Well some folks will always dream of 'racial purity' till they get their

99.8% European, 96.1% Northwestern European. 23andMe at one point decided
everybody had to have sub-Saharan genes <= 0.1%.  Then there is 0.1%
unassigned. Wouldn't want anybody claiming racial purity, would we?

They group French & German but only show Baden-Württemberg as the best
match, followed by Bavaria which is consistent with what I know of my
family.

British % Irish is also combined at 1.2%, although the match is to County
Limerick. Then there's 3.7% Eastern European but they don't break that
down to any specific area. Must have been a Hun in the woodpile.

Pretty boring and a lot of it is pure guesswork. 

 
I dread to think where my ancestors were from.
