My GEDmatch results show me that I am closest to Thracian Turks which seems very likely yet I am still really confused by the vastly different results on these websites. I think that the 23andme result is probably the one closest to the truth but I couldn’t be certain about it because it doesn’t seem to report anything the 1/16 Italian grand grandparent I had talked about earlier.
