hi
our genes have full probability of mutation also if you think that you don't have connection to asia.
phenotypic expression is also a different thing,where person has the particular gene in the body but not expressed(remain silent) for years and may be expressed later on certain stimulation e.g. environmental factors
genetic hierarchy is very complex and it doesn't mean that comes only from recent past 2 or 3 generation only. there is quite possibility that the genes may not have be expressed.
