It is dreadful on long asian surnames! They always leave the little people out!

What I do know

F - Thai
M -German

 

[johenmo]

Paternal - england, denmark, germany (parents came from UK).
Maternal - england

sounds right. Interesting distribution map. Danish sounds more interesting.

 

[JTLP]

Paternal - English
Maternal - Spanish

Does not sound right...we were always told Scandinavian for Maternal
