ENGLISHMEN who happen to be from the area historically known as "Mercia"!
What's to say their origins and ancestry didn't lie in Kent or "Wessex"???

Is this thread taking into consideration before or after the large influx of prime Wessex DNA?

Mind you, any Englishman with a Midlands accent has been Mercianised enough to qualify for the name, I reckon.
