Review: Great value, detailed ethnicity info and a few surprises. Very impressed - This is an excellent starter kit for anyone interested in learning more about or understanding their ethnic roots. We tend to think we're British or Afro/Caribbean, American or European or whatever. The truth is often surprising. DNA testing for ethnicity is still relatively young, but the database is growing and having taken this test, I'm both surprised, impressed and convinced by the results. My roots are diverse. There was no way that could have been known by Ancestry as I'm not a member. The test is easy; you provide a saliva sample in a tube, seal it and send it. Postage prepaid. Sit back and wait for results. Mine took 5 weeks, with a couple of progress updates. The readout is informed and comprehensive. A pie chart ethnicity breakdown with detailed region specific analysis and an illustrated history. Possible socio/economic influences which are likely to have affected movement of people. In my case, the overwhelming Scottish DNA profile was unexpected, but with the explanation of the story provided by Ancestry, it makes sense. Also some interesting genetic connections to Andeans and native Americans which were a surprise. The results also identify possible people matches; Ancestry members to whom there's a direct connection. I've contacted a couple on my list and unearthed some family detail which is new to me. This is a basic test. There are other mitochondrial kits for the maternal line, specifically and another for the paternal side. But they're more expensive. The Ancestry DNA ethnicity test is an excellent introduction to who you really are. I'm convinced the results are accurate and relevant, impressed with the detail provided and there's loads of ways to add more info without actually subscribing to Ancestry. This is more than fun, it's a building block for a bigger story. Excellent value Review: You need time but tests are fantastic. - My friend originally told me not to get one they are useless. He found out from a family member that his father wasn't his biological father. I helped with his test and was amazed by how good it was. I brought my first test last November and my test came back end of December, my results proved most of my lines but I have lost some(or maybe someone was unfaithful). 72%Irish makes sense. I know some people complain about their results but a lot can make sense if you know history and go back far enough in time. Since December I have brought a test for my mother, her sister, my dad's brother, and my husband. All perfect and making sense. My mother and aunt 100%Irish. Uncle and hubby are mixed. In fact it didn't just say we were Irish it actually marked exactly what part of Ireland. UK born tests are getting a lower amount of 4th cousins and nearer than Irish born as a lot emigrated to America, and I am getting a lot of matches there. All I would say is if you want to find out your make up for fun that's fine. If you are expecting it to work out your tree for you, it won't. You need to have some knowledge of your tree (I started my tree 13+yrs ago), and a lot of time spent on the computer. With help of other online groups and GEDmatch also videos online I have found Ancestry all I could wish for and more. It's addictive. - After my results being back for 8plus months I can say I am still getting new relations coming online. Only thing I don't like is the amount of people who only just do the test for fun and the % of their make up. They you can see only went online for the test on % and aren't interested in Family history research. I have known a few who have found close relatives they never knew about Inc my husband. Delighted to have done the tests, and want to get more... Just waiting for the price to come down lower. Better buying from desertcart as not postage but have brought directly when offer was on with Ancestry. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00TRLVKW0 | | ASIN | B00TRLVKW0 | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | 450,483 in Health & Personal Care ( See Top 100 in Health & Personal Care ) 2,045 in Home Medical Tests | | Brand | AncestryDNA | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (86,072) | | Customer reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (86,072) | | Date First Available | 15 Jun. 2020 | | Is discontinued by manufacturer | No | | Item model number | 445 | | Language | English | | Manufacturer | Ancestry.com | | Product Dimensions | 24.13 x 13.97 x 4.32 cm; 68 g | | Units | 1 count | | Weight | 91 g | ## Images ![Genetic Ethnicity - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51Ax3CHa7eL.jpg) ![Genetic Ethnicity - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71Y4JR6156L.jpg) ![Genetic Ethnicity - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61VQf-qw9fL.jpg) ![Genetic Ethnicity - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51VsRt3CITL.jpg) ![Genetic Ethnicity - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/6179+f1s+2L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: How many past generations does this test go back? Will it test going back a few hundred years?** A: That depends on your ancestry and the number of people of similar ancestry who have tested. Biggest group is European heritage. I have 6th and 7th generation matches going back to colonial New England because there was a good degree of pedigree collapse (genetic reinforcement due to small populations intermarrying) The majority of matches will be in the 4th cousin range. However, matches are pointless unless you have a decent family tree (at least 4 generations) and respond to messages because you will not be able to make the connections otherwise. **Q: Are these results on a par with 23andme? Are they identical or is there more info or less?** A: In my opinion, there are benefits to doing both. Ancestry is FAR superior in the genealogy department especially since 23andMe now limits you to 1500 or 5000 matches depending on what kit you buy. On Ancestry, people are more likely to have family trees, meaning you are more likely to be able to figure out how they connect to you. 23andMe has benefits. They don’t charge extra for traits. They have health information for an extra fee. They do reports on Neanderthal. They have a different matching pool than Ancestry. So do both tests if you can. Ancestry if you can only do one for family history, 23andMe for health. **Q: Do you get both maternal and paternal lines with this test?** A: Not distinct, separate lines, no. But you do get those results, just mixed up. AncestryDNA tests only autosomal chromosomes; that is, non-sex chromosomes. These are the 22 chromosomes everyone has regardless of gender. That means your results will show both your parents' ancestry, even if you're female, but it'll be combined - you won't be able to tell which parent provided which country or DNA result. For maternal- and paternal-specific ancestry (mtDNA and YDNA, respectively), 23andme provides this testing. AncestryDNA stopped doing it in 2014 (see https://blogs.ancestry.com/ancestry/2014/06/12/comments-on-y-dna-and-mtdna-tests/). I recommend doing both AncestryDNA and 23andme for a more comprehensive picture of your background. And if you're female, ask a male relative (father, brother, paternal uncle) to do 23andme so you can extrapolate your paternal YDNA and haplogroup, since females do not carry the Y sex chromosome. Again, this is not available via AncestryDNA.If you are only interested in overall, general, "big-picture" results, and aren't concerned with specifics like which part of the world your maternal/paternal line came from per se, or your haplogroups, then AncestryDNA is the way to go. **Q: Do the results give countries or just continents? I would like one that gives specific countries.** A: Just a general response to all the older responses to questions. All of the DNA companies are constantly changing their DNA results. The more people that have the test, that more data goes into improving the accuracy and/or improves the ability to be more specific. Therefore, just wanted to say, as time goes on, the older responses may no longer be valid. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great value, detailed ethnicity info and a few surprises.

We ordered this 6 weeks before Christmas and I received the results via email on Christmas Day morning. I'm not sure if that was deliberate however it was a nice touch all the same. I was born in Kent moving to East Sussex when I was only two weeks old - I moved to the West Midlands in 2010, yet the DNA test was able to pick up on this. It told me exactly where the English side of my family originated (Central Southern England; Greater London) I had previously bought one for my husband and it showed the English side of him being from the Midlands - we weren't expecting that level of detail, we thought it would just say England! I was able to find out about my Welsh, Germanic and Swedish and Norwegian Viking ancestry (I had no idea, it made a nice topic during the Christmas Day telephone call to my mum!) and my husband's results had also been updated by the time mine arrived, in addition to his British and Italian ancestry, he has also gained some Norwegian Viking DNA! Maybe that explains his "manly" beard??? I was also shocked that I only had less than 1% of Scottish and Irish ancestry, it must be accurate as being British, you'd imagine I'd have a lot more than that, obviously not regarding my family! I'm really impressed with the results and ease of use. An awesome Christmas present and cheaper from Amazon than Ancestry's own website.
