Romany heritage ? Is there a DNA marker
+2

Hi not sure where to pose this question. I note with interest that someone was searching for Jagg/Jaggi/Jaques ancestors. My Jacques ancestor search has hit a roadblock and I have some anomalies in DNA heritage. one site gives me 5 per cent Germanic heritage which I cannot find while another shows 12 percent Balkan which I cannot account for at all. Could I in fact have some Romany heritage?

Keep in mind that admixture reports are still very much at the "entertainment value only" stage. Five percent is of borderline significance/reality on any site, and on MyHeritage, even twelve percent can be totally false.
