Do you know your heritage?

[Bridey]

I am German, Welsh & French

[glw]

I'm almost entirely Scottish, with a tiny bit of Slovak.
(Thus the crazy hair.)

[Deleted]

I'm half Slovak and the other half is a mix of a little bit of everything (though the largest portion is Welsh).

[pilife]

I'm half Turkish and half Texan.

Literally as far back as we can go, we have been in Texas. My Uncle did some research and found out that we came from across the pond, but I'm not sure where. Apparently when we got here we went straight to Texas and never left.

[alabasterangel]

Scottish with a bit of Irish and English and German.

[duff]

Mostly Scottish and Mexican and then a little bit of everything else.

From my dad's side: German and Scottish

No not really, just trying to get the board moving.

[alabasterangel]

But important enough to post about the general unimportance of.. Right.

[conradtn]

There is Scottish, Irish and German that I know of.

[shorty20]

Mostly German, little bit Irish and Swiss

[sitnspin]

My mom is adopted, but she claims to be Italian. My dad is German and English.

[OrangePixyStix]

Dad's side is Croatian. I take after this side the most.

Mom's side is Irish and Belgian mix, which explains my love of alcohol.

Then why post? Go plant a tree or something.

[MissusTexas]

I'm German, Irish, Scottish, English, and Native American (Cherokee)

[louietunes]

European Mutt: Scottish, English, German, and French.

[lizardesque]

German. Luxembourgian, Polish, French-Canadian, Norwegian

[darkling_glory]

I am 100% Italian. My dad's dad came over on the boat in '47. My mom's dad came over shortly before that. Both of my grandmother's were born here, but my maternal great-grandmother's were born in Italy.

My paternal grandfather was from Bari and my paternal grandmother from Calabria. My mother's grandmother was Calabrese as well. I believe my maternal grandfather was all Barese.

My husband is a mix of Scottish, Irish and German and sometimes doesn't understand my crazy Italian family. Part of the reason I didn't change my last name is that BOTH of our last names are very ethnic and so is my first name. My first name with his last name didn't sound very nice put together.

That's why I didn't drop my middle name and replace it with my maiden name.

Maiden name: very German
Married name: very French

[lizo11]

From my mom's side: German, Polish, Finish, and a tiny bit of both French and Irish.

From my dad's side: Irish. My grandfather was adopted from Ireland, and brough over by an American family, and my grandmother came over with her family.

[Trouble]

Scottish, English, Irish, german, and Native american (blackfoot I believe). My great Grandmother on my moms side was either full or half english and my grandmother on my dad's side is Irish. My grandfather on my dad's side was german.

[MyName]

I am mostly Irish and Italian, but my grandfather traced a relative back to the Mayflower so there is a little English too.

[macmars45]

I am Italian, English, Canadian and French... and probably some other stuff.

[mayflowers22]

I'm French, German, and Scottish.

[Deleted]

I know there's German and Irish, but that's about it. I mostly claim my German roots, because they are the "strongest"...my grandma was born and raised there and my mom was born there and lived there for a while, so I had more exposure to my German roots.

[winofairy]

Welsh, English, and German
