More DNA updates

I clicked on my DNA ancestry matches over the weekend and found a new close one.  My uncle! My dad's brother.  Second best to having my dad's dna, I'd say.

So here's the breakdown, with me, my mom and my uncle (dad's brother):


Of course, it's hard to know what to make of all this.  One of the more interesting things that first stood out to me are: 14% Iberian Peninsula. I only had 1%.  This is the region that includes Spain and Portugal.  My husband saw that and said that's where our dark coloring comes from. I think the Italy/Greece at 3% may go right along with that.  The other interesting percentages to note are trace.  Benin/Togo and Asia South.  Benin and Togo are located near Nigeria.  This is what I was looking for. My mulatto great-great grandmother passed some DNA down to my uncle (just not me).  The Asia South includes India.  Interesting.
