| Topic | Anyone do one of those DNA/ancestry things? |
| TheCyborgNinja 01/14/18 8:43:58 PM #37: | ^Yeah, I didn't have to pay for mine. My mom's just obsessed with this stuff and got my dad to buy me one. If it was coming out of my pocket, I probably wouldn't have bothered. I'm about 3/4 German (73% Western Europe, but we can figure out where that all came from going back hundreds of years, and it's all Prussian from the looks of it based on geography and surnames). I got that from both my parents, obviously. The next ones were solely from my mom's side... Ireland/Scotland/Wales was second with 14%. Great Britain was next with 6%. The other three were trace regions. 3% respectively for Scandinavia and Finland/NW Russia with 1% Eastern Europe rounding things out. We assume the Scandinavian is Danish and the Eastern European is Polish (there's a Germanicized version of a Polish surname on my dad's side), but don't know with 100% certainty. As for Finland/NW Russia, it was a total surprise and we can't explain it. There's no evidence supporting that anyone in my family ever lived there, so it must've been somebody from that region migrating to Prussia... --- "message parlor" ? do you mean the post office ? - SlayerX888 ...
