That was good advice but they are up just the same. It’s not hard to though compared to how low they were. My results have not posted yet BUT my origins part did. That means it’s any day now. So …no I’m not Irish and Italian anymore. But I’m not German/English either….necessarily. I’m 98% European and 2% Middle East. Looks like Some German and Scandinavian mostly. This isn’t a real specific test I’m sure but it gives an idea. I’ve got project matches as a result already. Not people matches yet but groups. That is still good and helpful for my journey.
I’m hoping for some locations and surnames at least next. That would really help to narrow down my search. This is so interesting… all of it. That interest is helping with the more emotional part of this. The doubtful part of it all. The enraging part of it all. I’m trying not to check the site 10 times per day but it is hard not to. If only i could just check once per 24 hour period. I hope some family whoever and where ever they are also upload to GEDMATCH and if they are already there, may they too WAIT for my results to be in before they leave the site. I’ve heard a few people say it’s been a long time and they taking there info down. OMG hang on lol
Norway and Switzerland are at the heart of the two main ethnic origins.
Hang in there, your next great match may come in today. Also, pay special attention to where your matches are from. That can often be more helpful that MyOrigins.
Thank you I’ll update tonight but yes I got a second cousin match today. I’m trying to figure out where the connection is right now. 204.00 shared cM
That’s a meaty match!
