I have the same problem. With 66% English ancestry in about 1600, it says I have 68% West European, 18% English and 9% Irish. <br /><br />Their explanation is that they are measuring deep ancestry, dating back thousands of years, (but they don't say how many thousand!), and the results are approximate at this time. <br /><br />At least they found my <1% Native american this time! And found <1% Pacific Islander too - that's a real mystery!<br /><br />Randy Seaverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17477703429102065294noreply@blogger.com
