AncestryDNA updated their genetic origins again in Aug 2019 (not sure why it’s taken me so long to take a look!). The only notable change in my own results is Germanic Europe has now been replaced by Norway.
Current Estimate | Previous Estimate | |||
England, Wales & Northwestern Europe | 77% | England, Wales & Northwestern Europe | 75% | |
East of England | East of England | |||
East Anglia | East Anglia | |||
Ireland & Scotland | 10% | Germanic Europe | 10% | |
Norway | 9% | Ireland & Scotland | 9% | |
Baltics | 2% | France | 4% | |
France | 2% | Baltic States | 2% |
With my mums results, her previous 100% England, Wales and Northwest Europe estimate has reduced to 95%, with the remaining 5% now going to Germanic Europe. My brothers results show the same thing, loosing 2% from England etc, (now at 91%) and 1% from Ireland/Scotland (now at 6%), with the remaining 3% now showing up as Germanic. Germanic Europe has also risen with my paternal half-aunts estimates from 4% to 16% (and she lost Sweden all together).
It’s interesting that I am the only one in my family to loose the Germanic link, which I originally thought was paternal but now looks to be maternal.
