[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The problem with DNA is that it doesn't work the way many people assume. A person with one black parent and one white parent does not necessarily get a 23andme report that says 50% black. What's especially funny to those of us in mixed-race families is seeing sibling reports with very different ancestry percents. DNA doesn't divide evenly LOL.[/quote] Even in ostensibly all AA* families, there are different percentages. *by all, I mean families with 1 white great-grandparent. I think you have to go back to the 1820s if you want excellent chances to try to find 0% European ancestry among your AA ancestors. And some people may find enslaved ancestors cane from regions where Arabs, Portuguese, and other whites had been mixing with the local population for generations by 1820. [/quote]
