I've spent over 30 years working on my family history and have documented most male lines back to the 17th Century. My DNA tests show similar results to yours, and I can't find a connection. Maybe it was invaders into the British Isles.

Your ancestors - there are very few people with European ancestry that do not have Viking blood in them.

@jshm2 I once heard that if you're ancestry is Irish, you'll have some Viking blood. Probably true of other ethnicities, as well.
Tennessee · 46-50, F
@LeeInTheNorthWoods The test even says I have Ireland/Scotland and Wales in me and also Germany.
