What is your heritage?

pure irish

God we Irish seem to get around, must be our love of travel. Everyone here is so exotic, my birthline is about as plain as water, as far as i can tell im sixth generation irish on both sides, Guinness officially runs in my veins. Hope everyone behaves themselves on Paddys day.... lol!

im not dreaming of the future, im not singing of the past, im not thinking about the first time, i never think about the last
 
Lineage......

My Father is Yugoslavian from the beautiful city of Dubrovnik. He still looks like a warrior-- rugged and wild.

Mom is Nordic........tall, blonde, a true Ice Princess, with eyes as blue as the sea.
 
You are not alone, Rover. I am three-quarters Irish Protestant (from Cavan, Clare, Meath and Armagh), one-eighth Irish Catholic, one-sixteenth English (from Devon) and one-sixteenth Indian (from Lahore), although you'd never know it to look at me, as I have blue eyes and not-all-that-dark hair. If you go back several centuries, there is some Scottish, some Huguenot, some Danish and some Dutch, but that is so remote that I do not count it. I never call myself English, or Irish. Rather, I refer to myself as London-Irish.

Mostly Greman, but with Irish, English, Welsh, and yes I'll admit it Boheme too. Joke all you want, but find me a people with better cooks :)

That's on my mother's side, not too sure about my father's except for mostly German.
 
heritage..

A good old mix up...

Dad was Polish/Italian

Mum is Irish/Welsh

So guess I'm all of that with lashings of Somerset on top....

pass the cherry, just to finish with...:p
 
My mom is German.

My father is half french, quarter german, quarter English. Much of his ancestry established itself in the deep south where he was born. He moved to D.C. at a young age.

I look german. I am above all else, a Washingtonian.

God bless Washington D.C.!!!
 
Hey all. I am half Inuit, half "settler". My white half of the family was a mixture of Indian, English, French and Scottish people. Legend has it that out great-great-great grandfather may have been a black man who jumped a slave ship. Don't know if that is true but...
 
Papi is a Mutt

My mother is Slovak and my father is from all over Europe hee hee...pero mi corazon y mi alma es puro latino...my background is heavily influenced by latino culture and passion ;o) Me encantan las latinas :O)
 
WOW...there are so many interesting backgrounds here...keep it going ;o)
 
My roots

50% Russian (both dad's and mom's side)
25% Hungarian (dad's side)
25% Italian (mom's side)
less than 1-2% Austrian, English, & Swedish (mom's
side....very distant relations)


So you can call me a mixed mutt :D

I'd have to say I'm American and made up of irish, scotish, english, german, and indian(choctaw and cherokee) *S* not sure of anything else
 
My heritage

My father is Mexican and my mother is Puerto rican/West Indian
-Cipher:)
 
90 % scottish, and then a tiny mixture of irish, french, english, and german. I've been told there there is some native american in here somewhere, but I haven't been able to trace it.
 
Irish - Native American- (mothers side) German (bio father side)
 
Well, seems like so far, i'm the only Greek board member....

I'm 100% Greek, my entire lineage can be traced back to ancient Greece, way back in the day when they worshipped Zeus...I'm first generation in America, both of my parents were born and raised in Greece, until they came over here some 30 years ago...Its funny though, amongst the people i know, i'm "greek", yet when i go over to greece, i'm "american"...go figure!
 
My father is half black, half Samoan
My mother is half black Jamaican, a quarter white (not sure of the origin) and a quarter Puerto Rican.

I'm your basic run-of-the-mill American mutt.
