Why you're NOT going to DNA match with an African cousin
from Creole Explained · host Marc L.
Here I review some statistics and research limitations. I explain how AncestryDNA and company work to determine your ethnicity update. I also review the history to explore why matching with a cousin in Africa is very slim for the vast majority of Black Americans, Afro-Caribbeans, and Afro-Latinos. I cite some of the numbers from thednageek.com. Dr. Leah Larkin and other contributing members have several cMs calculators and articles detailing the use of cMs in determining genetic relationships. I do believe with the right tester, you can match with African cousins perhaps. That will be my research question if I get my grandfather to test.
