  1. Interesting. According to this, I'm more English than the average English person! And my most recent English ancestor left in 1820 :)

    AncestryDNA puts my ethnic origin at:
    Great Britain - 57%
    Europe West - 19%
    Ireland - 18%
    Scandinavia - 5%
    Europe East - 1%

    FTDNA has me at 68% British Isles, 27% Scandinavia, 5% Eastern Europe.
