Nothing like scientific data processes can bring to the usual leg work, I'd imagine. <br /><br /><a href="http://www.williamsdatamanagement.com/" rel="nofollow">Ruby Badcoe @ Williams Data Management</a> Rubyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16314434089797506245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5454603795410144652.post-58386519829544738582014-05-11T22:32:13.459-07:002014-05-11T22:32:13.459-07:00Andrea, Family Tree DNA doesn't assign Native ...Andrea, Family Tree DNA doesn't assign Native American DNA unless you pay for it separately. 23 and me provides it without additional cost.

The myOrigins result is 86% African, 14% European and 1% New World (Native American, which I still don't know is significant or not, if I had 1% that'd be one thing but I would think if my grandfather had actual Native American it would be a little bit higher). 86%+14%+1=101%. As for the statistical noise that I've talked about a lot, I talked to FTDNA today and the operator swore they have neither statistical noise nor a margin of error. The operator told me the results totaled "101%" because the "Kalahari Basin" result was rounded. Do not know why they are giving African Americans "East African" results when I haven't seen any on 23andme assigned that. Still don't understand why they had gotten rid of so many of their reference populations (Population Finder had Yoruba and Mandinka for West African, now myOrigins only has Yoruba, African Americans can not have just one reference).
