Your recent African ancestry tells a story too. It reflects the Spanish activity in the Atlantic Slave Trade in the 19th century. The Spanish picked up slave trading post-Haitian Revolution to PR and Cuba.

[@jotalc8678]

La mayoría de los negros de Puerto Rico ya existían en la isla antes de la Revolución Haitiana, los esclavistas franceses y británicos los vendían en San Juán.

Puerto Rican mom and African American dad! My ancestry results are 66% African, 32% European and 2% Native American (indigenous puerto rican according to ancestry dna).

[@amanintheice632]

That's soo cool.

My results with DNA Ancestry: 18% Indigenous Puerto Rican 🇵🇷 28% Spain 19% Portugal 25% rest of Europe (10% Basque, 5% Scotland, 5% Jewish, 2% Sweden & Denmark, 2% France, 1% Ireland) 10% African (3% Senegal, 3% Cameroon, Congo & Western Bantu Peoples, 2% Nigeria, 1% Mali, 1% Northern Africa) Needless to say, very proud of those results 😁. Blessings from Cupey, San Juan, Puerto Rico 🇵🇷.

[@char08fal]

I have a lot of Cuban, Puerto Rican and Jamaican matches on Ancestry. We've been trying to find the actual connection.

[@TaiBreland]

I traced in my ancestry 5 generations back and my 5th great grandmother was in St Thomas in 1817 (slave registry) ... I’m questioning if my ancestors are from Jamaica, or they just stopped there.

[@char08fal]

@@TaiBreland Same with mine. Are you on facebook? There are facebook groups where they discuss the movement of slaves between islands/S. America and the US. They've been pretty insightful and helpful so far. I joined them since I knew nothing except Tennessee and Arkansas until I did Ancestry and found surprises smh

[@beejay112582]

The Taino Tribe were across The Greater Antilles- Cuba, PR,Jamaica,Haiti, DR are all a part of that- the connection may be there love.

most people from latin america are part indian which is technically ASIAN but they will never admit they are part asian because its not fashionable.

[@truthbtold8040]

We luv our Puerto Rican brothers and sisters. I have just about the same estimates but a bit more European.

[@beejay112582]

It makes sense for the natives in South America. The Tainos were the Taino tribe of the Arawak peoples and they say our tribe have roots in the Amazon.

Recently did the DNA test and these were my results 69% european, Taino 19%, African 9%, middle eastern 3%

[@kevinjulia2852]

No offense intended, and I'm not sure what DNA test you took, but there's no taino DNA strand according to the genetics community other than the arawakan people of South America. And it would be listed as native American with a breakdown of possible indian tribes.

[@newlevelgraphicsdavidframe2870]

Taino came from South America to PR That is the Indigenous Eastern South American part. The Irish/Scottish, Brit is because of how Spain was populated in primitive times. Spain was populated by Ireland in the north"the Celts" and from the south by the "Mors" that crossed the one mile stretch of the Mediterranean at the straight of Gibraltar the two mixed and made the "Celtiberos" The Romans came in for about 500 years also then after them the Mors came again and controlled the lower portion od Spain

[@petrosortiz3828]

Don’t forget the Iberians in South and Eastern Spain 🇪🇸.... Celts in the interior and North ..... The Romans wrote both were distinct... Iberians were more Mediterranean as they were influenced by the Greeks and Carthaginians

Hello Natalia, I Saw your 23 and me DNA results I enjoyed your video. As for me my parents are Puerto Rican and they're parents are also from the island. I did my DNA and it turns out I'm 68% Greek, 30% Roman Celtic (meaning Nordic,Germanic, Irish). 20% Corsican sicilian. As it turns out I don't have spanish DNA lmao. I took 3 different DNA test just to be sure they didn't make a mistake. As it turns out they all came back the same. I saw on your video that yauco was on your list of potential ancestry. Well I am from yauco and as it turns out, yauco was predominantly european settler's. The town flag says on it the City of Corso. Never really ever read it until I researched. As it turns out the city is composed of families from Italy, Spain, Scottish, Irish, Greeks . And Galicia was a area where Nordic Germanic tribes lived Long before Spain got it's name from the the Roman Emperor Caeser.

[@passport3763]

Tu familia probableme llego durante la cedula de gracias del siglo 19 Your family probably immigrated during the royal decree of grace of the 19th century. One of my clases in UPR said that there are a lot of corsician descendant people in puerto rico and showed us a really interesting video on it.

[@amanintheice632]

I think This is very interesting, there's some towns in PR that have alot of European decent let's say Lares have alot of french Naranjito Irish, Guayama and Ponce German and so and so.

[@passport3763]

@@amanintheice632 I believe that may be because of the royal decree of graces from 1815 which if you didn’t know Puerto Rico used to be majority black and indigenous peoples and so the spanish crown as a way of changing the populations racial makeup, imcentivised immigration from other countries, (I believe asian countries were included as well) but I digress it led to a lot of immigration to Puerto Rico from European countries.

[@doubleutee2100]

@@passport3763I'm unsure about Island Puerto Ricans, but I'm under the belief that so many American Puerto Ricans don't realize the accuracy of what you're stating. There are many combinations of Puerto Ricans where the Iberian peninsula doesn't always dominate. It's good you mentioned this.

[@colinchampollion4420]

This woman is an Afro-Latina😃!

[@tonyperez2204]

Hey. So your ancestors are from Galacia, you should drink Abarino grapes from that area. It's really good white wine. Riax Bias is the best area. Good video.

[@goodaimshield1115]

Portugal is just western Spanish. Galicians and Asturians, Northwestern SPaniards, repopulated today's Portuguese territory and western Spain. It is not that Galicia is close to Portuguese territory, but the other way around. Portuguese and people from Western Spain come from Galicians and Asturians. That's the Portuguese dna, which is in reality Northwestern Spanish. Most poeple going to America were people from Extremadura (Western Spain), and in the latest centuries, Galicians (North Western Spain). And that's the suppopsedly "Portuguese" ancestry.

[@YUCAYEQUE]

Keep in mind many Canarians share very similar DNA with Portuguese as well.

[@dbulc5171]

Hmm..23 and me did an update this year? Why didn't mine change? My Ancestry DNA changed a lot though! I'm now 30% Balkan, which was very surprising and they also added a little Greek. Apparently my family is a lot more mixed than I thought lol

[@johncarrasquillo7664]

Hey hey hey i think we are related 4-6 cousins yay...i just did 23 & Me because of your review... so many things to digest, from my Ancestry DNA I found my bio fathers family (Chevere/Martinez/Rivera)❤️❤️❤️. Looks like we’re connected from that family...this journey is so exciting both my parents passed away so either way im happy I did this test.. thanks for your reviews

[@rmaha1965]

I just checked to see if there were any changes from my results from last year and it said I was 8% more Neanderthal than most others in my group. Explains a lot.

[@001islandprincess]

Greetings. I am part of the African diaspora but I have Iberian connections via Puerto Rico and Azores Portugal (I have an unknown paternal great-grandmother) and I have many 3rd and 4th Puerto Rican and Portuguese cousin matches. I also match people from Cuba and Mexico on the Iberian side. I also have Sicilian ancestry via my maternal grandfather’s grandfather. As well I have British ancestry. Furthermore, the ancestry timeline does NOT work for people who have ties to the Americas for centuries and are heavily admixed with European, indigenous and/or African. The ancestry timeline assumes there is “one” ancestor of that ancestral background and it is certainly not the case that someone from the Americas would have one African ancestor or one indigenous ancestor or one Portuguese ancestor. The ancestry timeline should be taken with a grain of salt. In fact, all these estimates and timelines should be taken with a grain of salt. The only accurate part of testing is cousin matches and people should be studying their matches to confirm or verify their ancestry. This point has been argued by all genetic genealogists.

[@jacobstestimony1054]

You are a true 10 tribe Queen..A real Sephardic. The only ones with a twin mutant gene. Your DNA results show the scars of all the Captivities you've been through.

The level of these ingredients could be irrelevant as long as they posses #2 The Jacob/Israel twin mutation gene. They knew this whole time, who we were and who our twin was.

So, I watch your video on your updated results from Ancestry.com and you said give you a message if we matched....and guess what? we are a match at 4th thru 6th cousins. My results are: Spain 36% Portugal 24% Indigenous Puerto Rico 20% France 5% Southern Italy 5% European Jewish 3% Nigeria 2% Cameroon, Congo & Western Bantu Peoples 2% Ivory Coast & Ghana 1% Senegal 1% Somalia 1% The photo that you are using on your profile: Your hair is down, you are wearing what looks like a black or grey shirt, you're in a bar or restaurant with blue bar stools in the background and you have your hand up next to your face.

Not sure if you have done this but I would be interested in seeing results of any of your siblings and how they compare to your results. How close will their results be to yours? I think this would be interesting to see.

[@wickedq01]

The Ancestry update does not seem correct for people who I manage tests for and most people reacting in genetic genealogy groups. 23andMe seems the most accurate. The estimates should be taken with a grain of salt. You can upload to FTDNA, MyHeritage and GedMatch from the test you took. I hope you get your parents to test. I have my parents and my kids tested.

[@Dotz_Sumimasen]

I disagree. In my experience with these tests, 23andMe does a poor job at explaining their estimates & relevancy of trace/low confidence results, their website/app is not as user friendly for the average customer and the estimates of tests I manage with both companies have the AncestryDNA results better supporting the genealogy research we have done. There’s a plethora of genealogy researchers who shake their head at the misinformation 23andMe seems to hand out as fact rather than fully informing customers that these are estimates. The only real worth we have received from 23andMe is the access to other matches. Our FTDNA and MyHeritage estimates were generic and inaccurate respectively. The Y-DNA and maternal haplogroup info and matches were helpful at FTDNA, but both their and MyHeritage’s website’s are not for the casual user. GEDMatch is problematic with the hacking last summer and paywall to get reports that barely make sense to the average user. I’d not recommend unless you are into genealogy hard core and don’t mind anyone who finds your info to have access to it. I absolutely agree with your message that these results should be taken with a grain of salt. ALL of these companies are making guesses based upon their own database samples and calculation criteria.

[@robertoglencoco7861]

it depends what you want from the test if you want dna matches their is no need to do the test for you and your siblings if your parents are willing to do it. Also your parents aren't going to pass down anything they don't have so if you get them both to it I wouldn't have your brother do it unless you want to specifically know what was passed down but know of it will really be a surprise especially if your parents do it first.
