Who are Anglo-Americans?

Anglo-Americans are Americans with ancestry primarily from England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland, and related northwestern European settler populations. The profile reflects colonial American, British Isles, later European immigrant, regional U. S. , and modern diaspora histories.

English is the main language. Anglo-American is a broad cultural and ancestry label, so regional pages such as Anglo-American Texas and Anglo-American Utah are useful for seeing how different U. S. settler-descended averages compare.

As a genetic reference, Anglo-American is useful for comparison with Anglo-American Texas, Anglo-American Utah, Dutch North Brabant, Flemish West Flanders, French Normandy Seine-Maritime, English, Welsh, Flemish Belgium, Cornish, and Dutch.

What is Anglo-American DNA closest to?

In the World Genetics modern G25 table, Anglo-American is closest to Anglo-American Texas, Anglo-American Utah, Dutch North Brabant, Flemish Belgium West Flanders, French Normandy Seine-Maritime, English, Welsh, Flemish Belgium, Cornish, and Dutch. The result places Anglo-Americans in a British Isles and northwestern European settler-descended comparison space.

What European populations are Anglo-Americans genetically closest to?

English, Welsh, Cornish, Dutch, Flemish, and French Normandy references are among the closest European matches.

Why do Dutch and Flemish references match Anglo-American DNA?

Northwestern European populations often overlap closely in G25 space, and Anglo-American ancestry commonly sits near English, Dutch, Flemish, and northern French references.

Is Anglo-American the same as English American?

Not exactly. It is a broader U. S. reference that can include English, Scottish, Welsh, Irish, Dutch, Germanic, French, and other northwestern European settler ancestry.
