| My grandad on my Mum's side is from Wales. My Gran on my mum's side is from the Isle of Wight, and we still have family over there now. My Mum thinks that the Isle of Wight side of the family originally came from France, though I can't remember if that's actual fact or something she just thought lol.
On my Dad's side, as far as I know, we're English and Brummie through and through :D | |

| So, I know quite a bit. Some of my lines I know back to BC times. So far I am American, Cherokee, Finnish, Swedish, Norweigen, German, French, English, Welsh, Irish, Scottish, Czech, Italian, and Greek. I have some kings in Sicily from way back when, a saint, and a lot of martyrs. One of my lines is very famous in the Catholic world and has an order or nuns and an order of monks named after it. My mom's side of the family has been in this country since the early or mid 1700's depending on which ancestor you are looking at. | |

Great grandma's German who married an Italian they moved to ireland where her oldest son married the love of his life, they moved to America...
While my Dad's Grandparents are both Sweetish(sp?) their daughter married a french man and they moved here to America

His real mum lives in scotland she wanted to see me but I don't really want to. I don't know how a grown women can leave a 5 week year old baby to run of with a man. | |

My dad is full blooded Cherokee Indian -grew up on a reservation and every thing-
and My moms family is like this - grandpa was Irish - German & Dutch and my grandma was Dutch.
So I'm half Indian & half Irish-German & Dutch - which means that I have a bad temper Ha-Ha | |

| Hmm...
Well, my dad's family is completely Norwegian :D His parents parents moved over to Minnesota (USA) from Norway, and the family's lived there ever since. My dad and a few of his cousins are the only ones out XD
And as for my mom's side, it's all Russian except for a teensy bit of Polish ^^ They came to America during the same generation as my dad's (luckily getting out before WWII was in place), and worked in New York for a while before moving to Chicago (both sets). My mom's family is Jewish, though my dad's isn't, and so my brothers and I have been raised as a Jew (wooooooo! XD).
So, without getting into much detail, that's my ancestry :D | |
