Anyway, here is how I parsed my results from Leto's admix requests:
Both Eurogenes K13 and K15 are easy, but Dodecad K12b is pretty hard to work with for this purpose. The results make me seem "Hispanic" and "Latin", LOL, but this Mediterranean DNA is receding because my wife has much less and our children benefit from the ancestry changing along with the Royal Arms, dropping France, picking up Holland and Germany, dropping them and settling down as Anglo-Celtic. My True Ancestry helps illuminate my Gothic descent, which always seems under the radar, because Aquitaine hasn't retained the tribal name, unlike Normandy and Burgundy. This puts the Plantagenets' ties to Aquitaine in perspective, down to when it was made a principality and the base for John of Gaunt's Castilian War. Thing is, I am also descended from the Duke of Lancaster several times on different sides of my family, LOL. Although I am directly paternally Viking-era Norwegian Germanic (matches 1000 Iceland) and maternally pre-Saxon British Celtic (matches Iron Age Cambridgeshire), this is the best I could square up my four grandparents going back patrilineally and matrilineally, relatively speaking:
