My results from my DNA test finally became available today.
An interesting makeup.
I’m not surprised about the England, Northwestern Europe, Scottish, and Irish.
The England & Northwestern Europe group also contains the French, so that’s where the Dagenais would have originated from before settling in Eastern Canada as the Acadians.

The fact that Germany, France, England, and other regions are all lumped together really isn’t that surprising.
For the last 10 thousand or so years the people that lived in these regions would invade and conquer their neighbours on a never ending rotating manner.
For example the people know as the Brittons today only share a tiny bit of DNA with their original ancestors from just 5,000 years ago.
The Indigenous Americas would be from my paternal grandmother.
I received a bunch of notifications about potential relations, most from the Dagenais and Waniandy side of my family tree. Nothing from the Gill side.
It does look as if my grandmother might actually have only been 1/2 Cree and not full Cree. Her mother’s maiden name seems to originate from Albania. Have to do some more digging.
Anyways, that’s enough for now.
