The Vikings took over swaths of Ireland, Scotland -- they were the first apparent settlers on some of those islands -- and England. If you get your DNA 'done', you can anticipate perhaps 35 percent Scando. Having Danish ancestry will really pile in more. :^)

My original ancestors came to Scotland from those other places during the reign of King David of Scotland. They fought with him in the 12th Century (I think) and were awarded land in Scotland. They left Scotland during the Clearances in the mid-1700's and came to American right before the Revolutionary War. My original ancestor from Scotland fought with Washington. Pictures of me when I was 17 show my ancestry very clearly. :-) My baby brother and I in 1972.

3% in my case. 48% Scots/Irish, 41% English and 8% German. Nothing unexpected except the Nordic, but I know that the Norse and the Scots have an interesting interwoven ancient history. Pretty much straight up white boy and proud of it.
