    Ancestry is cheap for a reason.

    Their data on you is what makes them rich, not charging you to do a basic lookup.

    Ah, I see what you mean....

    Nope, it seems to be redirecting me to their Irish page. Used a VPN and it still did so maybe my VPN is just crap!

    Starting to believe these type of services are a con.
    Every time they update the ancestry report it changes dramatically
    Was mostly irish and European with a bit of Mongolian(the hell if i know) that then changed to Korean, then the Asian vanished and was 100% European, that has now change, im part North African now.
    Funny thing is 1 grandparent is Spanish and this has never show up on the results.
    Family names are North European , yet now map has remove Northern European ancestry ,im pale white 1.9m tall N.European looking, i suspect ill have some south American Indian or black African ancestry in a update or two.
