This guy is likely not the toughest case to crack, but take a guess based off of typed out results from his 23AndMe, plus some Vahaduo. Also if you wish, guess as to which region within the United States he originates.

3/4 British Isles, 1/4 South French?

Or 3/4 British Isles, 1/8 German, 1/8 Italian?

Premature, but I suppose I'll reveal what is known now, since there probably will not be a great variety of guesses.

The guy is from the American Southeast, and as far as he knows he is of Brit/Irish stock with some German. He does get Switzerland as a region on his Ancestry Composition, so perhaps the Italian-like stuff that he has is from some Italian-shifted Swiss.

Bump. Would some Swiss ancestry account for this "high" of "Italian" ancestry in him?
