We are preparing for the long haul
We need political, activist, financial, legal support. We also need community outreach. This looks like veteran support and park cleanups now but one day, once we have the money, it could look like an IE YMCA thing. Something that builds a community.
@Mr Snow than you should start volunteering in community activities like me

have some cozy music for this weather
Im listening to Moby
How do I figure out if I’m descended from the original Baltic peoples the Prussians or the Germanic peoples who were moved into this area after the Teutonic Knights crusaded there?
Because on GEDMatch it shows quite a bit of Baltic DNA 🧬
Check haploid groups
My family was from a little town called Garnsee, West Prussia. Which is the area occupied by the Old Prussians
I will check, hold up.
Or essentially where your Y chromosome is from
@MrDefault Do you have GEDMatch profile? Where do I find that
I used 23andMe
You upload your 23andMe to GEDMatch
You don’t take a test with GED
Oh
I would check 23 and me then
Well what do you know
It says I’m Baltic Hunter Gatherer
That’s old Prussian alright.
don't they say if you're from traditionally Prussian territory unless you can trace your family back to the Prussia aristocracy you're very likely Baltic
I was not aware of that
But the surname was Meier which was a Prussian aristocratic name
I've only heard it
But I couldn’t find any aristocracy
Aristocracy or just Sam Anderson
very nice
It’s tiny as heck. I bet if I went there I could find their exact residence tbh.
fun fact
my family and @DixieBoy76 - KY's family are from towns that are fairly close to each other
That is fun. I’m having fun already
🤔
@Jacob did your family replace @DixieBoy76 - KY’s family
yes
Come to North Atlantic @V.Balboa - PA
If you all are looking at DNA tests, I would highly recommend CRI Genetics. Not only do you get your genetic make-up, but it also shows when a particular ancestor entered your family. It’s really damn cool.
call me paranoid, but are there any anonymous DNA testing services?
It’s also run by an actual geneticist and not some (((multi-national))) corporation.
