Sounds like you made that up for likes. As someone who is an Italian citizen born and raised and every generation of my family on both sides before are Italian born and raised too, it’s common knowledge that we can take DNA and 99.999% of us won’t show any Italian ancestry links. Just European links. There’s no such thing as Italian dna. Only dna markers they use from common settlers groups in Italy. Italy is a place where people migrated from France and Portugal, and mostly Middle East and Africa. This is how we get our many different Italian skin tones from light olive to very dark olive. Most of us will show French, Irish, English, Portuguese, Spanish, African, and middle eastern ancestry when taking DNA test. Mostly European. The Italian dna test only shows possible markers that very few of us have from early settlers in Italy. I think your story sounded delicious but is fake, or perhaps the source you got it from wasn’t truthful.

How did it go?

My grandmother, who was born in 1889, was adopted. We had no idea who her biological parents were. I had my 97-year-old mother take a DNA test. Thanks fo finding numerous 2nd and 3rd cousins, we were able to find out who my grandmother's biological parents were. A family mystery that had lasted for 130 years was solved thru the power of spit.

I'm adopted and did my DNA test through Ancestry. A little over a month ago, my Biological family found me through a match on Ancestry. I love my family that raised me so much, but I have enough love in my heart to embrace all of my newfound family too. I and my half-sister talk every day. My birth mom passed away a year ago but I'm enjoying getting to know the rest of the family through Face Time chats. Strange thing, I look A LOT like my birth mom. That's the first thing any of them say when they see me. MY real mom that raised me is very happy for me and is supporting me fully in all of this. In a few months, I'm planning on going to meet all of them.

For anyone who's taken a DNA test: check the results regularly, because the company you took it with will update it as it gets more data. I took one with 23andMe that said I was 92% Chinese, 7% Korean, 1% Broadly East Asian, and less than 0.1% Southern European. After a year and a few months, the results have changed: I'm now 99.8% Chinese with 0.2% Broadly East Asian and less than 0.1% Broadly European. Remember: you are only subject to the database the company has, and as its database changes, so too can your results.

DNA testing tells thel truth in your genes which is something people deny for the most part.

Ancestry DNA has been one of the greatest blessings in my family's life. It gave my mother closure (she was given up for adoption when she was younger and was finally able to get answers after 68 years due to adoption records being closed for 100 years in the state where she was born) and it connected us with other family that we were worried we would never meet. I know DNA results can often lead to heartache, but in the case of my family, there was so much joy.

At 62, Ancesry DNA test told me that my dad wasn't my dad. I was raised as a proud 100% Hispanic man. Family has direct roots to Spain. I look different, but my mom told me that I got my fair skin and blue/ green eyes from the ”Spanish genes.” It turns out that I'm 73% Scottish/Irish/English and 13% Hispanic and Native American. Ancestry connections led me to a cousin that told me who my dad was. He was a singer/guitarist in a country music band that traveled to honky-tonks all over the southwest US. He was married, but traveled alone and apparently enjoyed himself. I found two half-brothers and three half-sisters from three states, but sadly have only been able to contact one of my sisters. One of my brothers didn't reply to my effort, and the others have their mother still alive, so I haven't attempted contact. It's not my place to cause pain to anybody, especially for my own needs. After all of these years believing that I was full Hispanic, and my mom taking her secret to the grave, I sort of feel like Steve Martin in ”The Jerk.” 🤪

That's cool! I mean, not the Salem Witch Trials, but the historical connection. Also, it's funny- you said 9th great grandmother so I replied here instead of posting my own comment...Ancestry revealed that I'm the 9th great granddaughter of Patrick Henry through my maternal grandfather. And we always assumed his and other male relatives' Middle name of Henry was just a random middle name that had caught on and been passed down. But now I know. And the part that's not cool about all that is that my ancestor may have said "give me liberty or give me death" but he was also a slave owner on a large tobacco plantation. Too bad Grandpa Pat didn't hear the meaning behind his famous patriotic speech during the American Revolution.

I grew up thinking I was 100% Lithuanian (Baltic), but my DNA test says I'm only 53% Baltic. According to different DNA websites I'm part Russian, Finnish and broadly Eastern European (likely Polish/Belorussian) as well. Turns out my maternal grandparents, who were orphaned during WW2, were from wealthy intellectual families that I knew nothing about. Those kinds of people used to travel more, study abroad, marry foreigners and tend to be more ethnically mixed than ordinary farmers. There's still so much I don't know. DNA research is fascinating.

There is a much simpler reason for Brits to have N American Native blood. From the 1600's on Brits in the fur trade send their half native children back to England and Scotland to be raised as Europeans. Thousands of children were absorbed into British society. A large percentage of Brits no doubt have Native N American blood. Well known part of Canadian history.

When my parents died in 2010, I discovered that my dad was not my father. I do not know who was my father, though the evidence points towards one individual. People have tried to get me to take DNA tests, but I have no interest. For 56 years I called my mother's husband dad because that is who he was. I could not have had a better dad. To me, the other man was little more than a sperm donor. He did nothing to raise me, even though a letter that I found suggested that he knew about me. Any man can be a father, but it takes someone special to be a dad. I have no intention of taking DNA tests because I do not wish to insult my dad's memory. The man that appears to have been my biological father has died, as far as I can find out. I have no idea whether he had other children, and I am not bothered because they would be strangers.

I have alot of German and Polish genes probably on par with the British genes but what I am most happy about are the Shapardi Jewish, Bedouin Arab, and Native American ancestors that turned up . This explains alot to me because they are the ones I have always felt most connected to all my life. Plus the usual viking blood from the Scandinavian areas that most people with British dna have due to the viking invasion . I'm also related to Marie Antonette probably from my Austrian blood line. When it comes down to it we are all related. Brilliant stuff. Better than all my birthdays put together.

My mother swore before she left the hospital with her newborn that the baby had been switched. The baby she saw come out of her had thick, curly hair; the baby the nurses brought back had straight blond hair. My sister grew up to have blond hair and green eyes, unlike all the dark haired, brown eyed people in my family. She also missed inheriting neurological disorders from my dad's exposure to Agent Orange that plague the other four siblings. She refuses to get a DNA test because she fears it will reveal we're not related by blood and she was meant to be raised in another family entirely. This would mess up her sense of identity, religion, everything. The thing is, we grew up in the same house, she's my sister, blood or not, religion is her choice, and while it explains the genetic differences, it does not change her past experiences. Life is simply what it is, and we make the best of what we're given. Personally, I'm hoping to find out that I have another sister. I had a doppelganger growing up, people saying they saw me in the neighboring town, even got in trouble when people said they saw me shopping during school hours. I've always been curious if this was my other sister.

(Trust me, I have all my dad’s medical problems, the older we got the less alike we looked, and her family didn’t move into our town until we were both four.

I just did a DNA test, and found out I have an older half sister. She lives in France. My father appatently had a French girlfriend during WWII who got pregnant. He was wounded and sent home. The baby mama assumed he died and told her daughter this. She took a DNA test hoping to find her family. It turned up my cousin as having common Gene's. She contacted him and told him she knew her dad's name did he know him. He messaged me on Facebook. I messaged her and told her about my dad. Then I took a dna test. It came back that we share 23.3% of our DNA, meaning we are 1/2 sisters.

Found a long lost sister, who was doing her test while my brother was passing away in hospital. Sadly going from her very small adoption family to our larger one was too much for her. She decided to take time to herself, whilst understandable given the timing it hurt a lot.

This skews the results because think they are 100% stuff that they aren’t.

Could be true when you look at the history of the british isles including Ireland. In some parts of the UK it's difficult to distinguish between the DNA from the UK and the upper parts of the Netherlands and Germany. Because of the many migrations in the past (AngloSaxons remember?) So some people might have made the trip from Germany to England and then to Ireland in the past.

President Chaim Herzog of Israel was Irish.

When my son did a 23 and Me test we learned that we have Ashkenazim (Jewish) ancestry we were never told about. I was a teenager before I learned that my great-great-grandmother was 100% native American. Up to that point my very English grandmother had always told me that my father's side was 100% German (true) and that my mother's side was a mixture of English and Scottish-- ONLY. My grandmother's racism caused her to deny my true genetic makeup, while keeping her own Jewish ancestry a secret. I recommend 23 and Me above and beyond the other genetic testing kits because they give MUCH more information than just ancestry. We learned that my son has NO genetic predisposition to any serious illness, which was a HUGE relief to me. I was very concerned that he may have inherited the heart disease that runs on his father's side, or the degenerative nerve diseases that I have.

My uncle died of a sudden heart attack a few years ago. He had divorced his wife, but after many years had started seeing her again. They may have even been remarried when he died, I can't remember. His kids took one of these DNA ancestry kits, and found a whole line of half-siblings they never knew existed. It turned out my uncle had had at least two children with a mistress, and that those children now had children of their own. My cousins have met these new half-siblings, and they are corresponding regularly. Had they not been more open-minded about it, the situation could have been much worse.

She waited to come to the hospital when her leg was dead, literally. No feeling, gray, dragging it when she walks. All because she did one of those ancestry DNA test.

My wife did hers and she found she was 70% Scandinavian, 29% English and 1% Middle Eastern. The first 2 sort of expected but the last 1% got her on the hunt and found who in her family in the 1700 went to the middle east and married a local woman. It was fascinating.

I have a friend who sent off DNA tests to several different DNA centres and they all came back different.

KatieMarie because they are from the same database. Some dna test with combined ethnic groups that are relatively close to each other and make it one. Like Irish/British mainly how 23andme is set up. Or other dna test will be like ancestry. And go deeper into the region and blah blah blah. So of course it's not going to be the same.

And you were to stupid to understand why? I have done 2 tests and both came out 100% different.... one came up with (23andme) 100% Balkan.. and the other (FTDNA) 100% South East Europe... can you believe the discrepancy? OH WAIT!!!

Different in what way? Were they the same tests or did they cover different time periods. not all our ancestors show up but we all have a chance of having early bits of DNA from any one of those thousands of ancestors we all have...and share if you go back the right amount of generations. I have noticed different types of DNA tests are available and there are price differences so I image each produce a slightly different part of information or present it differently.. I would check out the validity of the companies that did the tests too...I can see this could be a great scam, sort of like modern day horoscopes or tarot were back in the day. The way I see it we are like any other population of animal, far enough back there was a single male individual very close to our DNA and a single individual that equally been the first female homo sapien,,,even if not that drastically different from its mother or father that weren't quite there yet but who ever the adam and eve were we all came from them so we are all cousins in some way if you could search all the name records properly we would be able to see it. There is actually an Adam and Eve, to understand more you'd have to do some study to see how this works, like I have done.

I found out I have no father. I'll be opening a church soon. Bring $$

I was raised by my paternal grandparents, the subject of my Mother was taboo and my relationship with my Dad was strained because when he married and had a family he left me behind, so I always wanted to find my Mother. Modern technology was a great help and when I was 40 I found her, she actually approached me first, I knew it would take time to get to know each other but was excited to meet with her & her husband, contact was intermittent but I thought things were fine. Things changed when her husband passed away, he was a baptist minister and turns out it was at his insistence that as my Mother she should get to know me, once he wasn’t around I got a rather terse email telling me that now he had passed it was no longer necessary to carry on with contact, she really didn’t want to know me, see me or speak to me again. This was just before my 60th birthday, so despite having 5 half siblings with families I am now a family of 2 myself & my son. Life really sucks sometimes.

A lot of Pandora's boxes are being opened.

I went to high school with a girl was switched at birth in a Wyoming hospital in 1958. Her real parents raised a Mexican girl, when the dad was dying of cancer, the father, mother and Mexican girl had their DNA tested. One of Deb’s real sisters went looking on the internet & public records for her real sister. She found Deb in Arizona. Deb got to meet her dad before he died. If this sounds familiar, it was on “48 Hours” about 2000. Hello from north east Montana. 10 miles from the Canadian border.

That last entry about the two families becoming friends and taking a cruise is awesome

"Shocking" is too strong a word. Shocking is finding out you're related to ELizabeth I or Hitler. Not some pleasant person who had no idea you were alive.

+Piotr: _"if you were related to Hitler why would that matter? You're your own person."_ I'm sure people you told would totally see it that way. Who wouldn't like to be associated with Hitler! After WWII everyone started naming their baby boys Adolf! Kidding, of course... After WW2 no one named their boy Adolf anymore, at least in Sweden (surely elsewhere too), where it was always a common/popular name before (including w/ royalty; our crown prince's name was Gustav Adolf). This is true to this day! Or so I think. [goes to look it up] Yup. There are currently 185 men in Sweden named Adolf. Compare with Lars: 89 046.

Another great video. As usual, entertaining and I learned somethingl.

Found my oldest paternal brother via Ancestry 3 weeks after my bio dad passed away. I now have four brothers and a predeceased sister on that side. She passed with two surviving sons so I also have two nephews. One is almost a doppelganger of my son. The other nephew is the same age as my maternal youngest brother.
