Without doing a mail-order government accessible DNA test...British fully on Dad's side (both his folks), except: Viking Raiders that stayed on...so Scandinavian back lots of years. Scot (McNaughton), Irish (O'Cannon), and a tad of Frog (DeFur).

The German connection dates back to the Crusades when the the Normans and Saxtons were not having a friendly relationship.

Apparently at least one Norman and one Saxon had a friendly relationship!
Personally, I find these DNA tests frightening. You pay money to turn your DNA information over to a completely unregulated database that is free to sell that information to insurance companies, healthcare providers, government agencies, etc, etc. Not only do you make that choice for yourself, but for all your relatives whether they consent or not. Believe me, I'm as far from being a tinfoil hat guy as you can get, but this is scary. Those that rail against FB, Google and other social media info collectors should really be keeping an eye on the DNA harvesters.
It’s done every day at the docs office when people sign the HIPPA form.I've always scratched me nodge over WHY anyone would subject themselves to such an intrusive and well disseminated glob of truly personal data.

A simple: "Yes" will do.If these tests were historically thorough, wouldn't they show us all to be African?
