Mine is similar. A true Mutt, the only part that makes sense is the Irish. A true Irishmen isn't drunk as long as he can still hold on to a blade of grass and not fall off the earth!
To tag on Aztngundoc22 post my daughter is 49% me, my wife looked at hers and was instantly disappointed that she wasn't related to me until I explained that!

I am 54% Browning, 25 % Remington, 16% Colt and 5% Other

Did the dna ancestry thing a couple years ago. Fast forward to a couple months ago and my birth mother located me(I was adopted at birth and never met my birth mother). Itβs been nice. My adoptive parents (who I consider my parents) were always supportive of me finding my birth mother if I ever wanted.

I did the Ancestry DNA test a few years ago. I've had 3 people contact me telling me they were related to me, or asking me if I was related to them. I've also gotten several emails from Ancestry telling me that they had found more areas of the earth that my ancestors came from.

Did one many years ago...Irish, Scottish and English...But my DNA is approximately 35,000 years old...It was interesting to see the DNA evolve from Africa to Europe...

Had a friend that claimed he was 50% Scotch
And 50% water.

Cartoon is semi-funny. DNA testing is for those who don't know who they are.
I'm AMERICAN, that's all I need to know.

You raise an important point. A lot of people in the US are "American" like you say. But if too many people come here at once who think they know their heritage and have a family line from one ethnicity, they may start to think of us as mutts or bastards and try to squeeze us out. America is a good place for people of mixed heritage. Where else can they go and not be marginalized into a menial career or a life in rock & roll or something? It doesn't have to be that one ethnicity comes here in large enough numbers to outnumber us. They could hypothetically start to form coalitions.

Not sure itβs wise to shake the family tree too hard . You never know what is going to fall out of the far away branches

I got mine tested a few years ago. I was several % points more Neanderthal than most people. Like this was a surprise. π

Yes............ agreed to do it based on a cousin's request for family research. Interesting results. We found out through the DNA and deduction that there was a cover up somewhere in the early 1900s.

In Arkansas the DNA of all people is the same.
I went into Arkansas couple of times as a child and now live close to the Arkansas state line so I might be contaminated also, therefore no DNA testing for me.
and remember.
You can choose your friends but you cannot chose family.

With all the research I've done on my ancestors, the DNA results were at least 95% accurate, and the rest are probably people that I haven't found yet.

I took the test at 23andme.com
I am mostly Irish, Scottish, and Welsh with some German. I have 3 percent Neanderthal DNA, some of the highest Neanderthal ever tested for.
Last year we were down visiting my girlfriends family in Atlanta. Her grandson Aaron is 14 years old. I explained to them that I had some of the highest Neanderthal DNA ever tested for.
Aaron replies "That explains a lot."

Mine came back negative.

Someone went grave digging. In my case it'll be a waste of money to learn I'm 100% Japanese.

Had a DNA test recently to find which medications work best. Didn't change much for me but some folks find out some meds will or won't work as expected.
And my "23and me" test came back Scotch/English "with just a whiff of Africa". No one mentioned Neanderthal so some folks are suspicious.

Here's my family in the cave in Scotland in December 43,276 BC
I am the little kid right front. We had such a wonderful Christmas that year.

Nice hair Allen!

Our daughter's MIL was contacted by her now adult son that she gave up for adoption when she was a teenager. So far so good. She has always felt guilty & now they can reunite.

Allen, it looks like your Grandpa lost his right hand to a faulty firearm!

I'm at 279 variants with more Neanderthal DNA than 91% of the population. Possibly explains why I was born so hirsute.

hirsute........Thanks for the new addition to my vocabulary susie!
I've always pictured in my mind that a Neanderthal's most distinctive feature would be a single eyebrow going all the way across the forehead. π
