Wolfdog is likely kin to all of us with early American roots. His last name is Danish through the Scotts. It means son of the dark stranger.

23&Me filed bankruptcy a while back. The company was bought by same person and continued ops.

The data changes as more and more generic info is compiled. The DNA companies advise you to continually check your info on their app for updates. Your ancestry will gradually be narrowed down more accurately. I learned this by reading up on it before I participated.

I am on the left. My dad is on the right. This is what Ancestry says I am currently.

It also says I am 1% the Netherlands, it just doesn't fit on the screenshot.

It originally said I was only 4% German. At one point it said I was 68% England and North West Europe. It changes a lot everytime they post new data.

Populations were never static. Countrys' borders and even the countries themselves are mostly relatively recent. Most European countries border multiple other countries. A man made line you could step over makes your nationality different in a fraction of a step.

The data basically just says I'm Western European.

Right. If they classify enough, it'll change.

When I first did it, it showed 18% Ireland. That swapped to 18% Scotland.

The Scandinavian / Swede part, I know as true. My grandmother went back over on vacation and stayed a week with her relatives in Sweden and saw the house her family grew up in. Her mother (my great great grandmother) came over on the boat and only spoke Swede).

It's just a Big Government DNA Grab.

It's already been used to find a killer. The cops found a suspects sibling had done one of those tests so they got that DNA to match to the brother.
