Scottish (gotta love them too!)
German(you don't have to but they have a cool language)
Italian(not alot though)
Canadian(cool)

but i wish i was living in one of the top 4! i live in the stupid USA

I like Orange Phoenix wouldn't have a clue what my ancestry is byond about three generations and as far as i know my great grand parents to parents where born within the island of Ireland, although my grandmothers maiden name is Dore which i think is french.

I'd love to look into the genealogy of my family abit further back. I might find out i'm descended from the Vikings or something.

How cool.....
i know my ancestors are from india.
But not exactly the area
I know it's Northern India though

I may have distant cousins.....now i live in FL, USA

When i get older....see my plan........read down

Every single descendant of mine came from southern China.

But I'm the first person to be born and raised in the United States.

Oh!
How cool......
i wasn't the first born here......
my cousin who is 5 did......
But i'm a proud indian and a proud hindu!

My ancestors on my mother's side are Irish and my father's side is Welsh and Scottish, although both my mother and father have some English sprinkled in there.

Although since my family has been here (America) since the revolutionary days I'm American.

Mom's side:


Great-great-great grandmother full blooded Cherokee Indian, she married a full blooded Irish immigrant. great-great grandmother 1/2 Cherokee 1/2 irish, she married an irish/scottish man... great grand mother Cherokee/Irish/Scot... she marries 1/2 Cherokee 1/2 Irish man... Grandma is a mix... Mom is a mix plus a little more irish and cherokee.


Dad's side:
Great grand ma was Creole and Indian/Scottish.... she married a Scottish man. Grandma is mixed, married a man that was about 3/4 Scottish. My Dad is a mix of Scottish, INdian, German, and a bunch of other things...

Me? I can still list "Native-American" on the ethnic question... And according to my father, he's had his family tree traced back to the Scottish Poet Robert Burns (my dad himself is a Burns... and I still have yet to see the family tree that traces us to Robert Burns...)

HOw I name my heritage... "I'm Cherokee/Old World" becuase my dad's side has so many nationalities in it that I can't name them all

Hello HP fans..........I'm from Argentina on South America and my parents too...............my great grandmother cames from Italy and emmigrate to this country during the second world war and started a new life here...........Greetings to all.......Kbezzon

I was born and raised in the same little town in Minnesota aka Spam Town, (not real name and has nothing to do with the internet).
On my dad's side, I am Bohiemian and German.
On my mom's side I am British, Irish, Norwiegian, and Bohiemian.

Thats about it for me.

ok - this is going to be reallly boring but i thought id post it anyway

Mother and Father - Pureblooded English
Grandparents - Pureblooded English

Me - id like to say im part italian...but im not. Boring old English pureblood

Apparently theres some italian somewhere in the family line, but no-ones sure where!! (lot of good that is!)

I live in England. My mum and dad were born in England, my Grandma's and Grandads were born in England and i know that my Great Grandad was as well because he fought in the war so i guess my great Grandma must have been as well.

Bit boring really, all English.....

I'm from the uk. England. Its raining, foggie, Cold and not fun. I dont have Grandparents now but im sure they were all british aswell

I live in the U.S. but my ancestors were British and Swiss. One of these days, I'm going to visit England and see the country some of my ancestors left. I've always wanted to see what England is like.

Oh, wow! So many British people coming here lately!! At last!! I'm not alone!! **tee hee**

Oliver - couldn't agree more I think I've forgotten what the sun looks like....

Dana_Scully Sun you say? Whats one of them? I think that is a thing i seen about four years ago (and i wasnt in the uk). lol Oh how i love the uk and its tea.

i LOVE tea....
well........i'm not british, but i have british influences, my ancestors came to guyana from India, in which they worked for the british people.
Yeah......but i don't want to visit England...NO!!!!

I WANT TO LIVE IN ENGLAND!!!!!!!

yup.......
my friends say i'm obsessed with Great Britiain......and i admit it

hence my username......Anglophile
check it up in a dictionary, and you'll see why it's my username!!!!!

well I'm an English Smith. So I am probably made up of
English 1/3, Irish 1/16th, Scotish 1/16th and Welsh 1/16th and any other invadé from Europe. who knows? :-S

My mum's side is all Scottish until she moved to England and married my dad who was all English (with some Scottish somewhere)

I am 1/4 English and 3/4 Scottish

About four years ago, my mum was saying about how she wanted to go back to Scotland. So we moved, and that is where I am now - where I think I should be. It's kinda cool, because I can speek Gaelic really easily as my Grandad used it a lot.

So, my family has never moved out from this small island...

oh so you all seem to be european or of european ancestory. well im a pacific islander! my father is from the Phillipines and my mom is somewhat well just caucasian, im pretty sure shes scotish though... however as of now I live in the US, Myrtle Beach, I so badly want to move though!!!

my mum side born in - turkey
dad side- turkey
so i'm from- TURKEY

well Dana_Scully
i live in florida.........southern Florida.......and as many people know
1. It's always HOT!
2. It's FLAT!

the particular reason i want to move to England is because it's land is so beautiful, i love the landscape
plus i love the weather it's cold, and rainy......it's perfect to me!

i have always lived somewhere that is flat
born in st. lucia- a small island nothing special
lived in Guyana- FLAT FLAT HOT HOT!!!
now in florida- FLAT FLAT HOT HOT!!!

nothing's wrong with florida, i somewhat find myself wanting to live in Engalnd ALOT more the Florida

another thing i like is that, their are many indians in England
if you look here in Florida it's got many spanish people,nothing's wrong with spanish people i have loads of spanish friends..but i feel alone sometimes

in my school there are like less than 5 students who are indians including me and my brother.

so there you have it!

oh and i also like the british boys with their british accent

I'm danish, and all my family too.

Boring.

oh Jara... i'm like that too.......
my whole family is indian
100%
boring........

well thanks for saying that Jara

i think every culture is interesting and important, that's because well, you're danish i'm indian, if you learn more about my culture it will be interesting...same if i learn more about your culture......

i'm proud to be indian!
my forparents came from India and i'm 100% proud!!!

and you should be too.......

I'm from the United States.

I would like to move to London some day. I was there for a week last year (Spring Break) and I did not want to come home. The culture is quite a bit different from the US. More weight is put on theatre and arts. There's not enough of that in the US.

I´m from Spain and I believ all my family is too.

I am from Bonny Scotland (for those of you who don't know thats the country at the top of the UK lol) I love the place but the weather is terrible lol and theres also the fact that JKR is from there and Robert Burns it just goes to show that for all we're a small country our people have big achievements.

My family i think are all from Scotland except theres a possibility one of my Gradmothers are Russian and I think one of my aunts was born in India when my Grandparents used to live there.

Thanks for complimenting Scotland I know its an absolutely beautiful country but you can'tfully appreciate it unless you visit someewherre like the highlands because thats where Scotlands true beauty is held. I am personally from Glasgow but love going hillwalking in our local hills the campsies there are streams that are beautiful small waterfalls wildlife of all kinds. Sorry getting carried away with myself lol.

Scotland is a very beautiful country. I spend my last holiday in Edinburgh and Glasgow.


I´m from germany and all the rest of my whole family.

Happy St. David's Day to all the Welshies, whether actually in Wales for it or not!

Sorry...a trifle self indulgent, but there we are....

who?

only kiddin...

Found a nice recipe (not that i've ever tried it) for a random Welsh dish if anyones interested: Cawl


Bring on St. George's Day (April 23rd)

Hallo~ I'm from South East Asia~I'm proud to be an Asian~

Let me see: Dad's side is from Miri Malaysia, Mom's side is from Labuan Malaysia and my great grand mother was a Chinese. Now, I live in Brunei which is a small country and unpopular(perhaps), haha! Brunei has oil and gas *sighs* but it's cool to live here as there is no air pollution. Asians boys especially Taiwanese are good looking Woops!

My entire fmily is from England. As far as we have been able to trace back.

Okay let's see...I was brought up in Malaysia but now am living in New Zealand.

The breakdown of my ancestry/heritage is...I'm half Malaysian Chinese, a quarter Straits (those from Malaysia would know what I mean...) and a quarter Thai.

I look like the typical Chinese (which annoys me at times ) but am the most UN-Chinese person you could come across. Don't get me wrong, I'm proud to be a Chinese, it's just that I wasn't brought up the traditional "Chinese way"...heck, I can't even speak Chinese!!

I was born and raised and are still living in Australia, my heritage, is Irish, German, Cornish & Welsh.
But according to history, my surname Hughes is derived from the French.

well i was born in Hungary, my perents were born in Hungary and my grand-grand-grand......parents were born in Hungary too. :-)


i really like living here, and all that i can say is:

HUNGARIAN HORNTAIL ROCKS!!! :-)

OH! I'm South East Asian too, Pakistani, and very proud as well!! Hmm, luckily, I had to do a project on my family history, and I was able to trace back to the 13th Century!!!!

Well, I was born and raised here in Chicago, IL, boring USA. Both of my parents were born and raised in Pakistan. (For those of you geographically challenged, including myself, that's the country that directly borders India on the west.) I'm first generation here because my dad went to Canada for his masters degree and then came to the US for his ph.d. During the time he was in the U.S., he went back to Pakistan to get married, and settled back here.

But, if I go back further, before the country of Pakistan was even created, my grandparents were born and lived in Northern India. They migrated to Pakistan once it was created, so in a way, I'm sorta Indian...I don't really know how to explain it. If I go back even further, I'm related to Shah Jahan, this guy who built the Taj Mahal... That's all I really know about my family history, and that my distant ancestors were Persian.

So yeah, I'm Pakistani-American, but I wish I was European, 'cause that would be awesome!! All of my friends are like, "I'm Scottish, German, French, Swiss, and blah blah,",and all I can say is, "I'm Pakistani..." Oh well, I'm proud though!

Whooo....you will wish that you did not ask me this question! For some people it may be as easy as one or two countries, but practically all of my great-grandparents come from a different country!

Let's see...on the Mother's side:
Israeli, Spanish, Russian, Polish, Romanian

And from the Father's side:
Romanian, Turkish, Austrian, Hugarian, Russian, Polish, Israeli

So let's count...a total of 8 different countries (that I know of), wow thats moe than I oiginally expected...
My family also most likely has some German or Italian roots due to the origin of my last name, but as for me, I am American .

Whoa. now I am all tired



_daviD

LOL @ daviD!

Yes, that's a lot of countries!

Mine is much easier--Germany and Ireland.

Though my last name ends in 'sen' which would indicate some Scandahoovian ancestry way back in there somewhere.

Oh my...

Hmm....where do all my family come from.

I live in Scotland, although i was born in England. My dad comes from England, so do his parents...and so on.

My Mum was born in Scotland, her mum was born in scotland, and so on and so on, Her Dad however was born in England, and so on...

So, English and Scotland...talk about confrontational!

Well there isn'T much to say about me

My dad's german
My mum's german
and as i know my grand grand grand grand mother too.....

Are there other germans here? (veritaserum doesnt seem to be very popular in germany...)

okay. things in my family are super confusing so i will make a tree.

my great grandpa (moms grandpa): born in america, but just barely, because his parental units were full-blooded italian, and they came to america on an immigrant ship.

my great great grandma (moms moms grandma): half english, half danish (I am so proud)

my great grandma(moms grandma): 3/4 english, 1/4 danish.

my grandma(moms mom): 1/2 italian, 3/8 english, 1/8 danish

my mommy: 1/4 italian, 3/16 english, 1/16 danish

Moi!:1/8 italian, 3/32 english, 1/32 danish, 3/8 spanish, 1/8 cherokee

my daddy:3/4 spanish, 1/4 cherokee

my grandpa (dads dad):1/2 cherokee, 1/2 spanish
