Just for fun: What type of Germanic are you?

[J. Ketch]

According to what ? I have a Norman last name and according to real science I plot in Surrey England and southern England has more of a continental pull than other parts of the British isles.

AI Overview



According to a 2012 New York Post article, researchers developed a "genetic GPS" tool that analyzes DNA to determine a person's geographic ancestry, sometimes within 60 miles. This technology, officially known as spatial ancestry analysis, uses DNA markers to pinpoint ancestral origins, with increasing accuracy in Europe and globally as more data is collected.

Key Aspects of the "Genetic GPS" (as reported in 2012):
Purpose: Identifies where in the world a person's ancestors originated using DNA.
Technology: Uses "spatial ancestry analysis" based on subtle genetic mutations.
Accuracy: Could pinpoint origin within 60 miles, particularly for those with European ancestry at the time of the report.
Purpose: Helps people learn their fundamental genetic history and aids in understanding how genes influence diseases and drug responses.

^You see for real science you have to geek out at the linux command line when it comes to genetics :

You have an Irish surname, not Norman. 1/2 Irish, 1/4 English/British, 1/4 Alsatian = majority Insular Celtic.

I have a hiberno-norrman surname that can also be found in Scotland and England. It also, in its original form, originated from Kent England. Americans never really know what they are until one does the science :

^as you can see Americans wrongly thought they were of certain ancestries but the science told them they were wrong. You can't argue with the science.

We've long established that G25 moderns are dogshit, but sadly everyone and their mum across the internet seems to use them as a reference.

Most people are aware that G25 doesn't work very well for NW Europeans due to shared Bell Beaker ancestry. G25 is really just a way to pass the time. I don't think anyone takes it too seriously.

I don't know how to use this but I'm sure I would score Bavarian because that's the only typa German I got.

I assume that the Balts are the northernmost population on PCA, hence this kind of deviation.

Don't need a test. Going Dutch emotionally, financially, spiritually. If it rains it's still a plan.
