None of them are consistent on ethnicity or geography, because none of those companies have enough samples to state definitively that your ancestors were from any specific modern country. They are literally bullshytting.
Now direct line DNA testing is more accurate, because people literally carry the genetic markers of their ancestors which indicates the ethnic groups.

So last Thursday, chick reached out to me on Ancestry to say we have some thru the roof matches and we are probably cousins, but she needed more info, asked me about my family...filled her in on some light shyt, she did some studying on her end, and Ancestry's guidelines brought her to the conclusion that we were too closely related to just be cousins, we had to be siblings. So she started telling me about her dad...
Told her I really don't know who my biological father is. I know who I'm named after, and I know who my mom said my dad is to this day, but that both of those parental figures have mentioned for years that they may not be my biological. I've had this knowledge pretty much my entire life...
Ask homegirl where she's from, she's born and raised in Sacramento. So off bat, makes it a strong possibility we are related. She says her dad is in prison but she talks to him weekly, said she'd give him the info I gave her. She gets back to me around noon today, as he's returned her email, and this is a direct copy and paste of her response to me (which was his email to her):

This is what my dad has said!! So I believe you are my brother Rodney! The dna is too high for you to be another relative
[Redacted], thank you for sharing about Rodney. I would like to know if he grew up in Arkansas at all?
Or did he grow up completely in Sacramento? How old is he? Could he be 31-33 years old?
The reason that I ask is that I did know a Karen from Arkansas who claimed she was pregnant by me. She had a son who I accepted as mines (I never got a paternity test) this was when I was 17 or 18 years old.
I was very proud to be a dad. I thought that he could very well be my firstborn. I brought the baby to meet my mom and my uncle Joe.
I never tried to hide him nor was I ashamed of him. I was a young kid. I wanted to be a dad but I didn't want to be in a committed relationship.
I think what happened, is that, his mom found out about me seeing someone else and didn't want anything else to do with me.
I came by Karen's place too see the baby and was told that Karen and the baby had moved back to Arkansas.
Karen and her sister lived together at the time. I tried coming by there a few other times but was told the same thing, that Karen and who I believed was my son, had moved back to Arkansas.
I was devastated! Heartbroken of course and extremely sad.
I told Karen's sister to please tell Karen to call me so that we could talk. From what I can remember Karen never called me again.
Eventually, I started to think, since I never had a paternity test, that I really didn't know if the child was mines. I eventually had [redacted] and [redacted] and you [redacted].
I am not perfect. I was immature and did not know how to be a man back then. However, I didn't disappear out of Rodney's life, rather his mom disappeared with him from my life.
I would like to see a picture of Rodney. I would like to know his age. There are some additional things in regards to Karen and Rodney's disappearance that I would like to share with Rodney personally.
You are welcome to give him my address here at the prison as well as how to register on my jpay account so that we can communicate by Jpay email.
Rodney may not want anything to do with me. If that's the case I respect his privacy. I love him. I wish I would have had the opportunity to raise him and know him growing up.
Please, tell Rodney, that if he doesn't wish to know me I understand. It doesn't make me think anything less of him.
Also, please let him know that, if he has any questions, no matter how tough his questions may be, I am willing to be transparent, honest and answer all his questions.
Obviously, me being in prison complicates things. You have my complete permission to let him know that I am in prison.
If it's too difficult or a burden trying to explain why I am in here, don't worry I can address that with him, if he contacts me.
I love you, I am proud of you, and I apologize for not always being there for you in your life. I am a different man at 50, than I was at 18 or 26 or even 30.
I love you [redacted] and all of my children. The ones I know of and perhaps there are some kids I had, that I don't know about.
You keep pursuing the Lord and the truth with all your heart sweet daughter, because that is the right thing to do! That is also exactly what I am doing.
God Bless You, [redacted],
Love,
Dad

I'm not completely shocked. I knew for years that I didn't really know who my biological was, and though it still kinda bothered me, it was more in the back of my mind. I had accepted I'd probably die without knowing my bio...
It is a little shocking to get that info brought to me after so long, and with such strong evidence. I don't mind talking to him and finding out what he knows, because so much of my early life is a mystery. And as an adult I've worked on shaking off the identity issues I've had that stems from growing up all over the place and in the care of various guardians, it's crazy you get to 30 and you're still learning that you haven't forgiven certain people or situations, things I thought I'd move past by now...
I don't know exactly how to bring this up with my mom. It won't be right now. I also know she's lied to me in the past, the chances of getting an honest admission from her are not great...
I'm glad I know. It came at an unexpected time, and isn't exactly a shocker, but I'm glad I know...

Why do you think your mom won’t be honest now... after all this time?

Because she wasn't honest for years about being reckless with the men in her life, she has 7 kids and we all have different fathers besides two. Also, years ago I asked her if it was possible that someone else was my father, besides the two men I've known as fathers, and she cursed me out, saying "I know who the fukk I laid down with, stay in your place"...
She's prideful, I'm not sure she'd admit it if I showed her a positive paternity test that this new guy is in fact the bio lol. She'd spin around that...
She’s following deny, deny, deny to save face. I hope she finds it within herself to at least face the truth... you deserve to know the truth...
