So I am presented with this choice on PF (emphases mines). Only my paternal side is Ashkenazi Jewish. Maternal side is Irish and some old Colonial lines. Why does PF finder apparently ignore the Irish & Colonial lines?
I've no idea what to select here.
I did make this choice once a couple of weeks ago - Jewish. I expected that I'd be able to change it, but was not. Now that the choice is back (apparently after a survey asking how many of my gr-grandparents were of Ashkenazi descent), I do not see the value in it.
Thoughts from anyone?
