    Default R Faroese & Icelanders genetically same or no

    I know that icelanders have Celtic and Nordic ancestry. But I'm confused on Faroese people. Because some websites it says that they have both Anglo Saxon and Bordic blood. But others say they have CELTIC and Nordic blood

    Faroese also Apparently are roughly even parts celtic and Norse. I don't see how they could have any "Anglo-Saxon" per se....their Norse component is probably west Norwegian.

    Plus in picture to me some Faroese look almost straight up Irish. Like distinctly Irish. Of course some others also appear rather Norwegian looking.

    The population of the Faroe Islands is made up almost exclusively of native Faroese people (originally of Scandinavian and Anglo-Saxon descent).

    Some websites say they're part Celtic, others say they're part Anglo-Saxon.

    Looked at pictures of Faeroese in another forum. They totally and absolutely pass as English (not just in England but in Appalachia @ US, who has alluded recent "diversification" thanks to rampant poverty):
