Great! I find that my updated results are brilliants and make a lot of sense.

On paper I am about 2/3 English so my English seems a bit low. My communities are spot-on, my English is all southern. In the little villages my ancestors are from there are still street names and farms with my ancestors’ surnames.

My Scottish seems too high from what I know on paper, and my Irish probably too low.

My grandad was Irish. One of his grandparents was perhaps northern Irish, which could have a Scottish link, but that’s only my gg-grandmother. I have another gggg-grandmother who’s Scottish, but that’s it for known Scottish in my tree. I have an additional ggg-grandmother who was Irish.

I have a ggg-grandfather who was Welsh (my male line) and a ggg-grandfather who was German. Both of these could be about 3% so may explain the Welsh and Germanic Europe scores.

I notice lots of English and Scottish score a small amount of Norwegian. I don’t have any known ancestors.

Always fun to get a new update

My mom's:



Maybe a tad more accurate. At least, there is some sign of Italian, although it's still far from a quarter (even including the Balkans, which is a stretch). Sweden and Balkans make no sense whatsoever. I guess they're going the Vahaduo route and using the Balkans to cover both Slavic and Mediterranean genes.

Prior results were

Spoiler!

50% Germanic Europe
43% Eastern Europe and Russia
3% England, Wales, and Northwestern Europe
2% Baltics
1% Greece and Balkans
1% Sardinia

Would you mind posting your GEDmatch results (K13/K15)?

looks good. pretty much the same for me but instead of southern/eastern broad category, they changed it to just southern india. Its accurate. Dont get the point of highlighting bangladesh and part of northeast india though lol. They're quite different from south indians given their east asian mix.

Yeah i'm not sure why they did that. They did something similar with the Northern China category, highlighting a tiny region in Northern Bhutan

LOL why northern bit of bhutan specifically? makes no sense. they might as well highlight entire northern himalayan stretch, western china overall as well under northern china (except for xinjiang given the uygurs).

I'm keeping an open mind that I could be Scottish but lowland Scots are Germanic and very close to the English genetically anyway. I don't think I'm Irish though.

Dude you said you know you are irish and that even your surname is irish. Why do you now you say you are not irish? You are probably a mix of irish and english. You know that though.

Excuse me, are you on Gedmatch? The updated Vahaduo Eu K13 oracle has a few regional references for France in case you didn't know.
