    My roots in America go back to the 1600's on both my parents' sides so I don't have any "fresh off the boat" relatives to go by. I recently took an ethnicity DNA test and the results were:

    Great Britain 27%
    Ireland 25%
    Scandinavia 21%
    Italy/Greece 10%
    Iberian Peninsula 6%
    Western Europe (Germany, France, Austria) 4%
    Caucasus 3%
    Finnish/Northern Russia 2%
    Eastern Europe <1%
    Near East/Asia <1%
