DNA

I supplied samples of my DNA to MyHeritageDNA.com in late 2017 and this is the outcome of their analysis

This analysis, at first glance, doesn’t seem very convincing and frankly I’ve no idea where the East European and Finnish element comes from. The Nigerian fragment is almost certainly genuinely African but probably from one of the South African tribes. (See details of the Human family tree later in the website)

When I discovered that there was an element of the website that offered details of closest matches, I was taken aback to discover that the closest match had the same surname as my paternal grand mother and that the second closest match was from my mothers side of the family and was on my family tree. These discoveries completely altered my view of the competence of the DNA analysts.
