Icelandic, some Norwegian in there I guess since my name is Norwegian.

I'm Japanese.

So you're Dutch hmm? Hoe goed is je Nederlands dan eigenlijk?

Italian ancestry from my dad, Scandinavian from my mom.

Well I'm a unicorn that has a younger sister and I'm seamstress and fashion guru with hopes of one day making clothes for----oh wait---wrong profile. I'm a 31 year old white male with some german background. Interestingly enough I'm releated to Confederate General Joesph E. Johnston on my mother's side.

Witout a translator, that look like you're asking me how good my Dutch is. I can work my way though an old official document, and tell my gedoopt from my geboren. My people are from Zeeland, Texel, Noord Brabant, Gelderland, and Friesland.

I live in the US, I'm Caucasian/Japanese and my ancestry dates back like this:

Father's side: Irish and Norwegian. I do not know how far back it goes.

Mother's side: I know much more about his side -
Grandmother: Japanese, came to US after World War II.
Grandfather: Family can be traced back to 1790's Scotland, when they first came to the US.

Irish-Greek. Great grandad on my fathers side fled to New Zealand to hide from the black and tans in the 20's and my mums dad was from Kerry....though my grandma's family on that side came from Mykonos.

Guess I'm a genuine plastic paddy because I myself was born down here. Hell, my uncle visited the "old country" to try and trace back the family tree. He ended up in some poohole town with cracked out irish hobo's on the street and most of the town was dominated by a large factory anyway, so there's our "grand ancestry" for you. Even the clan name "Duffy" means "of the dark house" or something in Gaelic...so pretty sure our people were scoundrels and thieves

Heh, from all over the place then. I'm originally from Zeeland myself. Still, seems weird to hear someone say they're Dutch (or any ethnicity/nationality really) because of their ancestors so many centuries back, but barely even know the language. I met a Canadian guy last year, he had a Dutch father and a Mexican mother (or grandmother, I can't remember). The only Dutch things about him are his height and his name.

I'm a typical American mutt, my ancestry includes- English, German, French, Scottish, Spanish, Irish, American Indian, and possibly other countries as well. The (supposedly) oldest ancestor that I know of is a Saxon from around 1000 CE named Adam de Aldethly.

Huh... Same here, actually. I've got a lone Scotsman way back in my family too. I forget how long ago exactly, but it was 300-400 years.


Your ancestor's first name wasn't Alexander, was it?

I'm an American, I decend from Brits, Scots, Irish, First Peoples, and just a touch of either Polish or Germen, can never remember which.

Not so many centuries. My great grandfather (the family name) came over in 1892. My grandfather was the first one born here- 1911. He was tri-lingual- English, Dutch, Frisian. I never had the time to learn from him before he died- 1985.

The Dutch culture "thing" is strong here. Hell, I was born in Holland and went to school in Zeeland. I work in Borculo and have relatives buried in the Noodeloos, Vriesland, and North Holland cemeteries.

I am 75% Swedish and 25% Icelandic.

I believe it's mostly German and British. Possibly a bit of French and Irish as well, but I'm not so sure on that.

Interesting response I got from my grandfather when I asked him about our family history: What the hell you wanna know about them for, they're all horse thieve's.

Tracing my dad's family name, I think, would be a PITA since there's not a hell of a lot to go on, aside from names dating back to my great grandparents, and a rumor from my great uncle about our origins before coming to America. Come to think of it, that could be more than enough to go on.

I still want to know if there really are any horse thieve's in my family history.

I'm Scottish. Except I'm actually Scottish and every ancestor we can trace back for nearly 300 years is also Scottish. And I live in Scotland.

So yeah....Scottish.

I'm as Irish as Irishly possible, as were my ancestors and their ancestors.
( I'm even related to St. Patrick! (not really) )

Now excuse me, I must go for my daily dose of Guinness ( but first I'll eat some potatoes, can't drink on an empty stomach you know )

I figured, I don't know how I knew.

hum okay ill bite
im white native america
my great great grandma on my moms side came from Germany my great great granddad from my moms side came from Russia, My grandma on my dads side was native american, my great grandpa on my dads side was irish
the people i list are the last people who were pure what ever

My mom's side is Italian, Irish and Scottish and my father's side is Polish and Ukranian (he isn't exactly sure, but one of those eastern European countries).

English ancestry from my dad, Welsh ancestry from my mum. My grandad is actually Welsh so it doesn't go back that far.

I'm half Japanese, half English and Irish. My English grandfather was in the RAF in WWII, was assigned road duty and was ran over, the operation would have a 50/50 chance of either killing him or prolonging his life for 6-8 months, he rejected treatment and lived for a further 30 years. He became involved in tax law, and did the tax for the kinks and the RAC and wrote columns for the Country Gentleman's Association. He went a nobody from london to a wealthy and renowned professional in his field.

To me, he was determination incarnate.

I don't know very much about my Japanese side, other than my Japanese grandfather is a chimney-jack and my Japanese grandmother used to be a lecturer on astronomy. =P

Don't have the slightest idea. I don't know the name of any family member outside immediate family and have no clue where any of them came from.

I do burst into flame under direct moonlight, though, so as far as ethnicity I can say "maximum caucasian" with some confidence.

Far as I know I'm Korean. But I was adopted into the US at age 2ish into a middle-class white family so...yeah...that's where my mentality lies.

Don't know anything about actual ancestory (was abandoned, no parental knowledge). Don't even know my real birthday, I was assigned one by the doctors in Seoul. Could be why I don't care about celebrating such things.

Completely Indian, to the extent of my knowledge.. There aren't many documents about my family so I couldn't tell you if there was perhaps a Brit in there or something, but Indian as far as I know.
