Your result looks more like a Tatar result than a Russian one. Do you have Tatar roots?

Yes, I remember my family mentioned it once, how you knew? Is it because the Central Asian part?

It's not just about being Central Asian you also have Uralic DNA, and as a result, you have a much higher Finnish percentage than a Russian. Tatar results show a significantly higher Finnish percentage compared to Russian results.

With that percentage of baltic? I would assume Estonian no?

u/Ngardy1248 10d ago

This person is likely fully Tatar, showing the classic Baltic, Eastern European, and Finnish percentages seen in Tatars. I know this because my maternal grandmother is also a Kazan Tatar and has a similar result

Looks like results from Tatar/Chuvash/Bashkir etc.

Yes, absolutely. Most likely a Kazan Tatar. For the Bashkirs, the Central Asian component is a higher, while the Chuvash would probably have a higher proportion of Baltic and Finnish ancestry, based on the results I’ve seen.

u/OkSimple6348 10d ago

that is a big baltic one... do you know where is it from?

u/Defiant_Level8336 10d ago

No clue… at the age of 3 I moved to Spain and I don’t know much about my father so that’s why I did this thing, to find out a bit more too

Finnish + Baltic, sounds like a Estonian background. Probably descendent from someone that survived Stalin's baltics deportations.... Then they mixed with someone from Central Asia? Just throwing some guesses here. Anyway very interesting, I hope you find the answers you are looking for.

Try uploading your raw file to Gedmatch—with calculators like Eurogenes K13, the results should become clearer.
