Genealogically, I know that I am Scots, Irish, English, Swiss, and German, but a photo exists that makes me wonder about my gg-granddaddy. He's somewhat up for grabs, IMHO.
I haven't dug deep into why, but I heard that with the XX vs XY chromosomes, that it may be easier for male DNA to get more specific. I haven't researched it much. If someone knows that a different company gets more specific, I'd love to try it.
