I was thinking that my father was a Switzer, so my paternal DNA wouldn’t be Goudie either. It would be my mother’s father who would give us the Goudie DNA. I tried to get her to take a test, but she wouldn’t. I should try again.
Leslie you absolutely got 50% of your autosomal DNA from your mother Stella Goudie who would have gotten 50% of her autosomal DNA from her father, James William Goudie, which means 25% of your autosomal DNA is from James William Goudie. This also means you inherited 12.5% of your autosomal DNA from the father of James William Goudie, i.e. your great grandfather.
Oh, I see. Thank you. I’m not sure how Sheldon and I don’t come up as a match. We have to be related in some way if we both descend from John and Eliza Goudie.
It’s still really fun for me to finally find someone connected to my Goudie line. And I learned some new things about the family. Thank you very much. It’s the line of my family that I have known the least about. Although looking at my old notes, I knew more than I thought I did. I guess it has been a long time since I did any family research.
I’m curious if you have run your kit through any of the Admixture calculators on Gedmatch. I would like to see what percentages you get for the indigenous portions. I Can run your kit through myself to have a look for you as well. I find Eurogenes K36 a good calculator for a fair representation or any of the MDLP Projects.
