Test shows I have Italian on both sides, but my mother has no Italian ancestry

So, no new information, you were just updating posts in this topic?

Just responding to the most recent comment, since the topic has been in limbo for a while.

Right now I can't find anything, nothing new has surfaced, so it's just a nagging annoyance. I know it's there, there is just too much scientific evidence I can't explain away. Unfortunately papertrails and genealogical websites aren't helping, only confusing the matter further.

I just have to put it to rest until I have another bone to chew on or I can find the time to really dig into my DNA matches to see if/where any connections may lead. That's not likely to happen any time soon...

In general, analyzing ancestry through DNA results is not always 100% accurate. It may be due to factors such as:

The accuracy of DNA analysis tools is limited
Historical cultures and migrations can confuse ancestral compositions
Some family branches are not fully recorded in genealogical records
Therefore, it is necessary to link many different sources of information such as historical records, genealogy and DNA results to draw more accurate conclusions about ancestral origin. Hopefully, with further research efforts, you will find clues to answer your doubts about Italian ancestors in your family tree.
