I did the Ancestry test and got a fairly large (8%) amount of Scandinavian, which was weird because I have no known ancestors from there. I guess it must be Viking settlers in England, Scotland, and Ireland, so that shows it can go back pretty far.
There was also a small (2%) amount of Iberian, and I have no idea where that came into the picture. Same for 1% North African. Maybe some of my ancestors were Moors.
