View Full Version : British/Irish MyHeritage users getting Eastern European?

On many occasions, I see DNA matches from the UK and Ireland getting 90% or so percent British Isles/Scandinavian/N&W European, and the remainder is usually Baltic and/or East Slavic/European. I've seen this go as high as 12% or 13%. I know its not literal, their ethnicity estimate severely needs updated, but I wonder what exactly causes this. Is their algorithm just choosing a population with greater WHG to balance?
