Hello Forum,

Australia,
Canada,
England,
US,
Ireland.

For me:

Ireland (Counties Cork, Kerry, Limerick and Mayo)
Scotland (Edinburgh, Glasgow)
England (Nottingham, London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Cornwall and Devon, Dorset, Merseyside and Liverpool and Gloucester)
France (Brittany, Occitanie, Aquitaine, Paris and Provence)
Germany (Rhineland)
The Netherlands (Amsterdam and Utrecht)
Sweden
Denmark
Norway
Faroe Islands
Iceland
Portugal (Lisbon)
Belgium
Switzerland
Czech Republic (Prague)
Hungary (Budapest and surrounding villages)

I'm a little all over Europe (and some research is extended into North America and Australia, as some distant great aunts and uncles migrated there after the Irish Famine). Most of my research is focused in Ireland, Scotland and England though.

Hi, although I selected the allowed 2 options of Ireland and Scotland I am also researching many other countries based on my tree research to date and based on my DNA results +/- matches with other trees:
Sweden, Finland, Norway, Denmark, Northern Ireland (Coleraine/Aghadowey area) and Eire (County Leitrim and Sligo), England, Australia and New Zealand, America and Canada, and particularly the Highlands and Islands of Scotland.

Why is Wales lumped together with England?

It's my understanding that it's to do with ancient monarchy;  Scotland had a king; England had a king;  Wales had a prince.

I'm as curious as Br1gau...

Regardless of 'ancient monarchy', England & Wales are 2 different Countries just the same as Scotland & Ireland etc?

My last names: Weigandt, Hergenrether are originally from Germany, but in the late 1700s the families emigrated to the Volga River Region in Russia.  Then in the late 1800s, part of the family moved to Entre Rios, Argentina.  I found german colony census lists very helpful in building my family tree.  Found free lists at https://www.alemanesvolga.com/censos.php that website is in spanish but its easy to search.  I hope it helps others researching.  If you have information on my surnames, please share as part of the family moved to the United States.

Scotland

Apart from my dad and maternal grandfather serving in Europe during WW2 &WW1 and my great grandfather being in Malta and Singapore as a piper in the 74th Highlanders my family hasn’t move much.

The bulk of them are in Angus with some Aberdeenshire.  I might have an ancestor born in Edinburgh Castle (the barracks) but I’ve not been able to verify that.
