I have not yet really looked at many others results yet., so I suppose, bump. I don’t presume anything looks too off? The amount of AJ is very quite spot-on. My mother should not have actual British ancestry (unless Very distant and occurring back in Europe), I’m assuming that’s coming off of her Danish side.

What’s interesting is I grew up knowing her as precisely half Eastern European, but 23andme and FTDNA have her as over (55+%) and it always did seem gedmatch calcs treated her as someone more Eastern shifted. Might be possible she has some Polabian admixture on part of her Danish side, or maybe a slavic-admixed AJ ancestor?

That tiny bit of SCA is neat I suppose, but I have little frame of reference as to how often Europeans might score this? Mytrueancestry matched her to Siberian Andronovo, maybe that and FTDNA selectibg SCA for her reflects some Iranic type ancestry in Ashkenazim? Might make sense given the kind of R1a they have.
