaps some more clues for my mom's background (some of which is already known).
BTW: My dad, sister, & I were all raised as White. YouTube channel NYTN made some videos regarding Melungeon (sp?) folk – on traits & squatting ability – & I/my-family-members fit most of the points covered.
So far I've received recent-ancestry results from:
• AncestryDNA
• MyHeritageDNA
• FamilyTreeDNA
• CRI Genetics
Also from CRI Genetics I got their Advanced Ancestry Analysis, plus their mtDNA test results.
Approximately due next month from FamilyTreeDNA are BIG Y-700 & Complete mtDNA test results.
As far as DNA-Matches go, at AncestryDNA I've got over 43,000 matches. Now CRI Genetics – which doesn't offer DNA matching – told me that separating ethnicity results by Parent-1 & Parent-2 isn't possible; but, AncestryDNA – which does do DNA matching – offers a way to do just that (or so they claim); so according to AncestryDNA's Ethnicities By Parent app, I'm able to group my DNA-Matches by Maternal & Paternal (as a known maternal-side relative also tested with AncestryDNA & appeared as a match); however, my closest AncestryDNA-tested Paternal-Side DNA-Match – initially billed as a 1st-2nd Cousin, 568cM across 22 segments @8% shared DNA – blocked me without response when I messaged her – & her family tree was rather short & seemed to be jumbled time-wise (my best lead = instant dead end).
It's been over a year now & the next two closest matches haven't responded other than to tag a link to their respective public tree which was already available to me (both initially billed as 2nd-3rd Cousins: one at 255cM across 12 segments @4% shared DNA; & the other at 188cM across 7 segments @3% shared DNA). All 3 trees have the surname Murphy – the most popular Irish surname, of course – & 2 of these trees share the surname West (both surnames being in that short tree of the closest match that's being tight-lipped).
My 7th closest match – initially billed as a 2nd-3rd Coz at 158cM across 6 segs @2% shared DNA – did respond to my message, but he was clueless about my family. A lady – initially billed as a 5th-8th Coz at 8cM across 1 seg @<1% shared DNA – was helpful in letting me discover a common ancestor between her & the gentleman listed immediately above [a couple both born in the early half of the 1700s, but with surnames not matching any surnames within the short trees ('though 1 far more recent first name did match one of these 2 surnames; but that's likely sheer coincidence)].
And at MyHeritage I've got 21,999 DNA-Matches, but no way to distinguish parental lines.
So, it's looking like the best I'll be able to do is to pool ethnicity guesstimations, look at haologroup migrations, weigh all this with some history considered, & use the AncestryDNA Ethnicities By Parent to see if I can perhaps get a general picture of where my parents came from & how they both ended up in California (where I was born – of found under a rock as dad would say).
So far it looks like I've got a bit of everything continent-wise 'cept Austrailian Aboriginy (sp?) & I've not got any Pacific Islander, per se (though some islands in the Pacific have come up).
MyHeritageDNA shows a few Northern U.S. communities – with high confidence – which I know my mom's side of the family fits into; &, they show the Southern U.S. including the entire Appalachias – with lower confidence – as a possible community (which doesn't fit anything that I know about my mom's side other than her ancestors fighting against the South in the South during the Civil War where we lost a few relatives – to diseases of all things… BTW: I've lived in the South for a couple of years now & I'm doing alright; so, they must have had it rough – or maybe my dad's DNA input is helping me cope better… Hmm… 🤔).
Oh wow, thats why my dad and aunt have a lil Ashkenazi, it could be from Spain. My mom's side to😮 Both my dad and aunt have the 1% Nigeria to. This was a good video thank you
Louisiana was Spanish from 1762 to 1801, which is when the Cajuns arrived from Canada (1764-1785) and when the Spanish government in Louisiana under Bernardo Galvez brought 2000 Spanish Canary Islanders (known as Islenos) to St. Bernard Parish, south of New Orleans. They were allowed to come into Louisiana in order to increase the Catholic population and to counter the English/American Protestant populations increasing around them. The Spanish were always part of the Creole White population and of course contributed to the Colored Creoles too so not rare that Spanish shows up in DNA results for people with history in Louisiana.
Honduras and Nicaragua had major business ties with Louisiana as their bananas came into the U.S. exclusively through New Orleans in the 1900s. There are still many Nicaraguan and especially Honduran populations/origins in Louisiana and at one point Honduras were the most numerous Hispanic group in Louisiana, not sure they still are as many Mexicans and others arrived after Katrina.
Interesting as always. Thanks
@ professional genealogist reacts- She just released a new video doing 4 generations of her family. One month ago, it was cool to see.
