I think you are right about gremlins in the system, Nova67. The gremlins do however seem to have been sorted overnight and so it is worth looking at the results again.

When I looked at the beta inheritance for my parents last night it had a breakdown using the terms such as Early Connecticut and New York Settlers and Class Conflict and the Social Gospel. However this morning the breakdown has reverted to Scotland, England and Northwest Europe and Norway.

I've gone from 1% Norwegian to 6% each Sweden and Denmark, and Germanic Europe all off my English %!.  My wife's has gone from 3% Norway to12% Sweden and Denmark.

Both of us has exclusively English ancestry on all lines as far back as I have managed to trace

My Scottish Ancestry from who knows where has turned Irish but only half of it,  my Swedish Danish bit has disappeared and I need a straightforward explanation of the chromosome painter.  I wish they colours were a little more distinctive too.

Previous estimate

England & Northwestern Europe 70% now 77%
Scotland 21% now 10% Irish
Norway 4% now 9%
Sweden & Denmark 3% gone
Wales 2% now 4%

Confused.

Was there a Sweden and Denmark Category before this update?

Yes, there was but mine has disappeared.  Have modified my post to show the changes. Looking at it maybe Norway now covers Sweden and Denmark as well?  Not sure the Swedes and Danish would approve!  :-)

My tree is exclusively welsh and england back to 1700's.  Something is very wrong with this update.  Be interesting to see if anyone else had lost their english mix to the germans :)

Mine changed slightly...Irish 90%, Scottish 4% (down from 8%), got my England & North West Europe back (it vanished In a previous update), now 4% and still have the 2% Norwegian.

15 % Khoisan, Aka & Mbuti people
10% Eastern Europe & Russia
7% Early Connecticut & New York
Settlers
6 % Class Conflict & the Social Gospel
1% Town & Country
