My great grandparents were both 100% from Sweden. Both had dark hair, and my Dad joked a lot that his ancestors had been to the coast of Spain.

Yep. And consider the "black Irish" -- blue or green eyes, fair skin and black hair.

“Yep. And consider the “black Irish” — blue or green eyes, fair skin and black hair.”

I have read various takes on “black Irish” but at least some of the native Irish stock migrated from Iberia.

Sticking with the Scandinavians alone, their wide travels during their Viking heyday have been fairly well mapped.

Swedes through Russia, Ukraine to Turkey. (Words “Rus” and “slav” derive from nordic-Germanic language).

The coast of the Mediterranean. Norwegians, Danes west along the Atlantic coast, to Paris, and west to North America.

Erik’s band were settled in North America for a few years. No telling if the donor of the Indian dna went under duress, or freely.
