I see you used Happaworld. Click the "Oracle 4" button under the category listing. It takes a guess of what your 4 grandparents' are made up of. Post the first result under "
Using 4 populations approximation:"

OMG

Interesting. Remember, it's just a guess or estimate. I know one of your grandparents are white so the British makes sense.

And wait, aren't you Guyanese on your dad's side? Wow it's on point for you.

Mine:
african-american + brong + dominican + fang @ 2.918802

I think it's pretty spot on for me as well. All of my grandparents are "Black" except my mother's mother. But she's not Dominican. The test is guessing that , but Dominicans are also a mix of African/European/Native. Which is pretty much what she is.

If Native teas are consistent on multiple tests, it's safe to conclude that it's there.

I'm still blown away by how on point Theo's Oracle 4 results are. :dead: :dead:

I find those to be more accurate than looking at ethnicity estimates. They're more to the point.

Yeah, both my Grandparents are Guyanese on my Dad's side.

OMFff. This is real juicy.

This thread made me get back into GEDMatch.

I find it so weird with the Dominican results because it also returned a pretty significant mix of Iberian (Spain/Portugal) and Mesoamerican admixture in my results in more than one test. Almost 10% . Something tells me that my grandmother's father was of significant Hispanic descent. From the DNA, to her coming back as "Dominican"..

To how she describes him. She doesn't have pictures of him but she said he was very fair skinned with very curly hair. And clearly she wasn't making it up, on a couple official documents, including his marriage certificate, he's listed as "white", so he was passing for white even though he wasn't.  That sounds like a hispanic person to me. Many of them can easily slip under the radar and give a white mess out. And there was no such thing as designating someone as "Hispanic" on records back on those days. You were white or black.

And I know this is more trivial, but I found it hilarious, when we were doing that whole celeb look alike site thing weeks ago, I put my aunt in there and her top result was Rosie Perez. :dead: :dead: :dead: I found it funny because she said people always think she's Hispanic.  But I was still shocked cuz I guess I don't see these things when I look at my family. It's outside people that usually point things out.

Honestly I barely believed her. :plzstop: :plzstop: :plzstop:
