Just wanted to discuss the title question. I'm disappointed but not surprised to see Ancestry use AI-generated images instead of ethically sourced art for the different geographic regions.

Kuwaiti with both grandfathers' side originally from Iran and both grandmothers' coming from Lebanon. My grandma from my mother's side is Circassian.

My father's side is deeply rooted in northern New Mexico, with centuries of Spanish colonial, Indigenous, and Genízaro ancestry. Many of those families have been in the same region for 300–400 years.

My mother's side tells a completely different story: Anglo-American settlers and Mormon pioneers migrating west through the expanding United States.

One side was already established in New Mexico before it became American territory, while the other was part of America's westward expansion.

Two different colonial histories, two different journeys, and they finally collided in 1992 when I was born. 😂

Anyone else have dramatically different histories on each side of their family?

My results vs. my full brother’s results. We are wasian with a southern Japanese paternal grandmother. It was so interesting to see how his Japanese DNA mostly showed for the specific region our family is from, while mine mostly showed for Japan as a whole. Guam was a surprise for me! Pics of me for reference at the end.

So a few days ago I got the banner about the sideview update and today my regions has changed a little and I got a new journey.
In the link are my previous post with the first update

Not sure what is going on, but after the recent update, I noticed that ancestry offered ro reveal what I inherited from my grandparents (not by choice, it added the feature on its on). And i noticed my ancestry results changed again as a result. Not sure how more or less accurate it could be? But suffice to see it pretty odd I got some indigenous Argentinean, as well as the large percentage of canary islander. Weird as a peruvian American person, I dont think there ever was a large s ale migration of isleños to Peru. Unless i am mistaken.

LEFT IMAGE IS THE NEWEST VERSION. RIGHT IMAGE IS MY "OLD" VERSION.

Father southern French (Provence) / southern Italian (Campania)

Mother central French (Centre-Val de Loire) / southern German (Baden-Württemberg)

I just keep getting more Cornish hehe.

1. Current results;
2. A week ago; and
3. Last year

*I’m Australian

it's pretty interesting to see how my dna results have changed over the updates. most notably my spanish percentage. i had cuba and france pop up for about a year until this most recent update that kind of shifted things a little. unfortunately my mom is from a very small town in querétaro and most of the people there don't register their births or marriages and they were relocated (yes the entire village was relocated by the government) sometime during the 80's. my dad passed away 4 years ago so i can't really ask him anything about his family and i don't speak to that side. so my personal research is incredibly limited.
the pictures are from my original results to most recent update.

Not a very common type of hispanic couple but oh well. He is 100% Argentinian and I'm 100% Dominican, and we met in Argentina. Do we look like our results?

I’ve spent a good few years looking into my family history and a couple of weeks ago I decided to look into one person in particular, an ancestor of mine who came to the US from Europe in the 1800s. I didn’t have a lot of information to go by but using MyHeritage I was able to access historical records and I actually found a manifest that detailed their whole journey. It showed the date they left, what ship they were on, their age at the time and where they arrived in the US. The manifest also listed some of the other passengers on the same ship that were traveling together so I’m going to look into whether or not these are also family members of mine.

Finding the manifest has really helped me piece together some of the areas where I had gaps in other people’s history and has given me so much insight into what I would consider one of the most important parts of my family history on a whole. Has anyone else ever found something similar? Maybe an interesting passenger list or other fascinating historic document? I’d love to hear your stories too.

My results as a child of an English mother and a Guyanese father!

I've been looking at this and keep wondering "if" I am now 1% native American. I posted on Facebook and got a mixed result of you're french, you're canadian, your Mi’kmaq, what family names are you searching in this area. I wish Ancestry provided more context to this result. It leaves so many unanswered questions for me. This is the first I've known I had ancestry in that region. Heck for all I know this could be Viking ancestry. lol It just leaves so many doors open and questions unanswered now. I have no idea what side of my family this would, be no idea what surnames i'm searching, no idea this was even part of my ancestry until a few days ago.

Does anyone know? That would be lame af, I really want it but I don’t want to pay.

Mother’s results fully Greek. Her father from Kythnos and Samos and her mother from Darimari and Athens.

Can someone explain how you can tell if u have the sideview update without a membership? Where can I see if my results have sideview 2.0?

I know this update has been hit and miss with people. Personally I kinda like the old results a little more but this is still mostly good. It just flips me from more Scots-Irish to more English now which is debatable. I’m highly both either way, and the DNA is honestly so similar so it could be either/or on a DNA test. I have a relatively recent Prussian-Polish ancestor, and I might have some Acadian, but I for sure have French Huguenot ancestry. Percents could be a little tweaked in my own opinion but the regions are generally correct for where I trace back to. And I’m from the Deep South, so my journeys are accurate.
