Tracing the Blank Ancestry: iGENEA DNA Test Unearths Surprise Middle Eastern Connection

Family name Blank

A DNA journey with iGENEA provided me an unexpected twist and turns about my surname, Blank. It verified my paternal line, revealed a middle-eastern connection, and roots in European Jewish heritage along with a diverse cultural collection.

This DNA journey with iGENEA took me on quite an unexpected trip discovering about my surname, Blank. The results are surprising, enlightening, and thoroughly fascinating. The twists and turns unearthed by DNA matching have given a completely new perspective to my understanding of my roots. Not only did it verify my paternal line, but it also revealed a fascinating middle eastern connection, which I never anticipated.

The iGENEA DNA test journey took me from waters washing the coasts of northwestern Europe to the sun-soaked dunes of the Middle East. It unraveled the hidden chapters of my ancestry, forever embedded in my genes. It also confirmed my ties to my Blank surname, grounding me in European Jewish heritage while simultaneously presenting a vibrant tapestry of cultural diversity.

I've always believed that my surname's roots were firmly planted in Europe, with a well-established history of Jewish lineage. The discovery of a Middle Eastern strand is an exciting twist to my narrative, adding richness and diversity. The DNA test revealed a high percentage of Ashkenazi Jewish genes, which is expected behind a Jewish surname like Blank. Still, the surprise came with a significant portion of Sephardic Jewish genes, typically Moroccan, suggesting a more southwards lineage originally.

Simultaneously, smaller pockets of Scandinavian and British Isles genes were found, pointing towards an even broader migrational background of the Blank ancestors. It seems like my ancestors were well-traveled, and their journey, moving between cultures and continents, has left an indelible mark on my DNA.

Just as the patriarch, Abraham journeyed through the Middle East making connections, it seems my ancestors did the same. These new revelations from my DNA test have made me see the lineage of the surname Blank in a new light, connecting not just to a region but a vast network of cultures and identities.

These results have ignited a passion in me to further delve into my roots, looking back into the annals of history to fully understand the Blank lineage's journey. After all, it seems my surname is as mystifying and fascinating as the histories of the peoples over which it has traveled.
