Genetic Groups released by Myheritage to identify ancestral origins

Myheritage has announced the release of Genetic Groups, allowing anyone who’s taken a Myheritage DNA test to identify their ancestral origins in more than 2,000 regions

Genetic Groups include detailed genealogical insights about each group. Users can view a group’s migration patterns and drill down to view its precise whereabouts during different time periods from the 17th century until today. For each Genetic Group, users can view common ancestral surnames and common given names, the most

prevalent ethnicities among the group’s members, a list of other groups that have high affinity to the current one, and more.

The technology that powers the feature means that Myheritage is now able to identify many populations that have never before been detected by any consumer DNA test. Visit: http://familytr.ee/ggroups
