DNA Sequencing Megathread! Neanderthals, Denisovans and other ancient DNA!

A friend has pointed out my heritage has updated their estimates. Showing more regional stuff in their maps.
For me it remains pretty broad, north east england & scotland group, all ireland and scotland group, etc...
His though has one local enough to a small 20km square area in Switzerland.

Oh yeah we did that and mine is wildly Irish Sea based. Basically all the eastern bits of Ireland (Leinster and Ulster), plus Scotland and Wales. It says England and then you click on it and it actually means Isle of Man

It is very precise though - calling out specific bits of Wexford and County Down where I know I have ancestors from.

To all you bitches who mocked me earlier for paying for these services:  both Ancestry and 23andMe capture health markers too, and you can separately have those analyzed.  Well, my dad had me test him with Ancestry and when I analyzed his health markers via a service called Promethease, it uncovered that he has a rare disease called LG Muscular Dystrophy and that it runs in his family (I'm a carrier, as is my brother and all of our cousins), which after I let him know, he talked to his doctor about and he's now getting some sort of treatment for.  So, fuck all y'all.  Love, Cal.

Dang, Cal- glad they caught it. All the forms of MD suck (my father-in-law has Becker MD that's only started progressing quickly over the last couple of years).

Thanks.

Not DNA related, but I've had a more recent check on my family lineage.
I always had trouble finding my ancestors prior to Rouen, Normandy.

Now, someone did the work for me

1295, Moyaux, Normandy.  My family traveled around Normandy and eventually fled toward Saint-Claire-sur-Elle to avoid the 100 Hundred Years War and the English depredation.  So, no English DNA (ouf! ).  Scandinavian DNA still a possibility due to Normandy location near Rouen.
