Interesting that Orkney has 3 of the 17 gene types. My family are from one (West side) and my wife another (Westray) haven't seen any detail about it but Norway has a big influence for obvious reasons but Westray is a small island which had a large number of Spanish from the armada take refuge, they have always been darker skinned and very dark hair. My wife's maternal family name is Costie which obviously is a little telling too?
