Well, my story is a long one, so here it goes as short as I can make it. For 60 years, I believed I was half Mexican half Cuban. With my dad being Mexican from Michuacan, so basically Indigenous and Spanish. My mom being Cuban, with her father being from Spain and also her maternal grandfather being from Spain. Well, for Christmas 2019, my son and daughter-in-law exchange Ancestry DNA kits. When my son's results came back, he told me "Mom you are adopted." My response was,"What are you talking about?!" "No I'm not!" To which he replied, "in my result, there is no DNA from Mexico, Cuba, or Spain." My response was,"What our family lived in Spain for hundreds of years and never married any Spaniards?!" Yes, I was in total denial, nothing about what the DNA revealed was sinking in. For my birthday in 2020, my son and his family gave me an Ancestry DNA test kit. I take the test, and the results show 45% Greece and Albania, 21% England and Northwestern Europe, 17% Scotland, 6% Wales, 5% Ireland, 4% Southern Italy, and 1% Finland. No Mexico, No Cuba, No Spain. So, as far as I have figured out, I was probably born in Chicago (my mother was born there, and so are my half-siblings that I have found). I was adopted by my parents and never told. They both have passed away. My cousins (adoptive) all knew and never said a word because as far as they are concerned, I am their cousin. So I now say I'm a Culturally Hispanic American. Because you can not belong to a Mexican or Cuban family and not be proud of your Hispanic Heritage. I tell everyone if you want to take a DNA test, think of the worst thing you can think of that you would find in your results and if you can live with that take it, if not don't because it might just change your life. Mine sure has I was the only child of a Mexican/Cuban couple to being one of 8 half-siblings of European American parents. I have a lot of questions, and no one to answer them. My biological mother has passed, and I have not figured out who my biological father is or was.

If you take the test it shows you your relatives that have taken the test. Part of finding out who your father is or is not can be pieced together by seeing who you are related to on your paternal side. You could very well be full Cuban. Maybe your Cuban side are immigrants from South/South East Europe as your DNA suggests. That doesn't make you any less hispanic per se. Edit, I overlooked the part where you said that you know you're adopted. Very interesting what these tests can unveil.

I took one of these tests a few years ago and in that process I found out my dad is not my biological father. The man who was my biological father died from a massive heart attack at 41. In the process I gained two half- siblings, and I'm now closer to them than I am to my brother that I grew up with. I don't think I would publish my findings the way you have due to the sensitive nature. I don't know if my mother knows or if my dad knows or if this info would surprise them or do their 37 year marriage severe harm. I am also the only of my siblings who had remained close with my dad, so I would hate to damage that mental image of our relationship for him, and make him believe "none of his children care about him. " I also feel very much like Jenny, that humans are messy and I don't judge my mother or anyone for the choices she made as basically a child, at 18. I know I was still fumbling around and finding my way in the world at that age. And her parents weren't very good guides to her either, I feel like she was in a way just thrown to the wolves and left to find her own way. So long story short, this is going with me to my grave. Anyone I've told this to (coworkers, etc) have reacted very strongly and with judgements about my mother. I respect Jenny so so so much after this video for being so empathetic and non- judgmental. It's a very mature stance to take imo, and the sign of being able to really imagine yourself in someone else's shoes and empathize with their actions and not judge them harshly because we are all humans

Wow, I think it's super kind (and brave) of you to keep those findings to yourself. I'm glad you gained new close relationships with half-siblings. That's so very special. I have a half-sister from my father whom I tried to have a relationship with, but that went south. People are funny. I don't understand what makes them feel so self-righteous to judge. I don't judge my mom for falling in love with someone else while married to an abusive husband (even though my own father turned out to be a new kind of abuser). I was knowingly given the wrong last name because of societal pressure. I suffered some confusion as a child, having grown affection for my mom's ex-husband until my mom fully cut him out of her (and my) life. All's this to say, do I wish my mom would have done things perhaps a little differently? Maybe. Do I blame her for it? No.

Super interesting findings! Proud of you Jenny for sharing your story!!

Jenny, my parents are also from southern Zacatecas ❤ maybe we are distant cousins 😂 My traits were also concentrated in Zac. & into AZ & TX. I inherited abt 53% indigenous DNA which inspired me to learn about my family’s past. I connected with some elderly fam. members & learned how they had direct ties to the land & even an indirect role in the Mexican revolution & the raids lead by Pancho Villa. I feel like these Revolution stories were a distant dream written in a text book until now. I have so much appreciation for our indigenous ancestors & what they went through all those centuries. This excitement for our roots has really changed the narrative of indigenous ppl from negative to positive in my family especially amongst the white Mexicans on my mom’s side of the fam LOL.

The reason why your family in Zacatecas doesn't associate with indigenous groups is that most of them assimilated into the larger Hispanic/Mestizaje culture during the colonial era. It is one of the states with the lowest amount of Indigenous people (and those who identify as such are usually recent migrants from other states).

I took the Ancestry test a while back and it was interesting to see the results, the results have changed and evolved in the last few years as more people get tested and databases data samples become more rich. I also recently took a test with a different company 23.... and they gave me similar results, both 30% indigenous and 70% Europeans mainly Portugal and Spain. Ancestry recently introduced a feature that allows you to see your split origin maternal/paternal. My Mexican heritage shows up similar to Jenny from southern Zacatecas. I created a large family tree going back eight generations to the early 1700s using free resources from familysearch. The second company has a family tree that sort of builds on it's own to show the relationships with the DNA matches. A lot of the Spanish migration to Zacatecas was related to mining and later they settle there as farmers. If one day I bump into you guys in Queretaro I would be happy to show you my results and share some of my research experiences and challenges, who knows maybe we are distant relatives, my family name is Sanchez.

Link your results to your tree and make it public, then you will start seeing common ancestor matches and you can can see those connections with Thrulines. If your tree is unlinked or private you won't get the common ancestor feature. Public never shows living people, those individuals show up as private. Good luck to you both! EDIT: You should try to get your mom tested, plus a full and half-sibling. You will be able to better determine how your other DNA matches link up.

I feel like mexican families don't really talk about ancestry! And I think it comes from a place of traumas and complicated "entanglements". Secrets to keep up appearances. Rapes. Child marriages. Colonization. Family disputes. Absent fathers. It gets complicated so people don't talk about it and then the history gets lost. Is it just me that suspects this? Your comment got me thinking lol

I could relate so much to your story! My dad’s father side of the family comes from a “noble” line from Navarra. They were ridiculous since my grandfather was the first born they had great expectations for him 😂but he met my grandma who they considered a basic woman not good enough for my grandpa. Long story short my grandma had twins (one my dad) and my grandpas family firmly believed the babies weren’t my grandpas. Funny but I grew up in that family and heard my entire life how we weren’t really related to them and my dad’s real dad was a Japanese guy. I always felt such a strong bond to my grandpa and his grandfather (who I never met). I felt that if I was anything like anyone it would be them. So those comments about how he wasn’t my real grandfather were hurtful. Finally I moved the US and years later I decided to do the ancestry dna. I wanted to know once and for all. Am I Japanese?! 😂 It was an emotional decision that wasn’t easy. I was about to find out whether or not those rumors were true and if so, why did I feel that connection in my heart to my grandfather? My results came back… He WAS my dad’s father lol 😂 I am related through dna to other family members on that paternal side 🎉🎉🎉

My daughters and I took the 23nme test. There were no surprises. I came out 48 % Great Britain , 45% French and some German, Scandinavian. The kicker was their paternal grandpa was from Calcutta, India but they insisted they were not mixed. You only had to look at them to know the were. The DNA showed each of my girls had 12 to 13% Bangladesh and South Asian. Which makes sense. Grandpa is 50%, daddy is 25% si stands to reason they would be at least 12%. As my DNA was solidly in the pasty while Anglo-Saxon it was coming from dear old dads side. I already had 400 yrs worth of genealogy from my dad's side and 300 from mums so we knew what my DNA would show. It's the far far back you don't see.

I took mine a couple years ago and was really surprised. I can’t say it was completely accurate, but who knows… It said that I was 100% indigenous, then that it was actually 99% and 1% Spanish. I’m from the State of Guerrero, but according to my DNA my ancestors are all from Mexico City and Arizona in the US; Aztec and like 40% Hopi. I’m often mistaken for an Asian; particularly Filipino/Vietnamese, and because I’m from Guerrero I thought I’d have some Asian, but that wasn’t the case. That said, my father side are mostly white and my mom side has both cuz my grandpa was indigenous. Short story long, I started doubting that my father is actually my father, but don’t really care cuz him and I don’t get along to begin with. I just hope that if there are any secrets my mom will tell me one day…

My dna results were not as detailed as y’all’s and I wish they were!! I did it thru the University of Michigans research program for free which is great but now I’m wondering if I should pay for Ancestry DNA for a full breakdown. 🤔 Nevertheless, I was surprised to know I am only 28% Native America(dads family has been in Texas for over 4 generations and my moms side is from Aguas Calientes). I really thought I’d be more Mexican than that! 😂 Instead, I was surprised to know I’m 55% European. I knew we had some Spanish blood because my maternal grandpa is 2nd gen removed from Spain(his grandparents originated in Spain) and my maiden name is Hinojos which is a town in Spain. We also just confirmed my Grandpas stories were true that we are from a lineage of the King of Spain. Apparently the Kings daughter was sent on business to Mexico and was disowned and cut off from the royal family after she fell in love with the Aztec prince. So your joke about being an Aztec princess made me laugh. Now, how true that whole story is might never be known but it’s a fun possibility. 😂 The real shocker was the 16% West Asian-North African part of me. I’ve been out and about with my mom and sis when we were stopped by a random guy and asked if we were Persian. We chuckled and said no. Turns out he knew better than we did back then. 🤣 All that to say that I was raised in the Mexican culture and I take great pride in it and all that comes with it….even if my Spanish is terriblé! 😊 Thanks for sharing y’all!

You are a beautiful couple, and I found it interesting to listen to your family history! From your appearance, my guess was that your European ancestry would be way below 30%. But that was before I saw pictures of some of your relatives 😅 Kevin, without knowing that your parents came from Mexico, I still would've guessed your ancestry to be predominantly Native-American, probably from Mexico. Jenny, just from your appearance I would've had a hard time to guess your ancestral roots. I'm European, visited Mexico only once, for a few days, so please forgive my ignorance.

Hey GTO Lane! 😁 muchas gracias por tus lindas palabras, amigo. Saludos!

Believe it or not but pride is actually a bad thing: Proverbs 11:2 says, "When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom". Proverbs 16:18 adds, "Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall".

Awesome kids God bless you!

Change in topic but how do you get mail? Like packages and letters from US to Mexico.

we don't really get mail anymore, but if we do get anything, it goes to our parents' house and they hold on to it until the next time we see them. If it looks urgent or important, we'll facetime and open it via the video call to see what it is

I'm half Iberian, half celt-roman mestizo , another half berber and another one lusitan and phoenician

Cool!

Amazing, I'm Guatemalan, my parents weren't married so I don't have his last name. My mom said he was of German ancestry. My DNA says zero German. My results 55% indigenous and 45% northern Europe ( Norway Sweden Denmark England Baltic Russia) I was very surprised

@@EatBailaTravel I'm assuming people in Guatemala in the 1920's weren't familiar with Norwegian danish swedish Baltic people, which I have 8% to 5% of each, so some tall blond man must be German... Sort of not distinguishing japanese Chinese because they look similar

Perhaps your father was born in Germany bus his ancestors were from other countries of Europe as all Europeans shared his neighbor countries family history.

Very nice video, glad to see the realness and the honesty in looking for your genealogy, not just some superficial commercial nonsense kinda setup. I appreciate that you presented so much interesting information especially the maps. The indigenous population of the continent most probably migrated somewhere from northeast Asia as they bravely crossed continents around maybe 11500 to 15000 years ago. That's why many of the ancestry company results will show up as Native Indigenous "American" & North East Asian or even other way around because genetic samples are so closely related from that huge migration at least on the North. It was amusing when the lady said people say she looks Asian cause that immediately came to mind. Of course I'm not overlooking future migrations from Asia. Imagine my reaction when I read in the names(genalogies?) Chatinos and Chinantecos in the Oaxaca region. Figure that one out😁👍
