Basically this is a biological confirmation of what has long been known from linguistics (the regional vocabulary based an Scandinavian origins), and from history (the Viking invasions, and the Danelaw of Northern England).

Blam, Got any idea where to one find original surnames?

We stayed in “Larg”, a small tourist town (on the seacoast at the end of the rail line) in the Strathclyde area (over the border in Scotland, well North of Liverpool) and in the town square was a statue of a Viking. To me, this was strong evidence that it was originally a Viking town.

Why would the victims of their murder and pillage put up a statue to them? Viking settlers put up the statue.

The name itself - “Larg” - sounds a lot more Norwegian than it does Scottish.
