Just discovered my Population Finder results have been updated. Now I'm confused.
My original results were straightforward, if a little dull :-)
The ever-popular 100% European, with a "below the map" note of Orcadian.
Then, I sent my raw data to Dr. McDonald, who found a small but significant
.3 % Native American, which he explained can also reflect Sammi-rich Finnish.
Now, my PF results have been revised to:
95.38% European
4.62 % Middle East: Palestinian, Adygei, Bedouin, Bedouin South, Druze, Iranian, Jewish, Mozabite (error 1.74%)
What conclusions do I reach from this, beyond the likelihood that there seems to be "a little something else" that slipped in to my Scottish and Slovenian families!
All along, I'd hoped to find some possible Jewish heritage. Maybe this is it. (And not that Finnish non-paternal event I'd been speculating about.)
