I know the birthplaces of all my ancestors back to the start of censuses and nothing in my DNA matches suggest that my female ancestors were playing away. My one Irish ancestor is born somewhere in the 1700s, probably in southern Ireland.
With surnames like Rice, Adams and Edwards, I can imagine that some of my Devon ancestors originated from Wales.
But 11% Scottish? This has to be ancient DNA, widespread across England. I cannot see how it relates to any recent ancestors.
I wonder what surprising new ethnicity the next update will introduce. Portugese? Mongolian?
