Need more population to gauge data. Right now most of the info is only based on 23nme clientele, not general

Too general in nature lacked specifics of where and when and just relied of flow charts of natural history of man
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for your feedback. To view a full list of the reference populations, please click the blue "See all 31 tested populations" link under your Ancestry Composition results.
The population labels in Ancestry Composition refer to genetically similar groups, rather than nationalities. In general, we sought to make the populations as small as possible, subject to the constraint of being able to distinguish between them. Populations may be inherently difficult to distinguish because of historical mixing, or we might not have had enough data to tell them apart.
You can read about the population selection process in more detail in the corresponding section of the Ancestry Composition Guide:

I received my results just about 3 weeks now and through I researched my family very well, I am totally happy with my report. At this time I am still hopping around from one thing and then back to another, but the information is terrific. I printed a few reports and that allows me to better think of the contents and return to them without looking at the computer.
I do plan on sending my wife's test in for her results and that along with what we already know should be of great help to our children and theirs.
