DNA
mtDNA
Mitochondria's contribution to ethnicity: Mitochondria are membrane-bound cell organelles (mitochondrion, singular) that generate most of the chemical energy needed to power the cell's biochemical reactions. Chemical energy produced by the mitochondria is stored in a small molecule called adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Mitochondria contain their own small chromosomes. Generally, mitochondria, and therefore mitochondrial DNA, are inherited only from the mother.
Mitochondria are membrane-bound organelles, but they're membrane-bound with two different membranes. And that's quite unusual for an intercellular organelle. Those membranes function in the purpose of mitochondria, which is essentially to produce energy. That energy is produced by having chemicals within the cell go through pathways, in other words, be converted. And the process of that conversion produces energy in the form of ATP, because the phosphate is a high-energy bond and provides energy for other reactions within the cell. So the mitochondria's purpose is to produce that energy. Some different cells have different amounts of mitochondria because they need more energy. So for example, the muscle has a lot of mitochondria, the liver does too, the kidney as well, and to a certain extent, the brain, which lives off of the energy those mitochondria produce. [4]
For genealogical research, you are assured of ruling out lineage mismatches for paper trail comparisons. You will also achieve the highest level of confidence possible that your mtDNA full sequence matches are related to you within the genealogical time frame. The mtFull Sequence test:
Sequences nucleotides 00001 to 00547 (HVR2). Sequences nucleotides 00575 to 16000 (coding region). Sequences nucleotides 16001 to 16569 (HVR1). Provides mtDNA Haplogroup and Sublcade. Allows you to confidently rule out possible genealogical connections and confirm relationships. Provides both ancient and historic migration paths.
The mtFull Sequence test will not be able to identify specific countries that your maternal ancestors came from. mtDNA mutates slowly which allows you to find out ancient information (such as your haplogroup), and will not help you learn about your more recent (within the past 200-500 years) origins. However, you can use mtDNA results with your personal genealogy research to contact your matches to find out more about where your common ancestors may be from. [5]
H1: Unlike other branches of the mega-haplogroup H, the defining mutation for H1 (3010A) has likely happened many times in the history of H. This recurrent nature of H1 adds an extra layer of complexity to understanding our direct maternal origins within H1 and its sub-branches.
H1 encompasses an important fraction of Western European mtDNA, reaching its local peak among contemporary Basques and appearing at a high frequency among other Iberians and North Africans.

Just wanted to let you know that your watchlist includes some profiles that are a part of a lineage that has been proven as a Fraud. https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Leboeuf-168 https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Forsyth_de_Fronsac_Fraud
What we want to do is to figure out where your lineage connects into this fraud and disconnect from the lineage.
Unfortunately, with the internet these kind of "folklore" are multiplying. Take a look at all of them that we have identified on WikiTree. https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Frauds_and_Fabrications This is why primary sources are so important on WikiTree. Also, it is why we encourage people to go slow and make sure that each set of parents are proven before moving on.
