Ancestral Family Tree DNA Testing / Re: DNA breakdown AGAIN
« on: Saturday 10 December 22 12:35 GMT (UK)  »
I've recently found myheritage more useful than ancestry. The ethnicity estimate on heritage is better (I know many will disagree) plus I've discovered more DNA matches with trees. Ancestry has changed the estimates so much mine is unrecognisable from when I first took the test.
 GEDmatch  has also been useful and accurate ethnicity wise.

I've contacted ancestry to explain how they've allocated some matches to the wrong parent. Some of my matches have more than one common ancestor link to my paternal side and they've still been allocated maternal.
 Ancestry have said they can't tell with some matches so they just assign one or the other or leave it unassigned. So if people are seeing matches with paternal or maternal highlighted in red telling you it's the wrong parent just beware. There's still loads of quessing going on at ancestry

I've just noticed this new feature. I have matches that I know for definite are paternal (match with trees and common ancestors) but there now suggesting in red that they are maternal matches even though there common ancestor link is through my father?  It's also swapped round my ethnicity inheritance! This now doesn't make sense as I've got Portuguese and Scottish which can only come from my father my mother's family tree well researched are from the Midlands for 100s of years.

Apologies I didn't explain that very well. Basically I have a few matches that share my ancestry community (North West, Lancs,Greater Manchester) but looking at there trees the connection isn't from that community.

Has anyone found matches where they share a community with you  (like Yorkshire, Midlands etc) but don't share an ancestor with the shared community?

 :) thank you both. That's confirmed what I thought might be the case.

 Thank you for the reply that's interesting. They share a half first cousin on my mothers side and there looks to be a few distant connections on my father's side.   :o
