One set of identical twins, two different ancestry profiles.
At least that's the suggestion from one of the world's largest ancestry DNA testing companies.
Last spring, Marketplace host Charlsie Agro and her twin sister, Carly, bought home kits from AncestryDNA, MyHeritage, 23andMe, FamilyTreeDNA and Living DNA, and mailed samples of their DNA to each company for analysis.

My sister and I have considered this for awhile. My results from two compnies. My mother and her, with Ancestry.
Anyway this article hints at the answer; the origin redictions, are subject to several variables, not the least of which is it id fairly new science.
One company I tested with is "Living DNA," a British-centric firm. To them most everything is British.
