    Probably, but with the French migration I'm mainly talking about after the conquest. Most ordinary French migrants may have just taken occupational, patronymic and English toponymic names (i.e. John...

    Because England was part of the Angevin Empire that encompassed basically the Western half of France. I've read before that the Normans recruited from all over France in their invasion of England,...

    I don't know, he does mention the later migration of Flemings and Walloons to East Anglia (as well as the fact that most surnames in Cranbrook, Sussex are Flemish) but there's no way that could...

    True. A large percentage of English surnames are 'French' in origin but they are nearly all Norman from what I've seen. The Normans introduced surnames to England and you would expect a greater...

    Not so beautiful there, but 18th century portraits rarely are IMO. The only one I can think of was that French painter woman (Le Brun).

    It's a fascinating book with lots to ponder, and he was broadly right on many things regarding ancestry, including the South Midlands having much French admixture (more than the Southeast), but it's...

    English is the main official language of Ireland, and has been for many generations. That this Croatian was killed as a result of not speaking English in public is no worse or more pathetic than it...

    Same is true in Oz. Melbourne where I'm from has probably the most pleasant climate (by European standards) in the country, but is sadly also the capital of lefist insanity. It was once the most...

    Definitely not on an individual level, but it does on a regional level, and some (Oliver) argue it does on a class level. The upper classes do have more Norman ancestry, which in theory should show...

    Beautiful, Nordic, but that's clearly not a painting from the time.

    The Gretzinger paper on Early Medieval England from 2 years ago should give you some idea of your ancient ancestry. Commercial DNA tests only purport to show ancestry from the last few hundred years...

    If you have no known ancestry outside England you're very unlikely to get any French on a commercial DNA test. As Raedwald alluded to medieval Norman ancestry is baked into the pie of English...

    Gedmatch and G25 population references are a bit crap and untrustworthy tbh, but it's interesting that your mother gets Orcadian first (as do I in many calcs), likely an indication of the...

    '10-40% in half of modern day Britons' is kind of vague and anyhow incorrect, the average Englishman is over 40% CNE (Anglo-Saxon-like), and the English are about 80% of the (white) British...

    Well the 2022 Gretzinger study shows the earlier studies underestimated the volume and influence of the Anglo-Saxon migration, and it also shows large-scale French-like migration to England in the...
