More nuanced version of my pedigree chart, by municipality. On my father's side, everyone was born within 25m/40km of Winterswijk, which includes some Germany. His mother has 100% Winterswijk ancestry in the first 10 generations. My mother's side is mostly from North Brabant, with one Zeeland line.
