I haven't had it yet. Hope I don't lose my 2% Norwegian...had it when I first did the DNA test, then it vanished for a few years  but returned with the last update.

Would like to see at least some of my 50% Italian ancestry appearing.

Update happened to my Wife and my results.

Town & Country 22% ?????????

Early Connecticut and New York Settlers ?????  6% WTF and who cares.

Immediate thoughts, Tech Staff who wrote the algorithms must have been on a heck of a bender for a few weeks.

 ;D

They've found some Sweden and Denmark for me now  ::) ::) ::)

and I've still got those  Ohio Settlers . 

Add - To think that many of those who test on Ancestry do the test to find out their about ethnic origins !!

There do seem to be some gremlins in the system.

When I go to my account profile page it is saying 20% Ostroleka County and Surrounds and then it will say Scotland when you go into it. Then going on the DNA profile page for the ethnicity estimate it will say 20% Scotland. The 2% Irish on the profile page is just grey and doesn't say anything until you click on it.
