I have always been curious about my ancestry and stumbled upon this cool site where you can find out which countries your ancestors were from.

If you've taken the DNA test, don't be shy and POST THEM RESULTS! =)


Post your predictions below of what you think I will be made up of.


My prediction is 85% African, 7% Native American and 8% Asian.

I am really interested to know which countries in africa my family came from because I'm not sure if they were the Garifunas who were there BEFORE European settlers came to the Americas or after.

All I know... is I will be DEVASTATED if I have any European DNA. & I'll probably KMS if I have more than 10%.

I'll post results as soon as I receive them.

    I based my predictions based off of what I know.

    I know that my family has lived in Honduras and are part of the Garifuna tribe.

    What I am unsure of is my maternal grandparents side. All I know is they have mongolian/asian DNA. I never knew my grandfather on my mother's side as he died when she was a child.

    I am terrified of the results though. But I am excited to see which parts of africa my family came from.

    Brag about it why don't you.

    It would be exciting to see if my ancestors were a part of the original africans who built the first ships and traveled to the Americas and settled in Honduras. This is what I am crossing my fingers for.

    but speak on it @Elzo69Renaissance Where your family from?

    If you are an American black

    just accept the fact that you will have Euro ancestors

    Funny cause ive been watching that "Find your roots" show that Henry Louis Gates Jr hosts on PBS

    and all the AA's that have done the show have at least 10% euro blood

    @BeleeDatPleighboy

    I'm not though.

    My family first came to the US in 1985, before that they were in Honduras. I don't know anything before that though.

    I am black but from which country in africa? That's what I am really interested in finding out.

    how can this thing be sure that African Americans with euro dna isn't showing those results from the euro, being originally mixed with african dna

    If we're to believe 1st man originated in Africa then that would mean all Europeans should have some african dna, thus that could be the small percentage of euro dna showing up in the results of African Americans

    well i am kind of lucky being that i am a Jamaican maroon and feel that i can trace by my lineage back a long way without taking any test in a sense my family also has a personal oral history.

    according to family legend only two of my male ancestors lived under slavery before escaping to live in the bush with the other maroons where he married a another escaped woman who was at least part white . His father came from the kawahu people in what is now ghana at the time his father got captured the kawahu were under the Ashanti and there was some kind of beef and politics they tried to break away, my great great great great etc etc got captured and sold and ended up in jamaica.

    somewhere along the line someone from my family also married someone who was at least part native that's the legend so i am mostly black and that's good enough for me
