Comments:

1. Quebec (aka "New France") -- in accordance with paper documents, our Quebec maternal ancestors came to the new world from France starting in about 1650. So to be historically more correct, this DNA component hails from France via "New France lands" that officially became the British Province Quebec in 1763 by British Crown mandate.

2. The listed small paternal 2% DNA from Ireland is beyond written proof... this DNA percentage could be more logically be explained from the maternal side Anderson ancestry.  Any paternal Irish component is not supported by primary or secondary written documents, so this paternal source from Ireland remains unknown (perhaps forever unknowable).
