Thread Name: BS: DNA test results
Subject: RE: BS: DNA test results
Here's mine:

England, Wales & Northwestern Europe 39%, Ireland and Scotland 33%,
Baltic States 15%, Eastern Europe and Russia 10%, Sweden 3%

I understand the British connections: England, Wales & Ireland especially, and Sweden would be those pesky Norsemen way back when poking their noses(?) in uninvited, but what I don't understand is the Baltic States and Eastern Europe and Russia. I am getting no matches for those areas at all.

But, I have come to the conclusion that it is only countries with people with disposable incomes who can afford luxuries like DNA tests (other than those tests imposed by police on non-productive members of society) where my DNA matches will show up. The Baltic States, Eastern Europe and Russia probably have more pressing life priorities than looking up their family trees online.
