By the way, not only would I be interested in seeing where us English place themselves, but also the ex-colonial members of the Apricity.

Hey, thanks for including us from the colonies, mate.
Anyway, there are surely more and from other regions, but from what I know of my English ancestors, they hailed from East Anglia (Norfolk, Suffolk), Lincolnshire, Yorkshire and some from the west in Gloucestershire.
Again, I'm sure that I have English folks in my family tree from all over the country but the ones that I know for sure are in the places I mentioned.
I've got a bunch from north of that wee border too.

Props for including Westmoreland. Do people still remember that that used to be a real county?
Bloody government boundary changes.

I live in Gloucestershire, from the records i have unearthed my family have lived here from the early 1800s, my surname is unique in the fact it only comes from one place in the British isles, and that place is Lancashire...
Have you noticed that if you rearrange the letters in ‘illegal immigrants’, and add just a few more letters, it spells, ‘Go home you free-loading, benefit-grabbing, resource-sucking, baby-making, non-English-speaking ********* and take those other hairy-faced, sandal-wearing, bomb-making, camel-riding, goat-f*****g raghead c***s with you.?

My regional identity is a confused one.
I consider myself as being from Devon, since it's the county I've grown up and continue to live in, but I was born in Surrey. My ancestors come from all over England (see ancestry on the left).
